Doctors in Hungary are developing an artificial intelligence algorithm that can identify breast cancer four years before it emerges, reports the New York Times.
The AI, also known as computer-assisted detection, picks out areas in mammograms for doctors to carefully examine.
According to a study from MIT, the technology can pinpoint regions that are susceptible to cancer development and recognize changes between mammograms. Years later, the spots discovered turned into breast cancer.
Larry Norton, MD, medical director of the Lauder Breast Cancer program stated that AI is a tool radiologists may utilize to develop better treatment regimens. Radiologists can assess what additional tests may be necessary for patients to lower their risk of developing cancer after locating the problem areas.
