Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) is enabling us to delve deeply into the information inherent in a mammogram and identify novel features associated with high risk of a future breast cancer diagnosis. Here, we discuss how AI is improving mammographic density-associated risk prediction and shaping the future of screening and risk-reducing strategies.

Keywords: artificial intelligence; breast cancer risk; breast cancer screening; deep learning; mammographic breast density; mammography.
