The Reading Room Podcast: Emerging Concepts in Breast Cancer Screening and Health Equity Implications, Part 1

For DBT breast cancer screening, 47 percent of radiologist-only flagged false positives involved mass presentations whereas 40 percent of AI-only flagged false positive cases involved benign calcifications, according to research presented at the recent American Roentgen Ray Society (ARRS) conference.

In a new podcast, Mahadevappa Mahesh, MS, Ph.D., and Joseph Cavallo, M.D., share their perspectives on recently published research looking at projections for future radiation-induced cancers from computed tomography (CT) scans.

Seniors who had at least one prior screening mammography exam in the five years prior to breast cancer diagnosis were over a third less likely to die from breast cancer, according to new research.

In a new podcast, Satoshi Minoshima, M.D., Ph.D., and James Williams, Ph.D., share their insights on the recently updated appropriate use criteria for amyloid PET and tau PET in patients with mild cognitive impairment.

A systematic review of 147 clinical trials assessing neoadjuvant systemic therapy for breast cancer also revealed that mid-treatment imaging was utilized in 56 percent of the studies.

While standalone AI interpretation offered over 10 percent higher sensitivity than radiologists for patients undergoing post-mastectomy surveillance mammography, it missed over 30 percent of breast cancers.
