Artificial Intelligence for breast cancer detection: Technology, challenges, and prospects
European Journal of Radiology(2024)
摘要
Purpose
This review provides an overview of the current state of artificial intelligence (AI) technology for automated detection of breast cancer in digital mammography (DM) and digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT). It aims to discuss the technology, available AI systems, and the challenges faced by AI in breast cancer screening.
Methods
The review examines the development of AI technology in breast cancer detection, focusing on deep learning (DL) techniques and their differences from traditional computer-aided detection (CAD) systems. It discusses data pre-processing, learning paradigms, and the need for independent validation approaches.
Results
DL-based AI systems have shown significant improvements in breast cancer detection. They have the potential to enhance screening outcomes, reduce false negatives and positives, and detect subtle abnormalities missed by human observers. However, challenges like the lack of standardised datasets, potential bias in training data, and regulatory approval hinder their widespread adoption.
Conclusions
AI technology has the potential to improve breast cancer screening by increasing accuracy and reducing radiologist workload. DL-based AI systems show promise in enhancing detection performance and eliminating variability among observers. Standardised guidelines and trustworthy AI practices are necessary to ensure fairness, traceability, and robustness. Further research and validation are needed to establish clinical trust in AI. Collaboration between researchers, clinicians, and regulatory bodies is crucial to address challenges and promote AI implementation in breast cancer screening.
