A Swedish study found that using artificial intelligence in breast cancer screening reduced later cancer diagnoses by 12%.
Researchers studied 100,000 women undergoing mammography screening between 2021 and 2022.
Women received either AI-supported screening or standard double readings by radiologists.
The AI system flagged high-risk cases and reduced workload for doctors.
The AI group showed higher early detection rates and fewer aggressive cancers.
The study was led by Lund University and published in The Lancet.
Experts welcomed the results but stressed AI should support, not replace, radiologists.
