A Swedish trial found AI-supported breast screening reduced later cancer diagnoses by 12% and improved early detection rates.
Researchers studied 100,000 women using AI-assisted mammography or standard double readings by radiologists.
The AI flagged high-risk scans, streamlined low-risk cases, and supported clinical decisions.
The study, published in The Lancet, showed more cancers detected during screening.
Experts say AI could ease radiologist workloads but must complement, not replace, human expertise.
