A major Swedish study found that using AI in breast cancer screening reduced later cancer diagnoses by 12%.
Researchers studied 100,000 women and compared AI-supported mammography with standard double readings.
AI helped detect more cancers early and flagged high-risk scans for closer review.
Eighty-one percent of cancers in the AI group were found at screening, compared with 74% in standard screening.
The AI group also showed 27% fewer aggressive cancer subtypes.
Researchers say AI could ease radiologist workloads but should not replace human expertise.
