AI can now predict if a woman will get breast cancer

Researchers from MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) and Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) have created a deep learning model that can predict if a woman will get breast cancer in the future based on a mammogram she has done today.

The researchers trained the AI by having it review mammograms and the known outcomes from more than 60,000 patients treated at MGH. The AI was then able to learn to identify the subtle patterns in breast tissue that are precursors to cancer.
