Early detection and diagnostics play a crucial role in improving cancer outcomes by identifying the disease at its earliest, most treatable stages. Advances in imaging, blood tests, and biomarker analysis enhance accuracy, leading to timely interventions and better survival rates.

AI-supported breast cancer screening—new results suggest even higher accuracy
New research results now published from Lund University’s MASAI trial are even better than the initial findings from last year: AI-supported breast screening detected 29% more cases of cancer compared with traditional screening. More invasive cancers were also clearly detected at an early stage using AI. Now the final part of the research study will focus on breast cancer missed by screening.
