A novel machine learning model could accurately predict which men might benefit most from additional imaging before a prostate biopsy, saving patients both money and discomfort, a new study states.

DBT screenings have higher cancer-detection rates, fewer false positives than 2D mammography

Screening mammography in women ages 40 to 49 detects 19.3 percent more cancers than screening patients ages 50 and older, according to a study to be presented at the American Roentgen Ray Society (ARRS) 2018 Annual Meeting April 22-27 in Washington, D.C.
