AI tops density in predicting breast cancer risk

A new AI image-only model has been shown to provide stronger and more precise risk stratification for five-year breast cancer prediction than traditional breast density assessment. The model was trained on 421,499 mammograms and showed a fourfold higher cancer incidence in high-risk women compared to those with average risk.

Synthetic stress hormone dexamethasone could reduce breast cancer metastases

Researchers discovered that synthetic stress hormone dexamethasone can combat therapy-resistant breast cancer metastases in mice trials.
