What happens when AI reads a mammogram? Data journalist Meredith Broussard discusses her experience and diagnosis.
In late 2019, Meredith’s routine mammogram showed an area of concern. Both her doctor and AI — an artificial intelligence program — read her mammogram. Her doctor looked at the images and knew she had cancer, while the AI reading wasn’t so clear.Listen to the episode to hear Meredith explain:
- how AI is taught to read and interpret a mammogram
- the factors a doctor considers when making a diagnosis versus the factors an AI considers
- how bias is introduced into AI
- why she wants a doctor to read her mammogram rather than AI
