Speakers
Fredrik Strand
Fredrik Strand is a Swedish breast radiologist and associate professor at Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm. He holds MD, PhD and MSc(Eng) degrees. Fredrik is head of the research and education committee at the Swedish society of breast imaging. His academic research evolves around exploring AI for cancer imaging. He and his team are involved in developing new AI models, performing reader studies, evaluating external models and supporting hospitals in implementing AI. The primary focus is on mammography images, but increasingly both MRI and ultrasound images are being incorporated. He is the principal investigator in two clinical trials using AI in the screening workflow: ScreenTrustCAD and ScreenTrustMRI. The long-term aim is to leverage AI on multi-modal images to improve outcome for women with breast cancer through earliest detection and optimal treatment.
Title: “Clinical trials of AI in Breast Cancer Screening – for Cancer Detection and for Risk-stratified Supplemental Imaging”
Breast cancer screening is becoming an increasingly mature field for AI applications. For many years, retrospective studies indicated the potential of using AI image analysis to modify the reading workflow. Now, the time for prospective interventional trials has come. The talk will focus on our two recently published clinical trials using AI to replace the read of a radiologist (ScreenTrustCAD) and to select women for supplemental screening with MRI (ScreenTrustMRI). Learning from these trials, alternative implementations of AI in the screening workflow will be discussed.
