Saeed Hassanpour, PhD, found a machine learning method to predict the likelihood that a high-risk ADH breast lesion is cancerous. The approach can identify 98% of all malignant cases prior to surgery while sparing 16% of women from undergoing an unnecessary operation for a benign lesion. Once confirmed in larger studies, such models can be...

New machine learning method could spare some women from unnecessary breast surgery
Dartmouth researchers led by Saeed Hassanpour, PhD, found a machine learning method to predict the likelihood that a high-risk ADH breast lesion is cancerous. The approach can identify 98% of all malignant cases prior to surgery while sparing 16% of women from undergoing an unnecessary operation for a benign lesion. Once confirmed in larger studies,...
