Anatomy-Guided Deep Learning Is Transforming Breast Cancer Detection in PET-CT Scans

Revolutionary AI Breakthrough: How Anatomy-Guided Deep Learning Is Transforming Breast Cancer Detection in PET-CT Scans

Introduction: The Critical Challenge of Metastatic Breast Cancer Detection Breast cancer remains the most diagnosed cancer among women worldwide, with approximately 3 million new cases detected in 2024 alone. While early-stage breast cancer boasts a nearly 100% five-year survival rate, this figure plummets to just 23% once metastasis occurs. The difference between life and death
