Today, I am going to talk about how AI is already making a significant impact in the realm of breast cancer diagnosis, particularly in the critical task of reading mammograms.

In the realms of breast health, early detection plays an important role, and that's where AI comes into play, particularly in reading screening mammograms. These mammograms are performed as part of a screening program where patients do not usually have any symptoms like lumps for example.

In the UK, you are eligible to enroll in the screening program when you reach the age of between 47 to 50 years old and you will get a screening mammogram once every three years.

AI algorithms have been trained to analyze mammograms, which are X-ray images of breast tissue. These algorithms are designed to detect subtle patterns, masses, as well as micro-calfications that might indicate the presence of breast cancer. And here is where it gets exciting.

Breast health has become an important topic for both women and men. But with a huge amount of conflicting and confusing information out there, it can be hard to find the advice, support and care that you need.

My Breast My Health was created to make understanding breast health easy. Whether you’re looking to learn how to keep your breasts healthy, concerned about new symptoms or learning to live post-diagnosis, you’re in the right place.

Hi, I'm Dr Tasha

I’m a Doctor, Breast Cancer Surgeon and Medical Educator. After 20 years helping people to understand and overcome breast health problems, I’ve seen first hand the fear, frustration and stress that my patients go through.

As a breast specialist with over a decade’s worth of experience, I understand finding the right information, processing a diagnosis, understanding treatment and getting accurate, practical advice as you ride the rollercoaster of emotions can be really tough.

But I’m here to help.

The internet can be a wonderful source of information but when it comes to breast health there’s a lot of inaccurate information out there. Listening to the wrong advice could cause you unnecessary worry or even put your health at risk.

So I wanted to create an accessible hub where you could find useful, accurate and reliable information from a trusted source – a Breast Health Doctor – all in one place.

That’s exactly what you’ll find here on my YouTube Channel.
