Handheld ultrasound + AI could bring breast cancer screening to remote areas

This study tests a low-cost, portable ultrasound device (POCUS) combined with artificial intelligence to detect breast cancer in women with suspicious symptoms. The goal is to see if this approach works as well as standard imaging, especially in places where expensive equipment is not available. About 600 women will take part, and the study will also check how well the AI can analyze the ultrasound images on its own.
