Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
The use of artificial intelligence software in breast screening (Transpara®) makes it possible to identify studies with a very low probability of cancer. The hypothesis raised in this work is that reading strategies based on artificial intelligence (single or double reading only of cases with a score\> 7 with Transpara®), allow reducing the workload of a screening program by more than 50 % with respect to the standard reading of the program (double reading of all cases without Transpara®), without presenting inferiority in terms of detection rates and recalls of the program, both with the use of 2D digital mammography and with the use of tomosynthesis or 3D mammogram.

- Assessment of Workload of each strategy
- timeFrame
- In the middle of the study, at 1 year.
- description
- The workload of each strategy shall be assessed by multiplying the average time for a reading of that strategy by the total number of readings of that strategy. The average reading time of a case in each strategy shall be calculated from the measurement of the individual reading time in a sample of 500 cases in each strategy.
