Evidence and review: in-review; source report. Research candidate. Prospective observational cohort, not randomized trial; screening outcomes should not be described as patient survival outcomes.

## AI’s role

AI-based computer-aided detection assisted radiologists.

## What is documented

Study reported higher detection with no statistically significant recall-rate difference in its setting.

## Limitations

Prospective observational cohort, not randomized.

Detection metrics are not mortality outcomes.

## Why follow this?

The study reported a higher cancer-detection rate with no statistically significant recall-rate difference in its setting. It is observational, limited to a particular workflow and does not establish mortality benefit.
