Description
Gisella Gennaro, Stefano Trazzi, Valentina Bordon, and Vania Galli compare two grading tools for breast screening in a 2026 study. Positioning quality decides whether a mammogram can be trusted, and a four grade scale names it from perfect to inadequate. Two automated tools claim to apply that scale. The team ran both over one screening cohort of 778 women and 3,112 views.
Agreement was scored exactly and with weighted statistics, overall and by view, density, and breast size. Imaging settings were also weighed against the grades each tool gave. If the tools disagree, screening programs cannot swap them freely. The head to head record tells quality teams how far automation can yet be trusted.
