International Application of Artificial Intelligence for Lesion Detection on Digital Breast Tomosynthesis: Comparing Western and Eastern Databases
Rationale and objectives The international application of artificial intelligence (AI) for lesion detection based on digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) is limited due to disease variations among populations. We hypothesized that lesion detection models trained on either the Western or Eastern DBT dataset would exhibit reduced performance on another dataset. We proposed transfer learning to enhance lesion detection across DBT databases. Materials and methods The Western database (94 patients) was obtained from th…
Transfer learning enhanced AI lesion detection performance when models were adapted from one regional DBT database to another.
AI lesion detection models trained on Western or Eastern DBT data showed reduced performance when applied to the other population due to differences in lesion types.
Findings are based on small samples of 94 and 157 patients with Eastern data from a single anonymous center, limiting broad international generalizability.

How to verify without trusting this page
Fetch the canonical text of any version from /api/record/TRV-2026-0908 and hash it yourself — for example shasum -a 256 on the saved canonical field. The result must equal content_hash, and each version’s text ends with prev:followed by the prior version’s hash (version 1 chains to 64 zeros). If a single character of any version had been altered since certification, the chain would not reproduce.
