RESUMO
Breast cancer, the most prevalent malignant tumor among women, poses a significant threat to patients' physical and mental well-being. Recent advances in early screening technology have facilitated the early detection of an increasing number of breast cancers, resulting in a substantial improvement in patients' overall survival rates. The primary techniques used for early breast cancer diagnosis include mammography, breast ultrasound, breast MRI, and pathological examination. However, the clinical interpretation and analysis of the images produced by these technologies often involve significant labor costs and rely heavily on the expertise of clinicians, leading to inherent deviations. Consequently, artificial intelligence(AI) has emerged as a valuable technology in breast cancer diagnosis. Artificial intelligence includes Machine Learning(ML) and Deep Learning(DL). By simulating human behavior to learn from and process data, ML and DL aid in lesion localization reduce misdiagnosis rates, and improve accuracy. This narrative review provides a comprehensive review of the current research status of mammography using traditional ML and DL algorithms. It particularly highlights the latest advancements in DL methods for mammogram image analysis and offers insights into future development directions.
