Our previous webinar guests were Professor Sue Astley and Dr Gillian Hutchison
'The challenges of imaging lobular breast cancer and the potential for AI to help.'
Professor Sue Astley
Professor of Intelligent Medical Imaging, The University of Manchester
Her work is focused on the development and evaluation of imaging biomarkers for breast cancer risk prediction and early detection, and the science underpinning stratified screening. Her research encompasses a range of technologies both for breast density measurement and early detection of cancer. Recent projects include developing AI for risk prediction and early detection of breast cancers from standard and ultra-low-dose mammograms, evaluation of the impact of computer aided detection on reader behaviour and performance, reader variability studies, developing fair and explainable AI, and the use of contrast enhanced mammography for evaluation of breast lesions. Her research is collaborative within a multidisciplinary network of scientists and clinicians in the UK and overseas.
Dr Gillian Hutchison
Consultant Radiologist and Director of Breast Screening, Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust (MFT)
Gillian Hutchison has been a consultant breast radiologist, currently in the Nightingale Breast Unit at Wythenshawe Hospital, MFT. As Director of Breast Screening for Manchester, her main areas of interest are in early detection of breast cancer and personalisation of breast screening. Gillian has contributed to several local, national and international breast studies including Mammo 50, Sloane, LORIS, Forget Me Not, BRAID and Compulse.
