The impact of AI on healthcare is growing every day.A great deal of work is being done to improve the effectiveness of cancer diagnosis in its early stages, where medical imaging is essential.Breast cancer is alarmingly on the rise among women, with an Indian woman receiving a breast cancer diagnosis every four minutes.Even though breast cancer is treatable, early detection of the condition is crucial to a positive prognosis.Mammograms were once the only method for identifying breast cancer.Mammography, however, is ineffective for women of all ages, leading to an excessive number of false positive and false negative cases.This has severe effects.This experimental paper describes utilizing an LSTM (Long Short-Term Memory Network),deep learning technique to get around this constraint.It is an advanced recurrent neural network, that can solve the vanishing gradient issue, that the recurrent neural network encounters when attempting to identify the malignant region in mammograms.After receiving approval from the scientific and ethical committee, this experiment was carried out using the Real Time Data set of mammograms obtained from a hospital with 1250 beds.In this experimental study, a total of 1646 mammogram images from 414 patients were used.Among the real-time mammography data set, the LSTM algorithm provided a detection accuracy of more than 90% for the signs of breast cancer, by providing a relevant Bi-RADS score.
