Abstract

Abstract Breast cancer is one of the most common and deadly cancers in women. Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) accounts for approximately 10-15% of breast cancer diagnoses and is an aggressive molecular breast cancer subtype associated with important challenges in its diagnosis, treatment, and prognostication. This poses an urgent need for developing more effective and personalized imaging biomarkers for TNBC. Toward this direction, artificial intelligence (AI) for radiologic imaging holds a prominent role, leveraging unique advantages of radiologic breast images, being used routinely for TNBC diagnosis, staging, and treatment planning, and offering high-resolution whole-tumor visualization, combined with the immense potential of AI to elucidate anatomical and functional properties of tumors that may not be easily perceived by the human eye. In this review, we synthesize the current state-of-the-art radiologic imaging applications of AI in assisting TNBC diagnosis, treatment, and prognostication. Our goal is to provide a comprehensive overview of radiomic and deep-learning-based AI developments and their impact on advancing TNBC management over the last decade (2013-2024). For completeness of the review, we start with a brief introduction of AI, radiomics and deep learning. Next, we focus on clinically relevant AI-based diagnostic, predictive and prognostic models for radiologic breast images evaluated in TNBC. We conclude with opportunities and future directions for AI towards advancing diagnosis, treatment response predictions and prognostic evaluations for TNBC.
