Evaluation of physician performance using a concurrent-read artificial intelligence system to support breast ultrasound interpretation

•A reader study was conducted to compare the breast ultrasound interpreting performance without and with the aid of AI system.•The performance of breast ultrasound interpretation was improved by the AI system as a concurrent reading aid.•The breast ultrasound interpretation time is significantly reduced by the AI system as a concurrent reading aid.•The reproducibility experiments of the same lesion cropped by different rectangular proved the robustness of the AI system.
