By Heather Waliga Verified| WBIR-TV (Knoxville, TN) Verified KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — It's been months since Linda Meyers walked through the doors of Mosaic Breast Imaging for her first mammogram. The 44-year-old endocrinologist suspected a breast cancer diagnosis was inevitable given her family history. But she never expected it to be detected with the help of artificial intelligence. "I was filling out the paperwork, and it had this box that was like, 'Do you want AI to read your image for $20?' and on sort of a lark, I was like, 'Oh, why not?,'"Meyers said.

"I had a domestic there one day," Bowling recounts while driving through the area. But one call last summer caught him off guard. During a traffic stop, Bowling and his partner found a man barricaded inside his car with a shotgun.
