Traditional diagnostic methods like mammography, biopsy, and ultrasonography face challenges like diagnostic errors and low sensitivity. Recent advancements in Artificial Intelligence (AI), including deep learning for image analysis and natural language processing for patient data interpretation, have shown promise in enhancing diagnostic capabilities. The integration of these AI techniques with Quantum Machine Learning (QML) leverages quantum parallelism to process high-dimensional medical data and extract intricate imaging patterns more efficiently. This paper provides a comprehensive overview of cancer, its subtypes, symptoms, and the limitations of conventional diagnostics while highlighting the transformative potential of QML in improving diagnostic accuracy and efficiency for breast cancer detection and prognosis. © 2025 IEEE.Artificial IntelligenceBiopsyBreast CancerMammographyQuantum Machine LearningA Comprehensive Survey on Breast Cancer Diagnostics: From Artificial Intelligence to Quantum Machine Learning
