AI searches for connections that may indicate that someone may develop lung cancer. This is done based on data from people who have previously had lung cancer.
Detecting lung cancer four months earlier at the GP using AI
General practitioners (GPs) may soon be able to identify patients with an increased risk of lung cancer up to four months earlier than is currently the case. The GP should be able to simply identify patients during a consultation with an algorithm created by researchers at Amsterdam UMC based on the data of more than half a million patients.
AI can find lung cancer months earlier using general practitioner data: study
Researchers of the Amsterdam UMC think that general practitioners will be able to detect lung cancer four months earlier with the aid of artificial intelligence. They wrote about this in a study which was published on Wednesday in the British Journal of General Practice. An algorithm looks at all the medical information that a GP has, the researchers explain. The AI picks up a “predictive signal” in the medical history of the patients. Other stu…
