Early Detection of Pancreatic Cancer Gets Boost from AI
- New research aims to detect pancreatic cancer earlier using AI.
- Pancreatic cancer is often found too late and is expected to become 2nd leading cause of cancer deaths by 2030.
- 70% of pancreatic cancer patients die within 1 year of diagnosis, so early detection is critical.
- Researchers created an AI model using past CT scans to help detect small tumors.
- The AI models are being tested and may eventually be submitted to the FDA for review.
