AI Software to Help Early Detection of Lung Cancer

A team of experts in lung cancer, machine learning and medical technology product development has come together to address a huge and growing problem in lung cancer diagnosis, the management of patients presenting with indeterminate pulmonary nodules. The researchers have developed the world’s first image-based decision support software for improving patient management and reducing unnecessary follow-up procedures. More...
