Chinese AI System Designed to Predict Diabetes Years in Advance

4 Paradigm, a technology company, is working with Ruijin Hospital to develop a new artificial intelligence (AI) system that will help them to identify patients at risk of developing diabetes up to 15 years in advance. The model named Ruining Knows Sugar, or Ruining Zhitang in Chinese, has achieved an accuracy rate of 88% in tests. More...

AI Applied to Micro-Ultrasound Could Speed Cancer Detection

Cambridge Consultants and Exact Imaging are working together to improve the way prostate cancer is visualized and detected by applying deep learning to high-resolution micro-ultrasound imaging. This can help identify potential suspicious regions of tissue and inform urologists who may want to consider this additional data in their biopsy protocol. The early results of their work have been promising. More...

AI Program Could Aid Decision-Making in Medical Imaging

Researchers are developing a first of its kind neural network that explains itself and could help with decision-making in the medical field, among others. Raytheon BBN Technologies is developing the neural network under the Defense Research Project Agency's (DARPA) Explainable Artificial Intelligence program (XAI). The aim of the XAI program is to create a suite of machine learning techniques, which produce more explainable models while maintaining a high level of performance. It also aims to help human users understand, appropriately trust and effectively manage the emerging generation of artificially intelligent partners. More...

Tetris-Like Program Could Speed Up Breast Cancer Detection

A fully automated medical image analysis program to detect breast tumors that uses a unique style to focus on the affected area is being developed by researchers from the University of Adelaide’s Australian Institute for Machine Learning. Using artificial intelligence (AI), the autonomous program in conjunction with an MRI scan employs the traversal movement and style of a retro video game to examine the breast area. More...

Researchers Develop AI Algorithm to Predict Immunotherapy Response

A team of French researchers have designed an algorithm and developed it to analyze Computed Tomography (CT) scan images, establishing for the first time that artificial intelligence (AI) can process medical images to extract biological and clinical information. The researchers have created a so-called radiomic signature, which defines the level of lymphocyte infiltration of a tumor and provides a predictive score for the efficacy of immunotherapy in the patient. More...
