AI Detects Lung Cancer
Hello all! I worked in computers in a former life so anything to do with advancement in technology interests me quite a bit. I’ve read about how a Radiologist in the UK is working on systems that automatically detect fibrosis on lung scans to help improve the diagnosis rates (I’ll post about this below). This piece of news suggests something similar is being done with diagnosing lung cancer and has been quite successful in early trials. Hopefully this means more funding for research which will aid new tech into circulation. Incredible!
