A new artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm is effective at accurately identifying cancer, according to a recent report. The study compared the AI algorithm with currently used methods of cancer detection and found that it outperformed them in accuracy.
The AI algorithm was able to identify malignant tumors with an accuracy rate of 93%, while current methods had an average accuracy rate of only 85%. In addition, the AI system was also faster than traditional systems in detecting cancers; it took just 0.5 seconds for the AI system to detect a tumor whereas current systems took up to 10 minutes or longer depending on its complexity.
This breakthrough could potentially revolutionize how we diagnose and treat cancer moving forward as this technology is more accurate and efficient than existing techniques, which can help save lives by providing quicker diagnosis times for patients who may have otherwise gone undiagnosed due to slow diagnosis times from conventional methods. Further research into this technology must continue so that we can ensure its efficacy and safety before implementing it into clinical practice worldwide.
