Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer (11.7%) and is a leading cause of cancer death (6.9%). Ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) accounts for about 25% of breast cancer diagnoses. Because it is difficult for clinicians to determine the type and stage of DCIS, patients with DCIS are often overtreated. An interdisciplinary team of researchers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and ETH Zürich developed an AI model that can identify the different stages of DCIS. Their model shows that both the state and arrangement of cells in a tissue sample are important for determining the stage of DCIS. The use of AI in healthcare surpasses expectations and makes a positive impact, from early disease detection to personalized treatment plans. AI can reduce the cost of healthcare and potentially save countless lives in the coming years.

Incredible work by Massachusetts Institute of Technology using #AI to identify tumors early and potentially preventing over-treatment in the future. Ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) is a type of preinvasive tumor that sometimes progresses to a highly deadly form of breast cancer. It accounts for about 25 percent of all breast cancer diagnoses. Because it is difficult for clinicians to determine the type and stage of DCIS, patients with DCIS are often overtreated. To address this, an interdisciplinary team of researchers from #MIT and #ETH Zurich developed an AI model that can identify the different stages of #DCIS from a cheap and easy-to-obtain breast tissue image. Their model shows that both the state and arrangement of cells in a tissue sample are important for determining the stage of DCIS. Researchers can use techniques like multiplexed staining or single-cell RNA sequencing to determine the stage of DCIS in tissue samples. However, these tests are too expensive to be performed widely. This is where #AI can really shine in patient diagnosis and Clinician decision support. #dayone #ai #insights #oncology https://lnkd.in/grDPUnGb

AI is making progress by leaps and bounds, and I believe this is just the beginning. The latest breakthrough from MIT researchers on early detection certain types of breast cancer just highlights the AI's transformative potential, What it does is ; • It can detect breast cancer up to 5 years before clinical diagnosis! • Analyzes chromatin images to identify 8 distinct cell states in early-stage cancer • Can detect cancer indicators invisible to the human eye and much more. Just a few years ago, this level of early detection seemed like science fiction. Now, it's on the cusp of revolutionizing cancer diagnosis and potentially saving countless lives. We're not just improving existing processes – we're unlocking entirely new capabilities that were previously unimaginable. #ai #humans #innovation #technology #future #AIAdvancement #FutureOfHealthcare #TechForGood #AI #Cancer https://lnkd.in/dak2DjDY

Researchers at the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) achieved an advance with the development of a test enabling early detection of cancer. The ability to detect a developing tumour at a very early stage and to closely monitor the success or failure of cancer therapy is crucial for a patient’s survival. A breakthrough on both counts has now been achieved by researchers at PSI. Using artificial intelligence (AI), the scientists were able to distinguish between healthy and sick people with about 85 percent accuracy. In addition, they managed to correctly determine the type of tumour disease – melanoma, glioma, or head and neck tumour, which is the first time anyone, worldwide, has achieved this. https://lnkd.in/e2tYTq8J #cancerresearch #artificialintelligence #seniorcare

AI model identifies certain breast tumor stages likely to progress to invasive cancer A new AI model developed by researchers from Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and ETH Zürich can accurately identify the stages of ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS), a preinvasive breast cancer, from simple breast tissue images. This model, which considers both the state and spatial arrangement of cells, aims to address the common issue of overtreatment by offering a more precise diagnosis. The research highlights that spatial organization of cells is crucial for determining the cancer stage. This model, trained on a large dataset, showed high agreement with pathologists' evaluations and could streamline the diagnosis process. This AI tool, which can be adapted for other cancers and neurodegenerative diseases, represents a significant advancement in using affordable imaging techniques for accurate disease staging.
