Artificial intelligence facilitates the diagnosis of cancer.. How?

Experts have pointed out that artificial intelligence can help the British National Health Service overcome the "manpower crisis" in the field of radiology. According to a pilot study, artificial intelligence was able to classify ordinary chest radiation with an accuracy of 99.7%, which shows the potential to speed up cancer diagnosis.

The Frimley Foundation of the British National Health Service is experimenting with the "KXR" platform, to emphasize the usefulness of artificial intelligence with regard to differentiating between normal and abnormal chest rays.

The institution used 576 chest x-rays, while Cure's artificial intelligence platform was able to identify normal x-rays with an accuracy of 99.7%.

The researchers said using the platform could save consultants up to two hours a day by allowing radiologists to transmit x-rays for reading.
