No alt text provided for this image

In September 2021 AI researchers at the AI Precision Health Institute at the University of Hawai?i Cancer Center published two high profile papers demonstrating for the first time that deep learning can distinguish between mammograms of women who will develop breast cancer and those who will not. In one paper the researchers confirmed that invasive breast lesions have unique compositional signatures and demonstrated that compositional profiles of the breast combined with CAD predictions can improve the detection of malignant breast cancer. In the other paper researchers showed that?deep learning models performed better than models using clinical?risk factors in determining screening-detected cancer risk. There are multiple AI algorithms approved by the FDA for detecting breast cancer. The best of these algorithms have a sensitivity of 82% in the detection of breast cancer, with a fixed specificity of 96.6%. Using this deep learning algorithm with a radiologist improved the sensitivity by 8% - from 82% to 90%.

Note: I'm on the advisory board at the AI Precision Health Institute. I follow their work closely and I frequently write about their research.

No alt text provided for this image

In 2021 Yuri Belotti, PhD, Doorgesh Sharma Jokhun, PhD, and Professor?Chwee Teck (C.T.) Lim at National University of Singapore?developed a novel protocol for single-cell classification based on intracellular pH. Since cancer cells have different intracellular acidity than normal cells, they developed an AI algorithm that identifies cancer cells based on the level of acidity. They used a pH-sensitive dye that changes color according to the level of acidity. Using AI they were able to quantitatively map the unique acidic fingerprints so that the cell types examined could be easily and accurately identified. The researchers were able to discriminate between normal and cancer cells, discriminate between benign and metastatic cells, and classify cancer cells that originated from different organs. Using AI and inexpensive equipment they were able to identify live cancer cells in less than 35 minutes with 95% accuracy. This novel method opens up the potential to perform rapid noninvasive identification of living cancer cells for early cancer diagnosis and further downstream analyses.

No alt text provided for this image

In December 2021 Gleamer AI demonstrated that their algorithm can quickly detect and flag X-rays with positive fractures helping hospitals reduce missed fractures by 29%. Due to the large number of X-rays that have to be read by radiologists, patients often have to wait hours in the ER before they can be seen, evaluated, and receive treatment.?Fracture interpretation errors represent 24% of harmful diagnostic errors in the ER. Inconsistencies in diagnosis of fractures are most common between 5pm and 3am due in part to fatigue. In this retrospective diagnostic study, a dataset of 480 X-rays was read by 24 readers who assessed the X-rays with and without AI.?To simulate real life scenario the study included readers from many disciplines including radiologists, orthopedic surgeons, emergency physicians, physician assistants, rheumatologists, and family physicians, all of whom read X-rays real clinical practice to diagnose fractures in their patients. Each reader’s diagnostic accuracy of fractures, with and without AI assistance, were compared against the gold standard. They also assessed the diagnostic performance of AI alone against the gold standard. The AI model was trained on a large x-ray data set from multiple hospitals to identify?limb, pelvis, torso, lumbar spine, and rib cage?fractures. The AI increased sensitivity by 16% for exams with 1 fracture and by 30% for exams with more than 1 fracture.?The?AI algorithm can quickly detect and flag X-rays with positive fractures so that radiologists can prioritize reading them.
