Cancer Survival Predicted by AI Reading Oncologists' Notes
Canadian researchers have demonstrated for the first time that artificial intelligence (AI) can accurately predict how long a patient will survive any cancer simply by reading the oncologist's initial consultation report.
The researchers, from the University of British Columbia (UBC), found that natural language processing, a form of machine learning that analyzes the language in documents, was more than 80% accurate at predicting 6-month, 36-month, and 60-month survival.
Typically, AI applications in cancer require data from structured databases and many are specific to one particular cancer. This new approach transcends both.
