NCI Builds AI Models to Enhance Imaging, Improve Therapies
AI models are helping NCI researchers better identify malignancies through MRI-guided biopsies.
The National Cancer Institute’s new Artificial Intelligence Resource (AIR) program is helping clinicians better diagnose and treat cancer patients. AIR enables researchers to build AI models that help to better detect cancer through imaging and determine the best treatment options.
Dr. Baris Turkbey, senior clinician and radiologist with the Molecular Imaging Branch at NCI, explained the role AI algorithms play in classifying bone lesions in metastatic prostate cancer as well as how AI impacts the radiation dose in CT scans.
Turkbey also shares details about a new concept NCI is researching called multimodal AI, which processes data from multiple modalities and sources to create more robust outputs.
