Researchers have developed an artificial intelligence which can differentiate cancer cells from normal cells, as well as detect the very early stages of viral infection inside cells. The findings pave the way for improved diagnostic techniques and new monitoring strategies for disease. The AI can detect rearrangements inside cells as small as 20nm, or 5,000 times smaller than the width of a human hair.

AI software can help increase detection of interval cancers on screening mammograms that were missed by two human readers, according to research published August 27 in Radiology. A research team led by first author Muzna Nanaa, PhD, and senior author Prof. Fiona Gilbert, MD, of the University of Cambridge in the U.K. found that at a high specificity threshold, a commercial AI algorithm detected nearly one in four missed interval cancers.
