In addition to detecting missed lung nodules on X-rays, the AI-powered Qure.ai lung cancer continuum platform reportedly automates lung nodule measurement on CT scans and facilitates multimodality reporting.
Offering multimodality potential in detecting, monitoring, and reporting of lung cancer, Qure.ai will introduce an artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled lung cancer continuum platform at the upcoming 2024 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting in Chicago.
Key attributes of the lung cancer continuum platform include AI-enabled lung nodule measurement and tracking of volumetric growth of disease, according to Qure.ai, the developer of the platform. The company said the lung cancer continuum platform enables monitoring of drug efficacy, provides triage prioritization, and facilitates multimodality reporting.
Qure.ai also emphasized the capability of the lung cancer continuum platform to improve early detection of lung cancer through detection of lung nodules missed on X-rays.
“Artificial intelligence for lung cancer powers early detection, not just as part of existing screening programs, but by finding small pulmonary nodules, often opportunistically, during general health-care imaging procedures,” noted Prashant Warier, the CEO and co-founder of Qure.ai. “This enables earlier identification and referral for imaging or treatment pathways. It also helps overcome the ongoing challenges of low lung cancer screening appointment uptake rates.”
Can Radiomics Bolster Low-Dose CT Prognostic Assessment for High-Risk Lung Adenocarcinoma?
December 16th 2024A CT-based radiomic model offered over 10 percent higher specificity and positive predictive value for high-risk lung adenocarcinoma in comparison to a radiographic model, according to external validation testing in a recent study.
Can AI Facilitate Single-Phase CT Acquisition for COPD Diagnosis and Staging?
December 12th 2024The authors of a new study found that deep learning assessment of single-phase CT scans provides comparable within-one stage accuracies to multiphase CT for detecting and staging chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
Study Shows Merits of CTA-Derived Quantitative Flow Ratio in Predicting MACE
December 11th 2024For patients with suspected or known coronary artery disease (CAD) without percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), researchers found that those with a normal CTA-derived quantitative flow ratio (CT-QFR) had a 22 percent higher MACE-free survival rate.
