Researchers used CT scans to develop an AI algorithm using radiomics.
This is a quantitative approach which extracts novel data and predictive biomarkers from medical imaging.
Research algorithm superior to current technology
NSCLC patients make up 85% of lung cancer cases.
In the study, the AI algorithm built by the researchers scored 0.87.
This can be compared to the 0.67 score of the technology currently in use.
The UK is teeming with AI healthtech startups.
Many are focused on drug development, genomic analysis or more consumer-centric telehealth symptom checking and wearables.
However, some are intent on improving disease detection and diagnosis.
The rest of Europe also has its fair share of diagnostic AI startups.
Among them are Liege-based Radiomics.
The company focuses on the detection and phenotypic quantification of solid tumours based on standard-of-care imaging.
The companys founders also say it could help guide the selection of therapy to avoid over- and undertreatment.
