Measuring cancer in 0.3 seconds, Japan diagnoses colorectal cancer with artificial intelligence

Release date: 2017-12-27

In Japan, colorectal cancer is the second most common cancer with mortality after lung cancer. For patients, early detection is the most critical step in treatment. Recently, Japan has published an artificial intelligence product that uses artificial intelligence technology to detect whether there is cancer in colorectal polyps in less than a second.

In the diagnostic room of a hospital in Yokohama, Japan, the reporter saw that the doctor had inserted an endoscope that could be magnified 500 times into the patient's stomach. The artificial intelligence system could identify whether the colorectal polyps in the endoscope were cancerous within 0.3 seconds. . Referring to the results of the system's real-time judgment, the doctor can perform an excision on the spot.

“In the past, it took a long week to confirm, and now I can judge whether it needs to be removed.” Professor Kudo Fujimoto of Japan’s Showa University said that the system greatly improved the diagnostic efficiency.

According to reports, the system used a database of more than 60,000 tumor cells during research and development. These images are from more than 3,000 diagnosed cases in five hospitals in Japan. The system analyzes the tumor image in the image library and deep learning, thus forming an automatic recognition function of cancer.

The huge breakthrough in artificial intelligence in the field of cancer cell identification allows doctors to improve efficiency and improve accuracy in the diagnosis process.

It is understood that this artificial intelligence colorectal cancer diagnosis system has been clinically tested in six hospitals in Japan, and is expected to obtain permission from Japan's relevant medical regulatory authorities within 2018.
