The team also includes researchers from New York University on the five-year grant. "Clinical trials down the road will be our biggest test, but now we will be — for the first time — studying changes in the tissue-scan patterns of patients as they are being treated, and that will provide real-world context of our tools," said Anant Madabhushi, director of Case Western Reserve's Center for Computational Imaging and Personalized Diagnostics, said in a news release. "Our AI tools have excelled in previous studies, but they have all been after-the-fact."
