New AI-Based Method Could Enable Better Treatment of Advanced Bowel Cancer Written by AZoRoboticsApr 23 2021 A new study reports that a test that employs artificial intelligence (AI) to measure proteins found in certain patients suffering from advanced bowel cancer could enable more targeted treatment. The main image is of a colorectal cancer. To the left of the black line is how the image would appear down a microscope. The image to the right of the line is how it would look once the artificial intelligence algorithm has been used to label the cancer cells with dots. The red dots highlight the cells which contain the EREG protein and the green dots are EREG negative. Image Credit: Copyright Roche Diagnostics.
