AI and Deep Learning Systems Show Promise in Diagnosing Brain Tumors in Real Time

Researchers have made significant progress in using artificial intelligence (AI) and deep learning systems to diagnose brain tumors in real time. A recent study published in Nature reveals a method that combines rapid sequencing and deep-learned AI models to classify central nervous system tumors, enabling molecular diagnosis in less than 90 minutes. Dutch researchers have also developed a deep learning system that scans segments of a brain tumor's DNA and identifies certain chemical modifications, providing a detailed diagnosis of the tumor type and subtype. These advancements could lead to more effective treatments and streamline the diagnostic process for brain surgeons.
