🔬REDMOD Detects Pancreatic Cancer 475 Days Early

AI spots cancer years before symptoms show

REDMOD, an AI system, can detect pancreatic cancer 475 days before diagnosis, nearly doubling the sensitivity of radiologists. This early detection could significantly improve treatment outcomes, as pancreatic cancer is often discovered only after it has advanced. The system analyzes subtle changes in pancreatic tissue texture, known as radiomics, and was tested on 219 patients' CT scans, with 73% sensitivity compared to 39% for radiologists. This breakthrough could transform how pancreatic cancer is diagnosed and treated.
