Dr. Ali Bashashati at the Vancouver Coastal Health Research Institute uses novel technique to address diagnosis of the deadliest female reproductive cancer, ovarian cancer. In his research, Dr. Bashashati had pathologists with expertise in gynaecological cancers classify ovarian cancer in 948 tissue specimens. When these expert classifications were compared against an AI algorithm’s, the computer model was very accurate. This study shows promising results in the potential that AI may have in providing diagnoses in an optimal time window to ultimately enhance patient outcomes.
