Tsai predicts that AI will one day help doctors analyze complicated genetic data — a hallmark of precision medicine.
Together, AI imaging and genetic analysis may help doctors rapidly pinpoint a diagnosis and create a highly personalized treatment plan, thus improving a patient's care.
AI and the potential for genetic analysisIn addition to medical imaging, AI could one day comb through large amounts of genetic information, a challenging task for researchers.
A possible convergence in the clinicWang does not see combining AI imaging and AI genetic analysis at the doctor's office happening within the next couple of years.
Chang and his colleagues are investigating how AI analysis of brain scans can predict genetic mutations in brain tumors.
