The current standard of care for identifying targetable mutations in cancer treatment is to conduct molecular profiles on tumor tissue samples, but a study published in JAMA Network Open indicates that adding liquid biopsy testing for circulating tumor DNA mutations increases targetable mutation detection rates.

AI may be more accurate vs. traditional methods at classifying patients into prostate cancer risk groups

For localized prostate cancer, multimodal artificial intelligence models have revealed a more accurate way to assess prostate cancer risk.  By combining advanced artificial intelligence with digital pathology images and clinical data, researchers developed a way to approach risk classification that outperforms traditional methods. These findings were published in JCO Precision Oncology. The research found that...
