AI tool spots cancers missed by doctors | BBC News

An AI tool tested by the NHS successfully identified tiny signs of breast cancer in 11 women which had been missed by human doctors. The tool, called Mia, was piloted alongside NHS clinicians and analysed the mammograms of over 10,000 women. Most of them were cancer-free, but it successfully flagged all of those with symptoms, as well as an extra 11 the doctors did not identify. At their earliest stages, cancers can be extremely small and hard to spot. Subscribe here: http://bit.ly/1rbfUog For more news, analysis and features visit: www.bbc.com/news #AI #Health #BBCNews
