EL PAIS: CERN trains AI models to revolutionize cancer treatment. “One of the applications based on this system is Truckstroke, which is already improving stroke treatment with artificial intelligence in around 10,000 patients in hospitals in Germany and Belgium and in the Vall d’Hebron Stroke Unit in Barcelona.”….. “For the moment, explains Serio, it has been used for tumors or strokes, but CERN also plans to use this system to monitor the evolution of Alzheimer’s or dementia.” Comment: Breast cancer detected by BreastCheck 2017, now a cancer survivor I had by year follow-up mammogram today.
