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. The system in Ireland is much criticised but I have to say I have found the service excellent. It is a pity that Ireland is not more visionary because, I may be wrong, but we are not members of CERN. I think they offered us a reduced amount to join. Read below and it is enlightening in regard to health and our future.
