AI trained to think like pathologists may better detect cancer; new assistant reads whole slides
According to the Pathology-COT approach published in Nature Biomedical Engineering, AI trained to reason like human pathologists may identify cancer better (Live Science, 12 Sept). A separate new AI assistant reads whole pathology slides and answers clinicians' questions.
Who is affected and how
- doctor
- For pathologists, models that give their reasoning are easier to audit, but they are not yet clinically validated.
- medtech company
- Explainable, step-by-step reasoning models can be a differentiator in the digital pathology market.
