AI tool spots hidden signs of pancreatic cancer over a year early

An AI system called REDMOD identified hidden signs of pancreatic cancer on scans an average of 475 days before diagnosis and was nearly twice as sensitive as experienced radiologists, according to research in the journal Gut. It detects subtle tissue changes linked to pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, the most common type. Researchers say more testing, especially in high-risk patients, is needed before routine use.
