Research team uses AI to predict risk of liver cancer

by UC Davis Credit: Pixabay/CC0 Public DomainA team of UC Davis Health clinicians and data scientists has developed a machine-learning model to better predict which patients are at greater risk of developing a common type of liver cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The findings of their research—published in the journal Gastro Hep Advances—describe how predictive-learning can aid...
