1. The artificial intelligence used by Google’s DeepMind more accurately diagnosed breast cancer in women compared to six U.S. physicians, leading to fewer false positives and false negatives. In a Jan. 1 study published in Nature, the AI reduced the number of false positives, where a mammogram incorrectly diagnoses an X-ray as abnormal, by 5.7 percent among U.S. patients. Additionally, there was a 9.4 percent reduction in false negatives, which is when the cancer goes undetected.
2. A two-part approach combining AI and real-time imaging technology provided neurosurgeons with more...
