A paper titled “Deep Learning and Transfer Learning for Brain Tumor Detection and Classification” published in Biology Methods and Protocols shows that scientists can train artificial intelligence (AI) models to distinguish brain tumors from healthy tissue. AI models can already find brain tumors in MRI images almost as well as a human radiologist.

Researchers have made sustained progress in AI for use in medicine. AI is particularly promising in radiology, where waiting for technicians to process can delay patient treatment. Convolutional neural networks are powerful tools that allow researchers to train AI models on large image datasets to recognize and classify images.

In this way, the networks can “learn” to distinguish between pictures. The networks also have the...
