It was a pleasure to meet Professor Ivana Isgum, Amsterdam University Medical Center, at the ECCO 2019 European Cancer Summit in Brussels to discuss her perspective on the very important topic of artificial Intelligence, its impact on cancer care and what we can expect in the future.
Questions
1. How extensively is artificial intelligence (AI) currently used in cancer care? Are there any cancer treatment centres using AI, or is it a future tool for cancer management? (0:10)
2. Is there any clinical evidence showing that AI can speed diagnosis and/or improve outcomes in cancer? (00:38)
3. What current and future roles might AI have in cancer diagnosis and screening and is this better than traditional methods or should it be used alongside them? Are there some cancer types that are more suitable for AI involvement? (1:34)
4. Does AI have a current or future role in designing personalised treatment regimens and monitoring responses? (2:30)
5. Can AI use existing clinical trial and real-world data to better detect cancers and recommend optimal care? (3:30)
Ivana Isgum has no conflicts of interest to declare in relation to this video.
