New blood test accurately detects more than 50 types of cancer

Researchers have developed a blood test that could accurately detect up to 50 types of cancers, and some of these detections could be even before the symptoms appear. The test would help physicians detect the origin or the source of cancer within the body explain the researchers from the European Society of Oncology. The study titled, "Sensitive and specific multi-cancer detection and localization using methylation signatures in cell-free DNA," was published in the latest issue of the journal Annals of Oncology.

Hyped claims that AI outdoes doctors at diagnosis could harm patient safety

A number of studies claim that artificial intelligence (AI) does as well or better than doctors at interpreting images and diagnosing medical conditions. However, a recent study published in The BMJ in March 2020 reveals that most of this research is flawed, and the results exaggerated. The outcome could be that the decision to adopt AI as part of patient care is based upon faulty premises, compromising the quality of patient care for millions of people.
