Do You Have Early Signs Of Cervical Cancer? How AI Technology May Help

What role will AI play in cervical cancer screening? Will artificial intelligence, otherwise known as AI, soon be at your cervix to help prevent and detect cancer? A study recently published in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute showed how AI could serve as an extra eye to help doctors find pre-cancerous and cancerous lesions in the part of your body that connects your vagina with your uterus. As I've written previously for Forbes, each year cervical cancer kills around 265,000 women worldwide, but a majority of deaths could be quite preventable. Besides getting the human papilloma virus (HPV) vaccine, the key to preventing cervical cancer is getting regular pelvic exams so that concerning lesions can be caught early.
