Artificial Intelligence, 'Virtual Biopsies' May Be The Future Of Understanding Brain Tumors

Artificial intelligence is being used increasingly in medicine to make services more efficient and improve patient care. Now, local researchers plan to use the technology to perform "virtual biopsies" of brain tumors. Steven Hibbert considered himself a healthy guy. Then suddenly his life changed on a dime. "I was just kind of sitting there, reading the paper, and went into a seizure," said Hibbert. The 55-year-old Cape Cod resident was rushed to the hospital and got the news no one wants to hear.
