Hopes and Hypes for Artificial Intelligence in Colorectal Cancer Screening
Yuichi Mori, Michael Bretthauer, Mette Kalager
Abstract
There is great interest in artificial intelligence (AI) in health care. As with many innovations in medicine, there is a fine line between potential benefits and harms with the use of AI. This is especially important for preventive services such as cancer screening, where the trade-off between benefits and harms is delicate and involves millions of individuals. This Commentary clarifies clinical challenges of AI in cancer screening programs and explores solutions that can enable its optimal implementation.
