IIT-G Team Develops AI-Powered System To Detect Colorectal Cancer

Indian Institute of Technology-Guwahati's research team and scientists from international institutes have created an automatic Artificial Intelligence-run system for detecting colorectal cancer. The experts said that colorectal cancer, the third most prevalent cancer among Indians, could be cured through an early diagnosis. Relatedly, instead of the conventional manual and risk-ridden detection method of inserting a camera in the patient's colon, the innovation enables physicians to obtain AI-powered colonoscopy images for a timely diagnosis.
