CADe Tool for Pancreatic Cancer

AI Annotation

The suspicious regions in the pancreas are annotated for further review with the original image for comparison when the patient is determined as having pancreatic cancer.

On the user interface, the column on the right shows positive and negative cases with red and green light. Red light indicates positive cases and green light represents negative.  

           Pancreatic Cancer: The Invisible Killer

Pancreatic cancer (PC) is the most lethal cancer and ranks as the seventh and third leading cause of cancer deaths in Taiwan and the US, respectively. Early detection is vital, because the 5 year survival rate after surgery drops from 80% to 20% once the tumor grows beyond 2 cm. Computed tomography (CT) is the major tool for detecting PC, but approximately 40% of tumors less than 2 cm are missed on CT. Therefore, an effective tool to enhance detection for PC is an urgent unmet clinical need.
