Population screening for lung cancer: the use of AI in mass screening


Listen Later

The topic of this podcast is the use of AI in early detection of lung cancer through  screening of medical images with the help of AI. Since lungs do not have pain nerves, lung cancer is often diagnosed in a late stage. But mass screening of lung images in a population screening setting is practically impossible without the help of technology. This leads to several, often non-technical, questions: what is the role of the radiologist, do we trust the AI, who is responsible for missing diagnoses and what about false positives. For this episode we will dive into the technical possibilities as well as the necessary condition of using AI in medical imaging on larger scale.My guests in this podcast are:

  • Mathias Prokop, professor of radiology in Radboudumc
  • Colin Jacobs, principal investigator at Radboudumc
  • and Jan Woetzel, head of product management at Mevis medical solutions from Germany

  • Moderate is Martijn Kriens from Briskr
