AI, cancer, therapeuticsAbstract
In 2020 alone, there were an estimated 9.7 million cancer-related deaths and 20 million new cancer diagnoses worldwide. (1). Routinely used cancer therapeutics and treatments have proven short of what is needed, and as a result new treatment methods are required to treat individual patient needs. Therefore, artificial intelligence (AI) has been a driving force behind the push for precision medicine. This review discusses how cancer is caused, current treatment methods, and how AI is implemented to improve current treatments. As cancer continues to be a significant global health issue, AI offers new methods for better understanding and diagnosing the disease to improve patient outcomes.
