As a matter of fact, there can be remarkable variation in the types of cancer cells among patients, even with the same cancer type. In view of the variation, it is necessary to identify the particular cell types for choosing the best treatment option. However, the current methods of doing so are time-consuming and often restricted by human error and limits of human sight.<\/p>\n

In the new method involving artificial intelligence, the limitations of humans could be overcome by scanning the microscopic images of cancer cells and eliciting the nature of the cells with high accuracy than human judgment. In essence, the system is based on a convolutional neural network, a form of artificial intelligence modelled on the human visual system. During the studies, the artificial based system was applied to distinguish cancer cells in mice as well as humans.<\/p>\n

We first trained our system on 8,000 images of cells obtained from a phase-contrast microscope,” one of the researchers said. “We then tested its accuracy on another 2,000 images, to see whether it had learned the features that distinguish mouse cancer cells from human ones, and radio-resistant cancer cells from radiosensitive ones,” the researcher further revealed.<\/p>\n

After creating a two-dimensional plot of the findings obtained by the system, the results for each cell type were clustered together, while being separated from the other cells. This has clearly shown that after training, the system was able to correctly identify cells based on microscopic images.<\/p>\n

The high accuracy with which the automated system can identify cells should be very useful in determining exactly which cells are present in the tumour of cancer patients. This would help in deciding a more appropriate mode of treatment.<\/p>\n
