Using AI to predict lung cancer risk

In recent years, lung cancer rates have been rising in nonsmokers, a troubling trend for the world's #1 deadliest cancer. Sybil is a deep learning model built by MIT Jameel Clinic and Mass General Brigham researchers that accurately predicts lung cancer risk up to 6 years in advance by analyzing a patient's LDCT scan. How exactly does this state-of-the-art model work and what was the key insight that brought it to life? Watch this 7-minute video featuring the researchers behind the model to learn more about how Sybil is transforming the future of lung cancer screening.
Jameel Clinic AI faculty lead Regina Barzilay explains how Sybil predicts lung cancer risk.
