Artificial Intelligence in the Imaging of Gastric Cancer: Current Applications and Future Direction.

ABSTRACT: Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the most common cancers and one of the leading causes of cancer-related death worldwide. Precise diagnosis and evaluation of GC, especially using noninvasive methods, are fundamental to optimal therapeutic decision-making. Despite the recent rapid advancements in technology, pretreatment diagnostic accuracy varies between modalities, and correlations between imaging and histological features are far from perfect. Artificial intelligence (AI) techniques, particularly hand-crafted radiomics and deep learning, have offered hope in addressing these issues. AI has been used widely in GC research, because of its ability to convert medical images into minable data and to detect invisible textures. In this article, we systematically reviewed the methodological processes (data acquisition, lesion segmentation, feature extraction, feature selection, and model construction) involved in AI. We also summarized the current clinical applications of AI in GC research, which include characterization, differential diagnosis, treatment response monitoring, and prognosis prediction. Challenges and opportunities in AI-based GC research are highlighted for consideration in future studies.

Project description:ImportanceWith advancements in mobile technology and artificial intelligence (AI) methods, there has been a substantial surge in the availability of direct-to-consumer mobile applications (apps) claiming to aid in the assessment and management of diverse skin conditions. Despite widespread patient downloads, these apps exhibit limited evidence supporting their efficacy.ObjectiveTo identify and characterize current English-language AI dermatology mobile apps available for download, focusing on aspects such as purpose, supporting evidence, regulatory status, clinician input, data privacy measures, and use of image data.Evidence reviewIn this cross-sectional study, both Apple and Android mobile app stores were systematically searched for dermatology-related apps that use AI algorithms. Each app's purpose, target audience, evidence-based claims, algorithm details, data availability, clinician input during development, and data usage privacy policies were evaluated.FindingsA total of 909 apps were initially identified. Following the removal of 518 duplicates, 391 apps remained. Subsequent review excluded 350 apps due to nonmedical nature, non-English languages, absence of AI features, or unavailability, ultimately leaving 41 apps for detailed analysis. The findings revealed several concerning aspects of the current landscape of AI apps in dermatology. Notably, none of the apps were approved by the US Food and Drug Administration, and only 2 of the apps included disclaimers for the lack of regulatory approval. Overall, the study found that these apps lack supporting evidence, input from clinicians and/or dermatologists, and transparency in algorithm development, data usage, and user privacy.Conclusions and relevanceThis cross-sectional study determined that although AI dermatology mobile apps hold promise for improving access to care and patient outcomes, in their current state, they may pose harm due to potential risks, lack of consistent validation, and misleading user communication. Addressing challenges in efficacy, safety, and transparency through effective regulation, validation, and standardized evaluation criteria is essential to harness the benefits of these apps while minimizing risks.
