Yan Leyfman: New breakthrough in AI + Pathology
Yan Leyfman, Co-Founder and Executive Director at MedNews Week, shared on LinkedIn about a recent paper by Gabriele Campanella et al. published in Nature:
“New breakthrough in AI + Pathology:
A computational biomarker trained on >8,000 digital H&E slides now detects EGFR mutations in lung adenocarcinoma with clinical-grade accuracy (AUC up to 0.89)!
- Preserves tissue
- Reduces need for rapid molecular tests by 43%
- Generalizes across centers + metastatic sites
This prospective, real-world study shows how AI can enhance precision oncology while conserving critical biopsy samples.
Powered by fine-tuned foundation models
Clinical utility proven in silent trial.”
Title: Real-world deployment of a fine-tuned pathology foundation model for lung cancer biomarker detection
