智东西China AI News(@Chinazhidx):🚨Alibaba’s DAMO Academy has developed the Esophageal AI-Guided malignant Lesion Evaluation (EAGLE). It’s an AI model that can detect precancerous lesions and esophageal cancer from noncontrast chest CT, a task historically considered impossible. The model was validated across 80,612 patients in 12 centers across 3 countries. • 90.0% sensitivity for esophageal cancer • 52.5% sensitivity for precancerous lesions • 98.5% specificity It also maintained comparable performance on low-dose CT, potentially enabling esophageal cancer screening through existing lung-cancer screening programs.
