Scientists developed a way of using artificial intelligence to check for skin cancer with the AI tool, which was trained on data from 53,601 skin lesions from 25,105 patients, outperforming ...

Devices that use artificial intelligence to evaluate skin lesions are beginning to emerge, but AI has some hurdles to overcome before it's widely accepted in dermatology.

By combining those tools with machine learning, their goal was to see if the combination would work as a noninvasive and more objective in vivo diagnostic tool.

The researchers suggest that these advanced, pretrained machine learning models could expand the reach of machine learning-based cancer diagnosis to resource-limited settings.
