New AI tool can predict where glioblastoma is most likely to return after initial surgery

THE AI ANGLE
Predicting glioblastoma recurrence locations from rapid tissue imagesResearchers developed an AI tool that analyzes rapid microscopic tissue images to predict where glioblastoma will recur. The model identifies high-risk regions within ten millimeters of the cavity before new tumors show on MRI scans. This gives surgical teams specific targets for earlier tissue resection, focal radiation, or direct drug delivery.
THE TEACHING ANGLE
Clinicians must weigh the risks of extra tissue resection or focal radiation against relying on algorithmic predictions before tumors appear on MRI.Read the original at medicalxpress.com Generate teaching or study materials
