The Role of Artificial Intelligence in Adult Lung Cancer Detection
Lung cancer remains the leading cause of cancer deaths worldwide. Symptoms usually appear after the cancer has spread, making the disease difficult to treat. Current medical practices present several challenges as there is a shortage of physicians in the United States. Also, the main screening methods produce a high-false positivity rate. In this research-in-progress, current literature is examined with the goal to determine the effects of implementing Artificial Intelligence (AI) to pathological screenings and physician decision making. The literature is thematically analyzed and summarized to conclude the role AI plays in lung nodule detection. AI is determined to greatly improve physicians’ lung cancer detection and diagnosis ability. However, gaps in research and practice persist. We conclude with implications for research and practice.
