Description
Usha Rani Poli and colleagues develop and validate an artificial intelligence tool for cervical cancer screening in South India. Their 2024 pilot study supports a screen-and-treat programme using visual inspection with acetic acid.
Visual inspection is subjective and can lead to overtreatment when nurses treat all positive cases immediately. The tool was trained with deep learning on a bank of cervical images. It aims to identify screen-positive areas and judge eligibility for ablative treatment. The study also tested how well the tool guided nurses deciding on treatment. Readers get both the development process and early clinical validation in a resource-limited screening setting.
