China’s new blood test achieves 90% accuracy in early gastric cancer detection


A Chinese research team has developed a groundbreaking AI-powered blood test with 90% accuracy for detecting early-stage gastric cancer.

The research team employed AI algorithms that were in tune with the cfMeDIP (cell-free methylated DNA immunoprecipitation) technique. A study involving 150 gastric cancer patients and 100 healthy controls demonstrated the effectiveness of this method, achieving sensitivities of 88.38% and specificities of 94.23%. According to the researchers, this study is pretty important in getting to know tumor biology and could also help contribute to developing diagnostic and prognostic tools for gastric cancer.
