- Digital transformation initiatives are prioritizing expansions in screening programs, electronic health records, and better data connectivity in healthcare.
- AI models developed for lung cancer diagnosis, using computed tomography and pathology data, show promising results and are ready for wider use, supported by national scientific approval.
- Early adoption of AI is enhancing diagnostic accuracy, helping reduce missed lesions and improving preventive care through interconnected health data systems.
