The Li Ka Shing Faculty of Medicine of the University of Hong Kong has created the world's first artificial intelligence model dedicated to diagnosing and classifying thyroid cancer.
The University of Hong Kong announced that the model, developed in collaboration with the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, can identify the stage of cancer and its risk category with an accuracy of greater than 90 percent.
"This innovative artificial intelligence model promises to significantly reduce the pre-consultation preparation time of frontline clinicians by nearly 50 percent," the university said.
Thyroid cancer is among the most common cancers in Hong Kong, but also worldwide.
Professor Joseph T. Wu, managing director of the Li Ka Shing School of Medicine at the University of Hong Kong, said their model achieves “more than 90 percent accuracy in AJCC (American Joint Committee on Cancer) cancer stage classification and ATA (American Thyroid Association) risk category.”
According to the University of Hong Kong, research teams created an artificial intelligence assistant that analyzes clinical documents using language models such as ChatGPT and DeepSeek, which are designed to understand and process human language, as well as improve the accuracy and efficiency of thyroid cancer staging and risk classification.
