A team of researchers from the University of British Columbia and BC Cancer have developed an artificial intelligence (AI) model that can accurately predict cancer patient survival with more readily available data than previous tools. The model uses natural language processing (NLP) to analyze oncologist notes following a patient’s initial consultation visit. The findings were published in JAMA Network Open, and the model was shown to predict six-month, 36-month and 60-month survival with greater than 80 per cent accuracy.
