Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) have emerged as powerful tools in cancer research, revolutionizing the way we detect, diagnose, and treat tumours. This article explores the pivotal role of AI and ML in cancer research, with a particular focus on their contributions to tumour detection. By analysing large datasets, identifying patterns, and making accurate predictions, AI and ML have the potential to significantly enhance early detection, improve treatment outcomes, and personalize cancer therapies.
