Enhancing Lung and Breast Cancer Screening with Advanced AI and Image Processing Techniques

This research investigates the application of CNNs for diagnostics improvements in lung and breast cancers based on AI image classification approaches. Using the datasets with 15,000 images describing lung cancer and 10,000 images describing cases of breast cancer, the models showed high performance: 90% for lung cancer and 99% for breast cancer classification. The descriptive analysis pointed out different features in imaging, such as dense tissue structure and irregular cell patterns; the models successfully identified these. The findings underlined the vital role that AI could play in assisting radiologists by delivering preliminary analysis, triaging high-risk cases, and leading to early cancer detection. Essential challenges were highlighted: ethical considerations concerning patients' privacy and AI algorithms' transparency. The limitation of the dataset diversity resulted in the conclusion that only broader data can ensure good generalization in various clinical settings. They recommended integrating the AI tool with clinical workflow and also called for training radiologists for effectiveness. Future research directions include real-time imaging and patient data integration for comprehensive diagnostic support and multi-modal approaches that combine imaging with genomics for more precise predictions. This leads to a more personalized cancer diagnosis and treatment plan, thus ultimately improving the results of the patients. This research, therefore, underlines the transformative capabilities of AI and image processing in modernizing cancer screening and diagnostics toward more accurate and efficient healthcare practices.
