An Artificial Intelligence Tool to Improve Pancreatic Cancer Outcomes
By Sharon Rosen 
Article by Barbara Toman Only 9% of people with pancreatic cancer live for five years after diagnosis. “That is an abysmally low number, probably the worst in human cancers,” says Michael Wallace, M.D., a digestive disease specialist at the Mayo Clinic campus in Florida. “We want to get that rate substantially higher.” Artificial intelligence is […]

Medicine and Artificial Intelligence: Ethical Tensions
By Sharon Rosen
While artificial intelligence is already transforming health care by improving diagnostic accuracy and speeding the analysis of biological and genomics data to better understand disease, there are many ethical issues that should be considered. This was the message that Mayo Clinic bioethicist Richard Sharp, Ph.D., shared with attendees at the first Mayo Clinic Artificial Intelligence […]

Meet William Bobo, M.D. – taking the guesswork out of finding the right depression therapy
By Sharon Rosen
Depression can touch every aspect of a person’s life – affecting the way they think, feel and behave. It is also the leading medical condition for those who complete suicide. Getting the right therapy is crucial. But for patients suffering from the disorder, finding an effective treatment often involves trial and error. That’s because it […]

Bringing artificial intelligence to the patient’s bedside
Article by Barbara Toman A machine can never replace your doctor. But artificial intelligence—the type of technology behind smart speakers and ride-hailing apps—is now being used to improve medical care. Mayo Clinic is helping to lead that effort through a National Science Foundation (NSF) grant aimed at accelerating the application of artificial intelligence, also known […]

A clearer picture: new imaging technologies advance diagnosis, individualized care
By Sharon Rosen
When treating patients with cancer, one of the most challenging questions that physicians face is determining whether a tumor should be surgically removed immediately, or if it can be monitored over the course of time without performing surgery. Imaging tests – such as a CT scan or MRI – are essential tools that clinicians rely […]
