Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly applied in gastric cancer management, aiding in diagnosis, prediction, and surgical guidance. Future AI integration promises enhanced precision medicine approaches for this disease.
Area of Science:
- Oncology
- Medical Informatics
- Bioinformatics
Background:
- Gastric cancer remains a significant global health challenge.
- Advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) offer novel approaches to oncological research and clinical practice.
Purpose of the Study:
- To systematically review the current applications of artificial intelligence (AI) in gastric cancer.
- To identify limitations and future directions for AI in gastric cancer management.
Main Methods:
- A systematic review adhering to PRISMA guidelines was conducted.
- Searches were performed in major databases (PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, Cochrane Library) up to June 2020.
- Keywords included "artificial intelligence" and "gastric cancer".
Main Results:
- Sixty-four articles were analyzed, highlighting diverse AI applications in gastric cancer.
- AI is utilized in molecular analysis, early detection (H. pylori, gastritis, early cancer), invasion depth assessment, and pathology.
- AI facilitates predictive modeling for lymph node metastasis, treatment response, prognosis, and surgical training/guidance.
Conclusions:
- Artificial intelligence holds significant potential to enhance gastric cancer management.
- AI applications are poised to play a crucial role in the era of precision medicine for gastric cancer.
