Microsoft has partnered with digital pathology provider Paige to build an image-based artificial intelligence model for detecting cancer.
The AI-based model, which is trained on 1 billion images from half a million pathology slides, can identify common cancers and rare cancers, according to a Sept. 7 news release from Paige.
Paige is planning to use Microsoft's advanced supercomputing infrastructure to further train the model so it can be deployed to hospitals and laboratories.
