Abstract
This study showcases a novel AI-driven approach to accurately differentiate between stage one and stage two gastric carcinoma based on pathology slide analysis. Gastric carcinoma, a significant contributor to cancer-related mortality globally, necessitates precise staging for optimal treatment planning and patient management. Leveraging a comprehensive dataset of 3540 high-resolution pathology images sourced from Kaggle.com, comprising an equal distribution of stage one and stage two tumors, the developed AI model demonstrates remarkable performance in tumor staging. Through the application of state-of-the-art deep learning techniques on Google’s Collaboration platform, the model achieves outstanding accuracy and precision rates of 100%, accompanied by notable sensitivity (97.09%), specificity (100%), and F1-score (98.31%). Additionally, the model exhibits an impressive area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of 0.999, indicating superior discriminatory power and robustness. By providing clinicians with an efficient and reliable tool for gastric carcinoma staging, this AI-driven approach has the potential to significantly enhance diagnostic accuracy, inform treatment decisions, and ultimately improve patient outcomes in the management of gastric carcinoma. This research contributes to the ongoing advancement of cancer diagnosis and underscores the transformative potential of artificial intelligence in clinical practice.Copyright © 2024, Reddy et al.
