Deep Learning and Colon Cancer Interpretation: Rise of the Machine.

The rapidly evolving development of artificial intelligence (AI) has spurred the development of numerous algorithms that augment information obtained from routine pathologic review of hematoxylin and eosin-stained slides. AI tools that predict prognosis and underlying molecular alterations have been the focus of much of the research to date. The results of these studies highlight the tremendous potential of AI to enhance our pathology reports by providing rapid predictions of key features that influence therapy and outcomes.
