New AI tool predicts cancer spread with surprising accuracy

Why do some tumors spread while others remain localized? Scientists still do not fully understand what controls a cancer cell's ability to metastasize, but answering this question is essential for improving patient care. Researchers at the University of Geneva (UNIGE) studied cells from colon cancer and identified key factors that influence whether a tumor is likely to spread. They also uncovered specific gene expression patterns that can be used to estimate that risk.
