85% of people with pancreatic cancer are diagnosed too late to receive life-saving treatment. Early diagnosis is crucial, yet up to 40% of CT scans with a tumor small enough to surgically remove, 2cm or less, are not detected when a patient’s scans are evaluated. However, there is hope on the horizon. Scientists are now training AI to improve early detection rates that may indicate the presence of a tumor often missed by the human eye. This breakthrough has the potential to save up to 30,000 lives annually.

Join Trevor Noah as he talks with Dr. Elliot K. Fishman, Professor of Radiology and Radiological Science at Johns Hopkins Medicine, to discover how AI is revolutionizing the fight against one of the deadliest cancers known to humankind.
