Mayo Clinic has developed an AI model named REDMOD that can detect pancreatic cancer on routine CT scans up to three years earlier than current methods. The model analyzes hundreds of imaging features to identify subtle biological changes, successfully flagging 73% of prediagnostic cancers at a median of 16 months before diagnosis. This advancement is particularly significant given pancreatic cancer's high mortality rate and late-stage diagnosis, with a prospective trial, AI-PACED, now underway to evaluate its clinical integration.
