        "summary": "AI technology is being used to assist doctors in the early detection of lung cancer by identifying small nodules in the lungs that may be cancerous. This technology can help to improve the efficiency of lung cancer screening and diagnosis, especially in identifying potentially malignant nodules at an early stage.",
        "content": "<p>Jakarta (ANTARA) - The use of artificial intelligence (AI) technology\nis considered to be able to help doctors detect lung cancer early by\nmarking nodules or small lumps in the lungs that have the potential to\ndevelop into malignancy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn chest X-ray examinations, AI-based systems can help mark areas\nsuspected of being lung nodules that require further evaluation through\nCT scans for more detailed characterization,\u201d said Radiologist\nSpecialist, dr. Dewi Tantra Hardiyanto, Sp.Rad, at the World Cancer Day\nMedia Conference entitled \u2018Transformation of Cancer Screening and\nDiagnosis with AI\u2019 in Jakarta, Wednesday.<\/p>\n<p>This detection, according to Dewi, allows patients to be directed\nmore quickly and accurately for further examination.<\/p>\n<p>In the collaboration event between AstraZeneca Indonesia and Siloam\nInternational Hospitals, she said that in chest X-ray examinations,\nAI-based systems can help mark areas suspected of being lung nodules for\nfurther evaluation using CT scans.<\/p>\n<p>Dewi also explained that not all lung nodules are cancerous. Some\nnodules are benign and do not require aggressive action. Doctors will\nassess the shape, size, and patient\u2019s risk factors to determine the\nlevel of suspicion, with clinical decisions remaining in the hands of\nmedical personnel.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Thoracic Oncology Subspecialist, dr. Sita Laksmi Andarini,\nPh.D., Sp.P(K), said that screening with the help of AI can help the\nprocess of detecting lung cancer more efficiently, especially in\nidentifying nodules that have the potential to be malignant at an early\nstage.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn this case, the process of screening for lung diseases, especially\nlung cancer, with the help of AI technology can help doctors to carry\nout detection more efficiently,\u201d said the doctor who is a member of the\nIndonesian Oncology Association of DKI Jakarta.<\/p>\n<p>Based on GLOBOCAN 2020 data, lung cancer ranks third as the type of\ncancer with the largest number of new cases in Indonesia. Many cases are\ndiagnosed at an advanced stage because the initial symptoms are often\nnot specific or resemble common respiratory disorders.<\/p>",
