The Role of Artificial Intelligence in Oncological Urology

The increasing scale of morbidity and the intensification of diagnostics (including the widespread use of mpMRI before biopsy and the increasing use of PET-CT with PSMA radiolabectors) create significant challenges for physicians. The large number of imaging studies and the need for their rapid and precise interpretation make the support of advanced tools indispensable.

Key Application Areas of AI

  • 1.

    Auto-segmentation and image analysis
    Tools such as Prostate.Carcinoma.AI enable fully automatic segmentation of the prostate and its zones element by element, and then detect suspicious changes. This dramatically reduces the time of the initial assessment, reduces the risk of errors and ensures consistency and objectivity of the results.

  • 2.

    Reduction of unnecessary biopsies
    Highly specific and sensitive AI algorithms increase negative predictive value, allowing clinicians to reduce the number of invasive procedures. Fewer unnecessary biopsies mean a lower risk of complications, less burden on the patient and savings for the medical facility.

  • 3.

    PI-RADS classification and support in PET/CT
    AI algorithms help classify suspicious foci based on PI-RADS 2.1, unifying MRI interpretation. Similar innovations are emerging in the area of PET/CT, allowing a precise assessment of the total tumor burden and a better qualification for targeted therapies.

  • 4.

    Personalization of treatment and therapy planning
    AI can predict response to treatment, which has been highlighted in the analytical work of various research teams. This allows doctors to select the most effective therapeutic path faster, avoiding costly, ineffective methods.

The Future and Role of DoctorMe

Artificial intelligence has become a real support for the doctor in the diagnosis and treatment of patients. Thanks to advanced algorithms, AI reduces the time of interpretation of studies, increases safety, improves the accuracy of detection of cancer lesions and personalization of therapy.

Scientific Evidence, Examples of Success

The following data from the literature and clinical studies confirm the effectiveness of AI tools, which provides a solid foundation for implementing these solutions in everyday medical practice.

Effectiveness of detection of clinically relevant changes

Research published in “Insights into Imaging” ⁵ confirms that AI algorithms can support the detection of clinically relevant prostate cancer with an accuracy close to that of experienced radiologists. This makes it easier to standardize diagnostics and improve the quality of care.

Objective analysis and reduction of assessment time

In clinical practice, up to 30% reduction in mpMRI analysis time was noted thanks to automated segmentation and report generation tools. Companies such as Mediaire (MDProstate) or Lucida Medical (Prostate Intelligence™) point to significant improvements in diagnostic performance, as confirmed by studies correlating AI analyses with histopathological outcomes.

Personalization of treatment and clinical perspective

Dr. Glenn T. Werneburg (Urology Times) ⁶ points out that machine learning and AI are playing a growing role in personalizing care, for example in the selection of therapies for prostate cancer patients. By integrating imaging, clinical and pathomorphological data, AI helps to make therapeutic decisions that take into account the individual characteristics of the patient.

Regulations and certifications confirming the quality

Many AI tools dedicated to oncourology are certified according to European MDR regulations (e.g. FUSE-AI prostate.carcinoma.ai, Quibim QP-prostate, Mediaire mdprostate) as well as FDA (e.g. Paige Prostate). These certifications confirm safety and effectiveness, providing doctors and medical facilities with trusted support.
