Melese, M. D., Simran Joshi, M. D., Saman Javid, Muhammad Jalal Shah Johns Hopkins Medicine, Baltimore, MD, Yale New Haven Health System, New Haven, CT, CMH Kharian Medical College  \nArtificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly transforming the landscape of cancer diagnostics, particularly in the field of gastrointestinal (GI) oncology. This project explores the clinical utility of AI—specifically machine learning (ML), deep learning (DL), and natural language processing (NLP)—in the early detection of GI cancers. Special emphasis is placed on Harvard Medical School’s CHIEF model, a histopathology-based AI framework trained on over 15 million unlabeled and 60 , 000 labeled images. Through a comprehensive review of current literature, we assess the integration of AI across endoscopy, imaging modalities (CT and MRI), and histological analysis. Findings reveal significant improvements in diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity, and early lesion detection compared to traditional approaches. The CHIEF model demonstrated over 94% accuracy and 96% sensitivity in detecting GI cancers, underscoring its potential for routine clinical implementation. This review highlights the transformative role of AI in shifting cancer care from late-stage intervention to early, personalized detection.  \nObjective  \nThe objective of this review is to explore the expanding role of artificial intelligence in the early detection of gastrointestinal cancers. This work highlights the advancements in machine learning, evaluates the performance and clinical utility of the CHIEF model, and discusses how these technologies can transform diagnostic workflows. Additionally, we aim to identify current challenges and propose directions for future research and clinical application.  \nFigure 1 : CHIEF outperformed state-of-the-art deep learning methods in detecting cancer cells using WSIs.a,b  \nFigure 2: CHIEF successfully predicted genetic mutations across cancer types using histopathology images.  \nMethods  \nThis review synthesizes a broad spectrum of current literature, encompassing research articles, clinical trials, and technical reports, to examine the integration of AI into various diagnostic modalities. We examine the application of AI in endoscopy, where machine learning algorithms detect subtle mucosal abnormalities indicative of early-stage cancers. We also explore AI in imaging techniques, such as computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), to enhance the detection of small, clinically significant lesions. Furthermore, we investigate AI in biomarker analysis, where machine learning models are employed to analyze complex datasets and identify predictive signatures of GI cancers. Particular emphasis is placed on the CHIEF (Colorectal Histological Images for Early Detection) model, a machine learning framework developed by Harvard, a representative example of advanced AI applications in this domain. We analyze the model’s architecture, performance metrics, and clinical utility, providing insights into the potential of AI-driven histological analysis.  \nConclusions  \nFindings from this review highlight the considerable gains in diagnostic performance achieved through AI integration. Machine learning identifies patterns in structured data to assist with diagnosis and risk stratification, while deep learning analyzes imaging data—such as endoscopy, CT, and MRI scans—to detect subtle lesions with high sensitivity and specificity. Natural language processing further enhances staging and modality selection by interpreting unstructured clinical text like pathology and radiology reports. In particular, Harvard’s CHIEF model integrates both local (cellular) and global (slide-wide) features to emulate expert pathologists, achieving over 94% diagnostic accuracy and 96% sensitivity in detecting cancers of the esop","cbCaibPkGdA9X1RS","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaibPkGdA9X1RS","pdf",1427395,1,"English","en",105,"# Objective\n# Methods\n# Conclusions\n# Future Directions\n# References","[{\"question\":\"What is the main objective of this review?\",\"answer\":\"To explore how artificial intelligence supports early detection of gastrointestinal cancers by evaluating machine learning advances, assessing Harvard’s CHIEF model, and outlining future challenges and research directions.\"},{\"question\":\"Which AI technologies and diagnostic modalities are assessed?\",\"answer\":\"The review covers machine learning, deep learning, and natural language processing across endoscopy, imaging modalities such as CT and MRI, and histological analysis for biomarker and lesion detection.\"},{\"question\":\"What performance results are reported for Harvard’s CHIEF model?\",\"answer\":\"The CHIEF model is reported to achieve over 94% accuracy and about 96% sensitivity for detecting GI cancers, supporting earlier and more precise detection compared with traditional approaches.\"}]","AI in Early Detection of Gastrointestinal Cancers -
