ENP86: Machine Learning and Steatotic Liver Disease

July 10, 2024·19 min·2 clips
A Harvard team has built an AI model using just four blood and clinical markers to diagnose liver disease with over 95% accuracy.
This episode explores how artificial intelligence and machine learning are being used to develop a simple blood test for diagnosing metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), a condition affecting 30% of the population. Dr. Christos Mansouros explains the limitations of current diagnostic methods like biopsies and ultrasounds, and details his team's work creating an AI model that uses just four clinical and laboratory markers to achieve over 95% accuracy.
