Core Tip

Core Tip: Artificial intelligence (AI) demonstrates transformative potential across gastrointestinal and hepatic disorders. It enhances early detection of subtle lesions (e.g., Barrett's esophagus) by analyzing diverse clinical data, optimizes treatment decisions (e.g., therapy response in liver cancer) via integrated clinical data assessment (including multimodal integration where applicable), and refines prognostic prediction (e.g., recurrence risk in liver cancer). This translational AI enables intelligent clinical decision-making for diagnosis, personalized treatment, and prognosis assessment throughout the patient journey.
