Enhancing Diagnostic Performance of Raman Spectroscopy for Bowel Cancer Blood Test Using Machine Learning Algorithms
Combining Raman spectroscopy and advanced machine learning algorithms can improve the diagnostic accuracy of bowel cancer blood tests, allowing for quicker detection and better survival rates. This multidisciplinary approach offers a non-invasive method for diagnosing the 4th most common cancer in the UK. Suggestions for model improvement include optimizing ML classifiers, metanalysis, and integrating patient medical records into the analysis.

WHY IS THIS IMPORTANT? - A multidisciplinary approach allowing for a quicker diagnosis of the 4th most common cancer in the UK - Current diagnostic procedures are invasive diagnostic procedures are invasive and the disease is difficult to diagnose - Utilizing ML techniques for the analysis of biofluids may allow for fast detection the 4th most common cancer in the UK difficult to diagnose fast detection and a better survival rate a better survival rate HOW CAN WE IMPROVE THE MODEL? - Several ideas: subjecting the data from particle detectors to a range of optimized ML classifiers, metanalysis, building the patient s medical record into the model etc. - Filter out the spectral abnormalities with a program created for human serum analysis - Creating an algorithm where classifiers consider both, medical data and pre-processing budget in a medical research
