The AI-based biopsy cancer detection algorithm could be used to reduce the pathologists' workload in an AS cohort. The detected cancer amount correlated well with the cancer length measured by the pathologist and the algorithm performed well in finding even small areas of cancer. To our knowledge, this is the first report on an AI-based algorithm in digital pathology used to detect cancer in a cohort of patients on AS.
