the new canPredict-ED algorithms will supersede the widely used qcancer.org tools to help drive improvements in early diagnosis of cancer - an area where the UK has massive scope for improvement.

this graph from our latest paper in Nature Comms shows how risk of cancer varies with levels of commonly used liver function tests. Its particularly valuable addition to the cancer prediction algorithms given the huge number of these blood tests every year

The #research used the anonymised electronic health records of 7.4 million adults in England plus the results of 7 routine blood tests to create the new algorithms which could revolutionise how cancer is detected in primary care, and make it easier for patients to get treatment at earlier stages.

The NHS currently uses prediction #algorithms, such as the QCancer scores, to combine relevant information from patient data and identify individuals deemed at high risk of having a currently undiagnosed cancer, enabling GPs and specialists to call them in for further testing.
