A UK NHS AI and robotics program is speeding up lung cancer detection and treatment through faster, precise biopsies.
A UK NHS pilot using AI and robotics is speeding up lung cancer detection by identifying small lung nodules and performing precise robotic biopsies in a single procedure.
The program, led by Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust, has completed over 300 robotic biopsies, with 215 patients starting cancer treatment.
It aims to replace weeks of invasive testing and supports the national lung cancer screening program, which has screened over 1.5 million people since 2019 and plans to screen 1.4 million more next year.
Officials project the expanded effort could detect up to 50,000 cancers by 2035, many at earlier, more treatable stages.
Patients like David Lindsay, diagnosed with stage one cancer after a routine scan, have praised the fast, painless process.
NHS leaders call the technology a “glimpse of the future” of cancer detection.
