00:00At Duma Diagnostics, we personalize cancer treatment by utilizing the power of AI.
00:18And while there has been great improvements in cancer care over the last years,
00:25there's still a lot of patients that receive toxic treatment with no benefits.
00:29What we aim to do is to identify the patients that truly benefit from the treatment
00:34and the patients that have a low risk and can safely forego this toxic treatment.
00:48We don't really know what the AI is looking for,
00:52but we have then afterwards correlated with pathologist evaluation.
00:56And seeing that it makes sense, it picks up many of the features that pathologists also look at,
01:01but it of course also combine this and look at things that pathologists may not know yet.
01:07Our AI solution is more accurate in predicting the outcome of the patient than the pathologists are themselves.
01:18So we can supplement the pathologist evaluation and therefore improve the prediction of outcome,
01:25and therefore personalize the treatment of the patients.
01:28.
