Artificial intelligence (AI) can be trained to recognize whether a tissue image contains a tumor.  However, exactly how it makes its decision has remained a mystery until now.  A team from the Research Center for Protein Diagnostics (PRODI) at Ruhr-Universität Bochum is developing a new approach that will render an AI’s decision transparent and thus trustworthy. The researchers describe the approach in their journal Medical Image Analysis.[1] 

For the study, experts from the Ruhr-Universität’s S
