Excerpt

Dr. Gina Tourassi and Dr. Paul FearnImage Modified

Pathology reports are a primary source of information for cancer registries, which process high volumes of free-text reports annually. Information extraction and coding is a manual, labor-intensive process. In this talk we will present an update on the NCI-DOE pilot for cancer surveillance, discussing deep learning technology developed and highlighting both theoretical and practical perspectives that are relevant to natural language processing of clinical reports. Using different deep learning architectures, we will present benchmark studies for various information extraction tasks and discuss their importance in supporting a comprehensive and scalable national cancer surveillance program.
