Abstract

Traditional Chinese medicine has accumulated a wealth of experiences in individualized cancer prevention and serves as a complement to Western medicine. We propose an artificial intelligence-based integration of traditional and Western medicine as a new paradigm for cancer prevention, encompassing cancer risk screening and preventive intervention, which will provide new solutions for cancer prevention and offer fresh perspectives for traditional medicine research worldwide.
