How the CancerSEEK algorithm works.

How the CancerSEEK algorithm works

16 cancer genes generates an Omega score that is combined with eight cancer-associated serum proteins to derive a probability for having any of eight different types of cancer. A machine learning algorithm then integrates these data with 31 additional serum proteins and patient gender to predict the tissue of origin.
