Cleveland Clinic developed a predictive model to identify patients at risk of developing gastric (stomach) cancer who may benefit from stomach cancer screening. The model is designed to identify who might need regular upper endoscopies to screen for stomach cancer. Although U.S. patients get routinely screened for other diseases, endoscopies—where a patient needs anesthesia—are more invasive.
