Utilizing an Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning Model to Predict Colorectal Cancer Risk in American Samoa: A Pilot Study

This study demonstrates the potential of AI/ML models for predicting CRC risk in resource-limited and culturally diverse populations like American Samoa. However, significant barriers, including cultural, financial, and logistical factors, limit patient follow-up and the broader implementation of these technologies. Future research should focus on addressing these barriers, enhancing community engagement, and integrating culturally appropriate interventions to improve CRC screening and outcomes in underserved populations.
