Imagine a world where cancer surgeries become more precise, saving patients from the anguish of multiple operations. #HKUST Prof. Terence WONG Tsz-Wai, an assistant professor of the Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering, and his dedicated team are turning this wish into a reality with their breakthrough #CHAMP microscope.

Leveraging the power of #AI, CHAMP uses UV light excitation and a deep learning algorithm to ensure the complete removal of lung cancer cells. CHAMP eliminates the need for additional surgeries by offering real-time cancer cell detection in just 3 minutes with over 90% accuracy.

With ongoing 1000-patient clinical trials, CHAMP is set to transform the landscape of cancer care from 2024 onwards. Through their start-up, PhoMedics, supported by HKUST's TSSSU, the team is eager to translate this cutting-edge research into practical applications globally and broadly in the future.
