Pinpoint Data Science Limited

GPs in England currently refer 2.5 million patients a year for possible cancer diagnosis. Over 9 in every 10 of them do not have cancer but undergo multiple expensive, time consuming and stressful diagnostic tests, affecting patient lives and using funds that could be used elsewhere. The PinPoint test was designed to reduce the number of patients needing these tests, thereby reducing patient anxiety, pressure on doctors and increasing diagnostic capacity. Working with NHS doctors, PinPoint designed the test using machine learning which takes a range of blood measurements to produce a single number that tells doctors a patient’s chance of having cancer which they can then use to more effectively stratify, triage, prioritise and safety net 2WW patients.
