Recent Highlights
Indian Institute of Science (IISc) has received the Best Education Institute Exhibit of the Year at the India Mobile Congress 2025 for its AI-based oral cancer screening tool Aarogya Aarohan. Developed by IISc’s AI Centre of Excellence, TANUH (Translational Artificial Intelligence for Networked Universal Health Care), in collaboration with ARTPARK and Triveous, Aarogya Aarohan is a mobile phone–based, AI-powered, point-of-care tool that supports early detection of oral potentially malignant disorders and oral cancers.
Designed to be mobile-first, offline-first, and edge-deployed, the tool enables frontline health workers to capture and analyze oral images in real time, even in low-resource settings. It provides instant lesion classification to support timely referral and treatment, addressing a critical gap in early oral cancer detection in India.
