Trial Completed: Evaluating an Artificial Intelligence Tool to Help Primary Care Doctors Diagnose Skin Conditions. (NCT07428941)
WHY IT MATTERS
If this AI tool works well, patients with rare skin conditions like hidradenitis suppurativa could get faster, more accurate diagnoses from their regular doctor instead of waiting for specialist appointments.
Researchers completed a study testing whether an artificial intelligence tool can help regular doctors better diagnose skin conditions. The AI was designed to reduce mistakes and unnecessary specialist referrals by giving primary care doctors better information about skin problems like melanoma, psoriasis, and other conditions. With only 9 participants, this was a small early-stage study to see if the technology works.
NCT ID: NCT07428941 Status: COMPLETED Conditions: Skin Lesions, Melanocytic Nevi, Melanoma (Skin Cancer), Basal Cell Carcinoma of Skin, Urticaria, Pustular Psoriasis, Actinic Keratoses, Plaque Psoriasis, Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS) Enrollment: 9 Sponsor: AI Labs Group S.L Summary: This study aims to determine if an artificial intelligence (AI) medical device can help primary care doctors more accurately identify and manage various skin conditions. Skin issues are a frequent reason for doctor visits, but differences in expertise between general practitioners and specialists can sometimes lead to misdiagnoses or unnecessary referrals. The researchers hypothesized that the information provided by the AI device would increase the true diagnostic accuracy of primary care prac
