Pressure injuries (PIs) impose a substantial burden on patients, caregivers, and healthcare systems, affecting an estimated 3 million Americans and... Continue Reading →
Seen at CES: Nuralogix uses AI and a selfie to measure your heart rate, BP, body mass, skin age, stress level and more #C2SHiP @Techcrunch
Updates from this year's CES via Techcrunch A picture is worth 1,000 words, as the saying goes, and now a startup called Nuralogix is taking this idea to the next level: Soon, a selfie will be able give you 1,000 diagnostics about the state of your health.
A comprehensive review of methods based on deep learning for diabetes-related foot ulcers #AI #DeepLearning @ALPSlimb #ActAgainstAmputation #C2SHiP
Terrific work from Zhang and coworkers Background: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic disease with hyperglycemia. If not treated in time, it may lead to lower limb amputation. At the initial stage, the detection of diabetes-related foot ulcer (DFU) is very difficult. Deep learning has demonstrated state-of-the-art performance in various fields and has been used to...
