What this trial studies
This project aims to develop an Artificial Intelligence assistant decision-making system (AIADMS) to enhance the management of atopic dermatitis (AD) using a Treat to Target (T2T) strategy. The study will utilize a dataset of over 10,000 clinical images of AD to train the AI system for automatic detection and evaluation of skin lesions. Dermatologists will label clinical signs and severity of the lesions, which will be used to improve patient adherence to treatment and optimize clinical outcomes. Participants will be recruited from the West China Hospital of Sichuan University, where informed consent will be obtained prior to involvement.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this AI app could significantly improve disease management and quality of life for patients with atopic dermatitis.
How similar studies have gone: While the use of AI in dermatology is gaining traction, this specific application of AI for atopic dermatitis management is relatively novel and has not been extensively tested in prior studies.
