The double portion of AI in diagnostics

Dear Sir or Madam,

Today's newsletter brings you two AI applications for diagnostics!

TU Munich and Helmholtz Munich are jointly developing an imaging method that goes under the skin: Raster-Scan Optoacoustic Mesoscopy (RSOM) is designed to detect changes in microvessels in people with diabetes, and it does so non-invasively. You can read about how the method works and why it can be very useful in the interview "Diabetes: AI skin scanner detects disease progression".

Meanwhile, Fraunhofer Austria Research GmbH in Vienna is working on relieving laboratories of a specific problem: how can urinary tract infections be diagnosed with less manual work? Fraunhofer's answer to this question is an AI-based decision tree. Find out what makes it special in the interview "Smart infection diagnostics: UTI detection with AI".

Enjoy reading!

Progressive diabetes is accompanied by gradual changes that occur at the micro scale of nerves and blood vessels. This leads to damage that goes unnoticed for a long time. A team from TU Munich applied the optoacoustic imaging method Raster-Scan Optoacoustic Mesoscopy (RSOM) together with AI to measure the severity of diabetes by assessing microvascular changes in the skin.

Traditional detection for Urinary tract infections (UTIs), involving manual microscope examination of urine samples, is slow and time consuming. To improve efficiency, urine screening machines analyze various parameters like bacteria and white blood cells. However, interpreting this data is complex.
