Using artificial intelligence to diagnose diabetic retinopathy before it causes blindness

Artificial intelligence (AI) is now being used to autonomously diagnose a diabetes-related eye disorder in patients at University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics in Iowa City. University of Iowa Health Care is the first U.S. medical center to start using IDx-DR - a technology that uses artificial intelligence (AI) to diagnose diabetic retinopathy, a condition in which poorly controlled blood sugar leads to damaged blood vessels in the back of the eye. IDx-DR is the first device authorized by the FDA for marketing that provides a screening decision without the need for a clinician to also interpret the image or results.
