What is this study trying to find out about dermatologic diseases?

This study is evaluating how well the Belle.ai software can diagnose common skin diseases by comparing its results to those of expert dermatologists. It uses AI to analyze skin images and provide possible diagnoses. The goal is to see if the software can assist healthcare providers in improving diagnostic accuracy.

Who may be eligible for this dermatologic disease clinical trial?

Anyone 10 years or older visiting an Advocate Health dermatology clinic may be eligible. Participants must be able to provide informed consent, have access to a smartphone with internet, and be willing to follow study procedures. Patients with skin conditions on their genital area or those unable to comply due to health limitations are excluded. Please review eligibility criteria for more details.

Is there any cost to participate in this dermatologic disease clinical trial?

Study-related care, including the image capture and all trial visits, is provided at no cost. However, personal expenses such as travel to the clinic may vary and are not guaranteed to be covered.

What this Trial Is About

This research aims to evaluate the accuracy of the Belle.ai software in diagnosing common dermatologic diseases across different skin tones. The software uses deep learning technology to analyze clinical images of skin conditions and provides a differential diagnosis from a database of over 2,000 skin conditions based on more than 500,000 images. The study will determine how well the AI-generated diagnoses match those of dermatology experts. Participants who consent will have three images taken of their skin condition using the Belle.ai software. These images will be de-identified and uploaded into the system, where the software will generate a single list of possible diagnoses. Dermatology experts will then review the cases to compare their diagnoses with the AI results. The study will be conducted at dermatology clinics within the Advocate Health system. During the study, images will be captured and uploaded securely without any personal identifiers. The Dermatologic Review Committee will assess the concordance between the AIs primary diagnosis and expert opinions, aiming for greater than 80 agreement. Participants will not need to complete any additional forms, and their involvement primarily involves image capture during their clinic visit. The main outcome measured is the agreement between AI and physician diagnoses on the day of image capture.
