Dear MEL Topic Readers,
Google AI tool can help patients identify skin conditions
When a problem or trouble occurs, many people search for information on the Internet trying to find the cause and solution. For example, when you have a reddish, raised patch, or irritated area, or a shiny pink, red, pearly white, or translucent bump on your skin, you may check on the Internet what that symptom might be to decide whether you can leave it, should get some medicine, or need to have it checked by a dermatologist. In order to do the search, you describe the symptom by typing or speaking to the browser, which will then show you relevant information. In fact, there are as many as 10 billion searches for skin, hair, and nail issues on its search engine each year. But it is a bit cumbersome to describe visual and sensational symptoms. So, Google came up with an AI tool that helps spot skin, hair, and nail conditions based on the visual images that are uploaded by the patient. The dermatology assist tool can recognize over 280 skin conditions based on a dataset of 65,000 images of diagnosed conditions and millions of images. The app doesn’t diagnose the symptoms but can help doctors provide more tailored treatments to patients. Indeed, skin conditions and symptoms vary by race, age, and person. Combined ingenuity of an expert and AI may identify skin problems and gives proper treatments more appropriately
