Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates an artificial intelligence (AI) platform designed to diagnose acute appendicitis, addressing the limitations of current scoring systems and CT scans, which have potential risks and resource constraints.
  • The AI platform demonstrated impressive diagnostic capabilities, with a sensitivity of 92.2% and specificity of 97.2%, outperforming traditional CT scans in several metrics, including the area under the receiver curve and precision.
  • The findings suggest that the AI tool can significantly enhance clinical decision-making, offering a valuable diagnostic alternative that minimizes unnecessary surgeries while maintaining accuracy.

NDD included autism/autism spectrum disorder, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, intellectual disability, cerebral palsy, and epilepsy.
