Article Synopsis
- Cervical cancer screening in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) faces challenges due to a lack of specialists and costly diagnostic tools, prompting researchers to create low-cost portable devices and automate image analysis for better decision-making.
- A systematic review was conducted to evaluate the range of automated technology systems used for cervical cancer screening, resulting in 17 studies using mobile device images and 56 studies using conventional devices.
- The findings show that computer-aided diagnostics (CAD) outperform manual analysis in accuracy, but the clinical validation of these novel devices is still insufficient in LMICs where they are most needed.
