Artificial Intelligence System for Assessing Image Quality of Slit-Lamp Images and Its Effects on Diagnosis
An observational study of Anterior Segment Disorders and Artificial Intelligence, run by Sun Yat-sen University at 1 site in China.
Trial summary
Slit-lamp images are widely used in ophthalmology for the detection of cataract, keratopathy and other anterior segment disorders. In real-world practice, the quality of slit-lamp images can be unacceptable, which can undermine diagnostic accuracy and efficiency. Read more about this study

About this study
Official title: Artificial Intelligence System for Assessing Image Quality of Slit-Lamp Images and Its Effects on Diagnosis: A Clinical Trial
Slit-lamp images are widely used in ophthalmology for the detection of cataract, keratopathy and other anterior segment disorders. In real-world practice, the quality of slit-lamp images can be unacceptable, which can undermine diagnostic accuracy and efficiency. Here, the researchers established and validated an artificial intelligence system to achieve automatic quality assessment of slit-lamp images upon capture. This system can also provide guidance to photographers according to the reasons for low quality.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Taking slit-lamp imagesDevice
The participant only needs to take several slit-lamp images as usual.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Slit-lamp image quality assessment | Device: an artificial intelligence system for quality assessment of slit-lamp images. These patients are enrolled in primary healthcare units or the AI clinic at Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center Receives: Device: Taking slit-lamp images |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Performance of artificial intelligence system for distinguish between good image quality and poor image quality
Area under the receiver operating characteristic curves, sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values,accuracy
Measured: 3 months
Secondary outcomes (1)
The comparison of the performance for previous artificial intelligence diagnostic system with slit-lamp images of different image quality
Cohen's kappa coefficient, P value and other related statistic results
Measured: 3 months

Clinical summary
The research question as the sponsor registered it. This describes what the study plans to test, not what it found.
Slit-lamp images are widely used in ophthalmology for the detection of cataract, keratopathy and other anterior segment disorders. In real-world practice, the quality of slit-lamp images can be unacceptable, which can undermine diagnostic accuracy and efficiency. Here, the researchers established and validated an artificial intelligence system to achieve automatic quality assessment of slit-lamp images upon capture.

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Performance of artificial intelligence system for distinguish between good image quality and poor image quality (time frame: 3 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 19 Mar 2020.
