Trial summary

Computer vision using deep learning architecture is broadly used in auto-recognition. In the research, the deep learning model which is trained by categorized single-eye images is applied to achieve the good performance of the model in blepharoptosis auto-diagnosis. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Artificial Intelligence-Assisted Facial, Periocular, and Orbital Analysis and Surgical Planning

Computer vision using deep learning architecture is broadly used in auto-recognition. In the research, the deep learning model which is trained by categorized single-eye images is applied to achieve the good performance of the model in blepharoptosis auto-diagnosis.

Read the detailed description

This auto-diagnosis system of blepharoptosis using machine learning architecture will assist in telemedicine, such as early screening of childhood ptosis for prompt referral and treatment. People could use this software via mobile devices to get a primitive diagnosis before they reach the physicians. Furthermore, in primary health care, where there is no oculoplastic surgeon, the software could assist primary care physicians or general ophthalmologists, in identifying the need for a referral.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The model performance is evaluated by accuracy

    An Artificial Intelligence Approach

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year

  2. AUC (Area Under the Curve)

    An Artificial Intelligence Approach

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year

  3. ROC (Receiver Operating Characteristics) curve.

    An Artificial Intelligence Approach

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year

  4. An Artificial Intelligence Approach to Identifying Facial, Periocular, and Orbital Diseases

    The model interpretability is accessed by Grad-CAM (Class Activation Maps).

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery and Periocular Diseases, run by National Taiwan University Hospital at 1 site in Taiwan.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Feb 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Taiwan. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

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?

The model performance is evaluated by accuracy (time frame: Through study completion, an average of 1 year). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. 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 18 Feb 2021.
