Machine learning techniques could be used to diagnose parkinsonian syndromes and predict gait dysfunction in patients with Parkinson's disease with high accuracy, according to two new studies presented at the International Congress of Parkinson's Disease and Movement Disorders.
Scientists have developed an artificial intelligence tool, RETFound, that can diagnose and predict the risk of multiple health conditions, including ocular diseases, heart failure, and Parkinson's disease, based on retinal images, using self-supervised learning.
Researchers have used artificial intelligence to diagnose and predict the risk of developing various diseases, including Parkinson's disease and heart failure, by analyzing images of a person's retinas, achieving better results than previous AI models; meanwhile, a "Pandora's box" of new protein shapes has been discovered through the analysis of over 200 million predicted protein structures.
