Scientists in Hong Kong invent non-invasive diagnostic device for chronic kidney disease
Singapore, March 15 -- A team of scientists at the Department of Health Technology and Informatics at the Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU), in collaboration with The Fifth Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University, has invented Smart-CKD (S-CKD), a non-invasive computer-aided diagnostic tool. It integrates ultrasound data and selected clinical variables to provide clinical insights and assesses the risk of moderate-to-severe renal fibrosis progression in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients with a promising diagnostic efficiency of 80%.
This device offers a cost-effective solution for guiding patient management, thereby contributing notable clinical advantages. By leveraging machine learning, S-CKD integrates three pivotal c...
