Portable system for the prediction of anemia based on the ocular conjunctiva using Artificial Intelligence
share
Anemia is a major health burden worldwide. Examining the hemoglobin level of blood is an important way to achieve the diagnosis of anemia, but it requires blood drawing and a blood test. In this work we propose a non-invasive, fast, and cost-effective screening test for iron-deficiency anemia in Peruvian young children. Our initial results show promising evidence for detecting conjunctival pallor anemia and Artificial Intelligence techniques with photos taken with a popular smartphone.
