Discovery for Clinics and its expert-level AI models have been designed to accelerate and enhance clinical decision workflows, teleophthalmology management, referral decisions and patient management generating data efficiencies and enhancing decisions for clinics.
The vendor neutral and multi-modality platform harmonizes, aggregates, and connects large datasets on a single, cloud-based repository for data. The data is then automatically analyzed with RetinAI’s CE-marked and Research Use Only (RUO) AI algorithms for accelerated and AI-biomarker based treatment decisions. The AI models can be processed on DICOM and other formats for OCT and fundus imaging.
Both the Ophthalmology and Optometry versions of Discovery for Clinics have progression analytics to help track trends in outcomes and provide powerful visualization to patients on the progression of their disease. The platform connects healthcare stakeholders and patients with Discovery Passport, a feature that allows physicians to securely share with patients their data and remote questionnaires, to improve patient engagement and ultimately continue the quality of care for patients both in and outside the clinic. The platform in both versions supports referral networks and the participation in clinical trials via the collection of Real-World Data (RWD), enabling clinics to generate additional service opportunities.
