Smart diabetic foot ulcer scoring system
2024
Overview
Current assessment methods for diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) lack objectivity and consistency, posing a significant risk to diabetes patients, including the potential for amputations, highlighting the urgent need for improved diagnostic tools and care standards in the field. To address this issue, the objective of this study was to develop and evaluate the Smart Diabetic Foot Ulcer Scoring System, ScoreDFUNet, which incorporates artificial intelligence (AI) and image analysis techniques, aiming to enhance the precision and consistency of diabetic foot ulcer assessment. ScoreDFUNet demonstrates precise categorization of DFU images into “ulcer,” “infection,” “normal,” and “gangrene” areas, achieving a noteworthy accuracy rate of 95.34% on the test set, with elevated levels of precision, recall, and F1 scores. Comparative evaluations with dermatologists affirm that our algorithm consistently surpasses the performance of junior and mid-level dermatologists, closely matching the assessments of senior dermatologists, and rigorous analyses including Bland–Altman plots and significance testing validate the robustness and reliability of our algorithm. This innovative AI system presents a valuable tool for healthcare professionals and can significantly improve the care standards in the field of diabetic foot ulcer assessment.
