LYME RELATED INFECTION INDICATOR
Methods for identifying indications for testing for Lyme related infection are described. A subject, presenting a sudden onset of at least one visual symptom known to be associated with Lyme related infection, may be screened for peri-papillary ischemia and, if peri-papillary ischemia is present, the subject may be recommended to undergo further testing for Lyme related infection.

Electronic device, control method for the electronic device, and storage medium
An electronic device acquires pulse wave information indicating a pulse wave of a first portion of a body and pulse wave information indicating a pulse wave of a second portion of the body, based on video information of the body in each of a first video and a second video obtained by imaging the body. The device further acquires, based on a relationship between the pulse wave information of the first portion and the pulse wave information of the second portion acquired from the first video, and a relationship between the pulse wave information of the first portion and the pulse wave information of the second portion acquired from the second video, a measurement result indicating a degree of change in blood flow from when imaging the first video to when imaging the second video.
DETECTING ISCHEMIC STROKE MIMIC USING DEEP LEARNING-BASED ANALYSIS OF MEDICAL IMAGES
An ischemic stroke mimic is detected, or otherwise predicted, based on medical images acquired from a subject. Medical image data, which include medical images acquired from a head of the subject, are accessed with a computer system. A machine learning model (e.g., one or more deep convolutional neural networks) is trained on training data to estimate a probability of an acute intracranial abnormality being depicted in a medical image. Intracranial abnormality prediction data are generated by inputting the medical image data to the machine learning model. The intracranial abnormality prediction data include an intracranial abnormality probability score for each of the medical images in the medical image data. An ischemic stroke mimic classification for the medical image data is generated based on the intracranial abnormality prediction data, and may be displayed to a user with the computer system.
AUTOMATED AND ASSISTED IDENTIFICATION OF STROKE USING FEATURE-BASED BRAIN IMAGING
Provided herein are systems and methods for automated identification of volumes of interest in volumetric brain images using artificial intelligence (AI) enhanced imaging to diagnose and treat acute stroke.
