Artificial intelligence can improve patients' experience in decentralized clinical trials - Nature Medicine

Computer vision is a domain of AI that enables the automatic assessment of images and videos. Many mobile banking apps use computer vision to coach customers to take photos of their checks for electronic deposits. If you hold the camera too far from the check or the lighting is too dark, the app will provide real-time advice about the required adjustments. The same could be done for user-submitted photos and videos in clinical trials; this approach has already been tested in telemedicine8. If a patient's entire body needs to be visible in the video, this could be confirmed automatically while the video is being captured in the trial's mobile application, allowing for immediate adjustments.
