El proyecto MultiplexAI busca transformar el diagnóstico de enfermedades parasitarias con inteligencia artificial
The multiplexai project, financed by the EDCP3 program of the European Union, It will transform conventional microscopes into intelligent tools that allow expert Directive level diagnosis to the primary care pointOpen new possible for faster and more precise patient management. Coordinated by Isglobal, the project has the technology of the Spanish company SpotlabSpecialized in AI for medical diagnosis and biopharmaceutical research, and gathers partners of Nigeria, Mozambique, Ivory Coast, Ethiopia, Italy and Spain.
AI to face global health challenges
The Parasitic coolingLike malaria and some of the tropical unattended, they continue to affect more than one billion people, especially in low and medium income countries. He diagnosis depend largely on the Microscopy ManualA laborious and variable variable, which requires specialized personnel.
Multiplexai A system capable of offering will Fast, precise and affordable diagnoses at the health care point. It works as «Instagram filter»: analyze images of microscopy of blood samples to identify disease patterns. An AI model executed on a mobile phone, connected to a microscope with a 3D adapter, will offer real -time expert results.
«We will use intelligence to convert thousands of conventional microscopes into a network of intelligent apostitive that provide trial diagnosis and medical knowledge for all people, anywhere,» Sornala Miguel Luengo-OrozSpotlab CEO. «From Spain we develop the toe at a global level to contribute a resolution a problem of the import.»
The system, designed to function No connection and connect with a telemedicine platform when there is Internet access, it will be validated in multicentric clinical studies in Álica and Europe.
«Many times, the places that most need fiagles diagnos are the ones who have less access,» he emphasizes Gloria given Chechet, Associated professor at the Ahmadu Bello University (Nigeria). «Multiplexai responds to a challenge of the expert analysis of the Primary Care point.»
Towards a more accessible health
In addition to technical performance, the project will guarantee the usability, level of action and economic vapor of the multiplexai system. Health impact models will be developed to estimate your Potential in the reduction of diagnostic errors and the strengthening of health systems.
«More than one billion people, many of them girls and boys, remain at risk of contracting parasitic diseases,» he says Quique BassatGeneral Director of Isglobal. «Multiplexai demonstrates how innovation deep technology can Democratize the diagnosis of expert level and transform health systems worldwide«
The consortium guarantees a Responsible and equitableAligned with the ethical principles of the WHO, the regulations of health products and the AI EU act, in order to prioritize safety, transparency and sustainability. A global access plan will guide the responsible deployment and guarantee access equitive in unattended regions.
