Abstract
This article discusses the implementation and impact of autonomous artificial intelligence (AI) systems for diabetic eye disease testing at the Johns Hopkins Medicine health system, highlighting improvements in screening rates, access to care, and health equity for underserved populations. The AI technology has been effective in both adult and pediatric populations and has reduced disparities and increased follow-up with eye care professionals. While considering the challenges and successes of this approach, this article also highlights the potential long-term impact of AI systems in improving visual health outcomes for people with diabetes in diverse health care settings.
期刊介绍：
The mission of Diabetes Spectrum: From Research to Practice is to assist health care professionals in the development of strategies to individualize treatment and diabetes self-management education for improved quality of life and diabetes control. These goals are achieved by presenting review as well as original, peer-reviewed articles on topics in clinical diabetes management, professional and patient education, nutrition, behavioral science and counseling, educational program development, and advocacy. In each issue, the FROM RESEARCH TO PRACTICE section explores, in depth, a diabetes care topic and provides practical application of current research findings.
