AI-powered Solution for Chronic Kidney Disease Risk Assessment
Dr. Noon CKD is a retina-based AI solution that predicts the future risk of developing chronic kidney disease. Dr. Noon CKD analyzes the blood vessels in the retina with a simple retinal scan without the need for blood or urine tests and shows the risk of developing chronic kidney disease.
How Dr. Noon CKD works:
- STEP 1: Eye Scan
Take one picture of each eye to capture the retina.
- STEP 2: Image Upload
The retinal images are uploaded to the healthcare institution’s server or cloud platform.
- STEP 3: AI Analysis
Artificial intelligence automatically analyzes the images to assess the patient’s risk of chronic kidney disease.
- STEP 4: Result Review
The risk of chronic kidney disease is determined through an automatically generated report.
Comparison with Traditional Methods
A comparison with traditional methods highlights Dr. Noon CKD's superior performance over conventional tests in assessing cardiovascular risk.
- Blood Test (eGFR)
- Urine Test (ACR)
Key Benefits
- High Accuracy: Provides higher predictive accuracy for chronic kidney disease risk than estimated GFR (eGFR), the current standard kidney function test.
- Safe & Non-Invasive: Requires no needle injection or radiation exposure, making it comfortable for patients.
- Fast Test Results: Results are delivered promptly, allowing patients to receive their reports without delay.
- High Accessibility: It is designed for use in diverse medical settings such as clinics, hospitals, and screening centers, just like standard blood tests.
