Artificial Intelligence-Aided Screening for Patients With Diabetic Retinopathy and Age-related Macular Degeneration in Family Medicine and Geriatric Medicine Outpatient Clinics: A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial

Study Type: Interventional
Study Phase: Not Applicable
SUMMARY

Diabetic retinopathy (DR) and age-related macular degeneration (AMD) are leading causes of vision loss, with rising incidence due to aging populations and increasing diabetes prevalence. However, delayed diagnoses are common due to low disease literacy and lack of dedicated screening tools in internal medicine. This multi-center RCT at National Taiwan University Hospital evaluates the clinical effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of the VeriSee AI-assisted diagnostic software for DR and AMD screening. Participants include adults with diabetes and individuals aged 50 and above meeting AMD screening criteria, randomized to AI-assisted screening with immediate physician explanation or standard physician-only screening. Primary outcomes include detection rates of DR and AMD, ophthalmology referral outcomes, and patient/physician satisfaction. Data collection will occur from April 2025 to December 2027. This study aims to provide evidence on the clinical utility of AI-assisted ophthalmic screening in improving early detection, facilitating timely treatment, and reducing severe visual impairment and healthcare burdens in real-world clinical settings.

Treatments
Experimental: AI-Assisted Screening
Intervention group (physicians assisted by AI): After the fundus photography is completed, the AI software (VeriSee AMD and VeriSee DR) will automatically retrieve and analyze the image data from Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) to generate the results. The research team will immediately provide the AI-generate results to physicians, enabling participants to receive their reports and results during the same visit. If any abnormalities are detected, the physicians will refer the participants for further ophthalmologic evaluation.
Active_comparator: Standard Physician Screening
Control group (physicians diagnosing without AI assistance): After the fundus photography is completed, participants will need to schedule a follow-up appointment with the attending physicians to receive their report and have preliminary assessment of the possibility of DR or AMD. If the physician detects any abnormalities, the physicians will refer the participants for further ophthalmologic evaluation.
