Development of an AI Solution to Evaluate Clinical Activity of TAO Using Periocular Images Taken by Smartphones in Patients With Thyroid Dysfunction

Development of an Artificial Intelligence Solution to Evaluate Clinical Activity of Thyroid Associated Orbitopathy Using Periocular Selfie Images Taken by Smartphones in Patients With Thyroid Dysfunction

This study was conducted to develop an AI solution to evaluate clinical activity score (CAS) of thyroid associated orbitopathy (TAO) using periocular selfie images taken by smartphones in patients with thyroid dysfunction.

An AI solution to evaluate CAS in TAO was developed in previous retrospective study using periorbital digital images taken by DSLR camera in the studio. This AI solution will be adjusted to show its best performance with periocular selfie images taken by smartphones.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Patients with thyroid eye disease

Exclusion Criteria:

• Patients who have prior facial anomaly or surgery
• Patients who cannot use smartphone camera app
