AI integrata in MetaClinic® per individuare precocemente i segni compatibili con sospetta retinopatia diabetica.

Diabetic retinopathy is one of the most common complications of diabetes. Early detection is essential to reduce the risk of progression to more severe and potentially disabling forms of the disease.
Early detection is essential to reduce the risk of progression to more severe and potentially disabling forms of the disease.

The challenge is that ophthalmologic evaluations are not always performed as regularly as recommended.

According to AMD Annals data, fundus examinations are performed in 38.5% of people with type 1 diabetes and in 29.4% of people with type 2 diabetes.

Organizational factors often play a role as well: diabetes centers facing high clinical workloads, limited availability of ophthalmologic appointments, waiting lists, difficulties in accessing care, and care pathways that are not always fully integrated into everyday clinical management.

Meanwhile, retinopathy may progress silently.
In its early stages, it may not cause obvious symptoms, making the timely identification of disease signs even more important.

DAIRET® was developed to address this clinical and organizational need.

It is an artificial intelligence algorithm integrated into MetaClinic® that analyzes retinal fundus images directly within the diabetology electronic medical record, supporting physicians in the early identification of signs consistent with suspected diabetic retinopathy.

Physicians can review this information in the context of the patient’s clinical history, metabolic parameters, therapies, visits, and other relevant elements of the care pathway.

DAIRET® is already in use in several countries and is supported by significant evidence published in the scientific literature, including studies focused on the clinical effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of automated screening.

It supports diabetologists by helping identify risk earlier, prioritize clinical interventions, and enable more timely management of one of the most common and preventable complications of diabetes.
