Scalable and objective wound infection screening from clinical images using deep learning
Deep learning applied to clinical wound images provides a scalable and objective approach for wound infection screening. Such tools have the potential to support earlier detection, reduce diagnostic variability, and improve wound management and antimicrobial stewardship, particularly in public health and resource-limited settings.
