Introduction​

Legit.Health presents a groundbreaking advancement in dermatological assessment technology: the APASI (Automatic Psoriasis Area and Severity Index) system. This innovative solution harnesses the power of artificial intelligence to analyze clinical images and automatically calculate standardized PASI scores, transforming how psoriasis severity is evaluated in clinical practice and research.

Using computer vision algorithms, our researchers have created a tool that processes smartphone images and automatically translates them into the domain of the PASI, providing objective, rapid, and precise evaluations that complement traditional clinical assessment methods.

In 2020, the healthcare provider Ribera Salud and Legit.Health started working together in one of the group's hospitals, the Torrejón Hospital, to implement the revolutionary algorithmic technology that, 2 years later, has shown excellent results thanks to the amazing job done by the doctors.

The pandemic could be a blessing in disguise, as it forced the teams to truly push the possibilities of remote care to new heights. In this particular case, the team at Torrejón Hospital needed to follow up on the patient's treatment but could not ensure all of them could go to the medical centre due to COVID-19.

Watch Dr Elena Sanchez Largo's presentation: Artificial Intelligence for Remote Monitoring of Patients With Skin Conditions, where she lays out an overview of how the hospital uses Legit.Health's solution.
