Script for the Demonstration Video Around the world, a woman dies of cervical cancer every 2 minutes. Over 80% of the deaths occur in the developing world, with sub-Saharan Africa being the worst-affected . This is likely a consequence of the spread of HIV in the region. Transmission of the human papilloma viruses that cause cervical cancer is facilitated by the presence of HIV infection. In addition, progression is accelerated by the immunosuppression that results from HIV. In Zambia, cervical cancer strikes 63 women in 100,000, affecting women at a time of life when they are critical to social and economic stability. But cervical cancer has a long pre-clinical phase, and thus, is highly preventable through yearly pap smears that facilitate detection and treatment of pre-cancerous lesions. Such screening, which is routine in countries like the US, is not possible in most countries because of the resources it requires. Visual inspection of the cervix after painting with vinegar, or VIA, to detect pre-cancerous lesions has emerged as a cheaper alternative in developing countries. Studies have demonstrated that this cheaper prevention program is effective in reducing the incidence of and the death rate from cervical cancer. Since 2006, through the Center for Infectious Disease Research in Zambia or CIDRZ, ??? have undergone cervical cancer screening through VIA performed by nurses. In up to 10% of cases, it is difficult to say whether the findings on VIA are precancerous or not. Currently, the nurses would err on the safe side, diagnose these indeterminate cases as precancerous, treat them with cryotherapy, and arrange follow-up visits for these women. A significant number of false-positives is thus inevitable in this set-up, leading to unnecessary follow-up visits. This further constrains an already severely-constrained labor resources. Needless to say, input from a specialist would be very helpful in these situations. The goal of this project is to facilitate, using information and communication technology, real-time specialist support for nurses. This is the only way to be able to scale cervical cancer screening using VIA to the rest of the country. We developed a software application that allows the nurses to take photographs of the cervix, and transmit the images accompanied by relevant clinical information to a central server using GPRS. The server then alerts a specialist-on-call that a nurse is requesting decision support. The URL of the image and the clinical information is sent to the doctor via MMS. The doctor then calls the nurse and reviews the case after accessing the data from the server, and a decision is made. The plan of treatment is entered into the central server by the doctor. Archiving and information management at a central server is necessary in order to be able to track the progress of a patient, including clinical outcomes. It is also crucial for quality assurance and quality improvement. All the images, diagnosis and treatment plans are reviewed by the nurses and specialists regularly at a later time. What we?d like to see is a reduction over time of not only misdiagnoses, but also of indeterminate cases requiring specialist support. Finally, once a large database of cervical images has accumulated that are linked to both diagnoses that have been QA?d and clinical outcomes, it may be possible to come up with artificial intelligence tools that can classify images of indeterminate cervical lesions, further reducing the need for specialist support. Although this software application was initially developed to facilitate cervical cancer screening, it will be useful for a wide variety of scenarios in health care delivery. Consider this hypothetical case. A gentleman from a far-flung region is brought to Lusaka complaining of abdominal pains. A blockage is found in his intestines, requiring an operation to remove a portion of his intestines. He is discharged after the surgery with instructions for regular follow-up to monitor the healing of the wound from the operation. A week later, the patient notices some redness around the edges of the wound. But because it is a full-day trip to Lusaka, he decides against the trip and he monitors the wound himself. A few days later, the patient dies as a result of a massive infection of the surgical wound. This software application can be a tremendous help for follow-up of patients who live in remote areas, especially if visual inspection is crucial in the clinical examination, such as in dermatology and wound care. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Only two thoughts: 1. the term "long pre-clinical phase" sounds like a drug development trajectory. How about "extended period of development before serious symptoms are noticed"? 2. You can say "is likely to" rather than "may" when you talk about the possibility of classifying images using AI. We know we can do it, the only major challenge (I think) is "can we get high enough quality images to train on, and train care workers to take good photos?" (or provide real time feedback from the device about when the photo is bad - an essential facility you would need for the latter wound care example you talk about where a non-expert [the patient] is taking the photo)? -Gari 2008/5/3 Leo Anthony Celi : > This is 4 minutes and 56 seconds on rehearsal. > ** > *Script for the Demonstration Video* > Around the world, a woman dies of cervical cancer every 2 minutes.

I would drop the outline slide and just jump straight into the problem. Can you condense any of the other slides? 'Insuring' should be 'ensuring' on the last two slides. You might want to throw a map up of where Zambia is and explain the GSM connectivity in the country in relation to where health posts are just to give some people visual ref. and understand the infrastructure you are dealing with.

You have written: "Once a large database of cervical images *has *accumulated that are linked to both diagnoses that *have *been QA'd and clinical outcomes, it is *likely possible* to come up with artificial intelligence tools that can classify images of indeterminate cervical lesions, further reducing the need for specialist support." I would use "Once a large database of cervical images with associated clinical outcomes and other pertinent medical data has accumulated and been QA'd, it is likely that artificial intelligence tools can be used to classify images of indeterminate cervical lesions and provide real-time QA, further reducing the need for specialist support." Also, the next sentence doesn't make sense: "Although this software application was initially developed to facilitate cervical cancer screening, this software application can be used for longitudinal care of patients who live in remote areas, especially if visual inspection is crucial in their clinical monitoring, such as in dermatology and wound care." First - I would change "this software" to "our software" to make it clear that you are talking about the existing software rather than the AI classifier you refer to in the preceding sentence. Then, it still reads a little oddly. How about: "Although initially developed to facilitate cervical cancer screening, our software application has a general applicability for the longitudinal care of patients who live in remote areas, particularly for medical problems where visual inspection is crucial for a patient's ongoing clinical evaluation, such as for skin cancer, dermatology and wound care." -G 2008/5/4 Leo Anthony Celi : > > _______________________________________________ > Cidrz mailing list > Cidrz at mit.edu > http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/cidrz > > -- G.

They do a multiresolution/magnification scan and send them for referral by the pathologiests. currently the quoted price per scan/referral is 30 dollars per, which is ridiculously expensive for cidrz, and it looks like they have some inefficiencies within that system (ie, it might be all email based and all the emails are person monitored vs. done on a website), but maybe the bandwidth and upkeep of equipment and computers on the lab end could be high too. Parham was saying that these rates are also added because they are in excess of what they have for regular traffic as it is. my own curiosity has me wondering about this. but anyway for reference, here's how they look side by side. dan -- Daniel Myung Senior Engineer Dimagi, Inc | One Kendall Square | Bldg. 400, 4th Floor | Cambridge, MA 02139 work: (617) 621 8595 | cell: (617) 645 3236 http://www.dimagi.com/ -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

He _may_ fund one of us, but I doubt that he'd fund all of us to Zambia (he's still reeling from the last trip a student took to Africa and presented him with the bill).

Will they pay for the flight and accommodation in advance? best -Gari PS I think Jhonatan may partially fund a UROP - we'd have to talk to him about that ...

I haven't talked to parham at length yet on what other level of funding they are able to afford on this. Zambia is actually very expensive for the per diem cost for a traveler, so securing funding is certainly key. I'll get the conversation going w/ him to see what the exact agreements are going to be. if MIT can help offset some of it, that'd be great for CIDRZ, but like you said Gari, the sticker shock from expected value might make even that tricky.

That's great that CIDRZ will cover the accommodation (I'm OK with any level of housing - shared with other interns or workers is fine), so we just need to work out what sort of transport and food costs there are.
