How often should I use this diagnostic tool?+-
You can use the tool periodically to monitor potential changes, such as once every few weeks or months. However, it should not replace regular checkups with a healthcare professional. If you notice concerning results, follow up with a doctor.
How can I interpret the results?+-
Results are presented as risk levels: low, moderate, or high risk. A higher risk result means you should seek medical advice for further testing. A low-risk result does not guarantee the absence of diabetes, but you are at a very low risk.
I already have diabetes - can I still use the diabetes risk tool?+-
Yes, this tool can be useful for both people with and without diabetes.
Is my personal health information secure?+-
Yes, your data are protected using encryption and secure storage. Images and results are handled confidentially and are not shared without your consent.
Do I need a special camera or app?+-
No, there is no special equipment required. You can use your phone's standard camera, whether it is iOS or Android. Just make sure the image is clear and well-lit for the best results.
Are these diagnostic tools?+-
No, this is a risk assessment tool, not a diagnostic device. It is designed to provide general insights based on the image you submit. If you have concerns about your health or receive a high-risk result, you should consult a qualified medical professional for proper testing and advice.
