AI‐Assisted Fungal Detection in Dermatopathology: A Study on Accuracy, Efficiency, and Usability
JDDG: Journal der Deutschen Dermatologischen Gesellschaft, EarlyView.Summary Background and Objectives AI‐based image analysis is increasingly applied in pathology. Excluding fungal elements in PAS‐stained skin sections is labor‐intensive and well suited for AI assistance. While fungal detection in nails has been studied, skin‐biopsy applications and real‐world benefit remain limited.
