Prolonged Turnaround Time of the Hematology Laboratory and Related Factors in the South Gondar Zone, North West Ethiopia, Multi‐Centered Study

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
Long turnaround times were prevalent in the hematology laboratories of South Gonder zone hospitals, predominantly as a result of staff incompetence. Clotted blood samples, low blood fill levels, and the day of the week were significant factors linked to delays, with samples collected on Friday having a higher likelihood of prolonged turnaround time ...

Performance of a Deep Learning Algorithm for Melanoma Classification Across Diverse Dermoscopic and Tele‐Dermatology Datasets

JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Early detection of melanoma significantly boosts patient survival rates. Deep learning has demonstrated dermatologist‐level accuracy in assessing pigmented skin lesions by analysing images at the pixel level. However, these neural networks may face challenges with ‘real‐life’ images due to limited training data and image artefacts ...
