Thyroid-SPOT for mobile devices: personalised thyroid treatment management app
Abstract
Abstract Thyroid-SPOT is a mobile application that allows users to be able to analyse thyroid function tests laboratory reports by computing the homeostatic euthyroid set point based on regressing thyroid function data according to a patented algorithm to define the parameters that maximize the goodness-of-fit to a negative exponential model for target-centric individualized treatment. The app facilitates analysis and optimization of treatment plans, while also allowing both patients and doctors to stay up to date with a function that allows “.txt” files to be imported and exported to and from Dropbox. The app improves treatment monitoring, allowing clinical analysis to be on-the go, thus boosting healthcare.
