New Smartphone App Diagnoses Strokes

The technology employs a smartphone to detect issues in a patient’s speech and facial movements.

In the same vein, a recent Medgadget article discussed a new tool for rapidly diagnosing strokes. The technology, developed by researchers at Penn State and Houston Methodist Hospital, uses a smartphone to record the speech and facial movements of the user. The data is then processed with a machine-learning algorithm to determine whether a stroke likely occurred.
