Abstract
Presented are systems and methods for the accurate acquisition of medical measurement data of a body part of patient. To assist in acquiring accurate medical measurement data, an automated diagnostic and treatment system provides instructions to the patient to allow the patient to precisely position a medical instrument in proximity to a target spot of a body part of patient. Based on a series of images acquired from a kiosk camera and an instrument camera, these instructions are generated. Subsequent images from instrument camera are analyzed by automated diagnostic and treatment system utilizing a database and deep convolution neural network (DCNN) to obtain measured medical data. An error threshold measurement by the automated diagnostic and treatment system may determine the accuracy of the instrument positioning and the medical measured data. The measured medical data may be communicated to a physician.
