Abstract
Objective
To develop a deep learning algorithm for the analysis of patch testing.
Patients and Methods
A retrospective case series between January 1, 2010, and December 31, 2020, was constructed to develop a deep learning model for the classification of patch test results from photographs. The performance of human expert readers reviewing the same photographs blinded to the original clinical physical examination findings was measured to benchmark model performance.
Results
Model performance on the independent test set (n=5070 test site locations from 37 patients) achieved an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.89 (95% CI, 0.86-0.91) and an F1 score of 37.1. The optimal cutoff had a sensitivity of 70.1% (136/194; 95% CI, 63.1%-76.5%) and a specificity of 91.7% (4472/4876; 95% CI, 90.9%-92.5%).
Conclusion
We demonstrated proof-of-concept utility for detecting allergic contact dermatitis using an automated deep learning approach.
