Had a great time at #sid2024! Got to present more of my work on AI in dermatology 😊

@JeromeAdamsMD Koala!

[Adarsh Ravishankar @AdarshRavis]

Of course, we have the benefit of hindsight and nearly a century of advancements! Though I about the practices we have now which will be considered crazy in the next few years 🤔

[Adarsh Ravishankar @AdarshRavis]

I came across the 1st ed. of the Andrews Dermatology textbook from 1930! (We’re on 13th ed. now)

It’s a fun look into how far we’ve come in Derm!

This was before:
- Topical steroids (1950s)
- Tretinoin (1960s)
- Penicillin (first tested in 1930)

Some things did stand the test of time (+/-) like UV therapy for psoriasis

[Adarsh Ravishankar @AdarshRavis]

But in the end going back to medicine put my Derm education into context, and I feel much more "well rounded" as a result!

As a PGY-3 in a med-derm residency, I just finished my first 3 months of IM after over a YEAR of dermatology! Here are my takeaways (a small 🧵) #medderm #dermtwitter

[Adarsh Ravishankar @AdarshRavis]

It isn't a walk in the park by any means, especially as a senior resident in the wards (also I don't miss night float 🥱)

@TChaikijurajai @MayoCVFellows @MayoClinicCV @Taopitchaya @umnmedresidency @TheNRMP Congrats!! 👏

[Adarsh Ravishankar @AdarshRavis]

For the sake of transparency, we have included demographic information and code in the paper as well!

Working on this project has given me insight into the amazing potential of AI but also the potential pitfalls that doctors should be made aware of.

Stay tuned for more!

My first project with #AI in #dermatology has just been published!!! 🎉 I am SUPER DUPER excited about this one!!! 😀

We show the potential of convolutional neural networks in interpreting patch tests for allergic contact dermatitis !

[Adarsh Ravishankar @AdarshRavis]

Super excited and grateful for this opportunity!!!

New paper out! 🎉
Validation and Performance of a Deterioration Index Model in Hospitalized Adults https://t.co/4tclMIQC4H

[Adarsh Ravishankar @AdarshRavis]

Super grateful for the opportunity to present my research on #AI for allergic contact dermatitis at #ISID2023Tokyo! It is great to hear about the work going on by amazing dermatologists and researchers around the world!

DERMATOMYOSITIS (DM)

Let’s spend some time in this #tweetorial on the dermatologic manifestations of this potentially paraneoplastic disease!

First, a question: What is necessary to make a diagnosis of DM?

If insurance is going to use our time by denying necessary meds, we can at least use AI to make our job marginally easier! I asked ChatGPT to write a letter to the insurance company and this is what I got...
