Abstract
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: The large number and heterogeneity of causes of uveitis make the etiological diagnosis a complex task. The clinician must consider all the information concerning the ophthalmological and extra-ophthalmological features of the patient. Diagnostic machine learning algorithms have been developed and provide a correct diagnosis in one-half to three-quarters of cases. However, they are not integrated into daily clinical practice. The aim is to determine whether machine learning models can predict the etiological diagnosis of uveitis from clinical information.
