Abstract

PURPOSE: Thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy (TAO) might lead to blindness and orbital deformity. The early diagnosis and treatment are conducive to control disease progression, but currently, there is no effective screening method. The present study aimed to introduce an artificial intelligence (AI) model for screening and testing the model with TAO patients under clinical conditions.
