Abstract

Thrombophilia, a predisposition to thrombosis, poses significant diagnostic challenges due to its multi-factorial nature, encompassing genetic and acquired factors. Current diagnostic paradigms, primarily relying on a combination of clinical assessment and targeted laboratory tests, often fail to capture the complex interplay of factors contributing to thrombophilia risk. This paper proposes an innovative artificial intelligence (AI)-based methodology aimed to enhance the prediction of thrombophilia risk. The designed multidimensional risk assessment model integrates and elaborates through AI a comprehensive collection of patient data types, including genetic markers, clinical parameters, patient history, and lifestyle factors, in order to obtain advanced and personalized explainable diagnoses.
