Breaking News: AI is Revolutionizing Neuropathy Diagnosis


Imagine a world where neuropathic pain is diagnosed in just 20 minutes instead of days, and AI can detect nerve damage before symptoms appear. That future is now—thanks to PGI Chandigarh’s AI-powered Quantitative Sensory Testing (QST) device.

➤ Traditional QST devices cost INR 40-50 lakh, making them inaccessible to most hospitals.

➤ PGI’s AI-powered QST device is priced at just INR 2 lakh, making cutting-edge diagnostics widely available.
➤ AI-powered testing delivers instant results, eliminating the need for expensive specialists and lengthy interpretations.

💡 AI in healthcare is no longer a distant dream—it’s here, and it’s revolutionizing how hospitals diagnose and treat patients. Specslo is leading this change, bringing AI-driven healthcare innovations to the industry.


The Problem : Why Traditional Neuropathy Diagnosis Fails


Despite its prevalence,
neuropathic pain is frequently misdiagnosed due to outdated and expensive diagnostic methods.

➤ High Cost – Traditional QST devices cost up to INR 50 lakh, making them unaffordable for most healthcare facilities.
➤ Slow & Inaccurate Results – Manual testing often results in delayed diagnosis and misinterpretation.
➤ Late-Stage Detection – By the time neuropathy is diagnosed, nerve damage is often irreversible.

📌 AI-powered diagnostics eliminate these challenges, making early, accurate, and cost-effective testing possible.


Game-Changing AI Technology : How PGIMER’s AI-Powered QST Device Works

➤ Developed at PGIMER Chandigarh, this AI-driven QST device is designed to improve neuropathic pain diagnosis significantly.

➤  Traditional QST systems cost INR 40-50 lakh, but this India-made device is priced at just INR 2 lakh, making it more accessible.

➤  AI simplifies the testing process, allowing even primary healthcare providers with minimal training to conduct tests efficiently.

➤  Unlike traditional methods that require trained technicians and lengthy analysis, the new AI-powered device delivers results within 20-30 minutes by assessing key sensory parameters like temperature, pressure, and vibration.

➤  Dr. Babita Ghai from the Department of Anaesthesia & Intensive Care at PGIMER led the development of this breakthrough device, securing an Indian patent for its innovative design.

➤  The project is supported by the Center of Innovation and Biodesign (CBIOD) and Thapar Institute, with efforts underway to obtain additional funding from ICMR for further development.

💡 PGIMER’s AI-driven device aligns with the hospital’s broader mission to integrate AI into healthcare, including early cancer detection and drone-assisted medical supply delivery.
