Quantitative Imaging for Hair Loss Driven by Artificial Intelligence at ISHRS 2024
Sam Esposito, Canfield Scientific’s Product Management Director, presented a keynote lecture at the 32nd International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery (ISHRS) Congress. The congress was held from Oct 17th to 19th at the Sheraton Denver Downtown Hotel.
Speaking to a global audience of hair transplant surgeons, plastic surgeons, and dermatologists from over 55 countries, Mr. Esposito’s talk focused on Quantitative Imaging for Hair Loss Driven by Artificial Intelligence. He highlighted the revolutionary role of HairMetrix®, the first AI-driven, non-invasive hair consultation tool developed by Canfield, in transforming the way hair loss is assessed and treated.
This groundbreaking solution significantly enhances hair loss treatments by offering fully automated, real-time hair analysis of key parameters such as hair count per cm2, sum of hair width per cm2, and terminal to vellus ratio. The tool also measures the Anagen/Telogen ratio and growth rate for a more advanced understanding of hair loss, allowing for appropriate treatment plans and objective outcome monitoring to be easily communicated to patients.
Additionally, Mr. Esposito traced Canfield’s more than 35-year journey in supporting hair growth studies, including those for FDA approved treatments. Canfield pioneered the key methodologies used in clinical trials today, as well as the most advanced AI-based methods for unclipped hair consultations. This ongoing commitment to innovation laid the groundwork for the development of HairMetrix, now utilized by top hospitals and practices worldwide.
The presentation garnered considerable interest at the congress, with many attendees expressing strong desire to learn more about AI-driven hair analysis and its potential for improving patient care.
