Digital device reads skin prick test results
Part of Immune system & allergy, Skin clinical trials.
This study tests a digital device that reads the results of skin prick tests for allergies, which might be faster and more accurate than the usual eye-based reading. It could help people with allergies get clearer answers about what triggers their symptoms.
