DDeXpert

Inspiration

Time is extremely valuable in the medical world, and our goal is to reduce the amount of time physicians must spend reaching a conclusion on a diagnosis by creating a program that can help relieve this burden.

What it does

DDeXpert uses an algorithm that analyzes patient laboratory data to quickly develop a weighted differential diagnosis of possible renal diseases.

How we built it

We created the diagnosing algorithm using C++ then paired it with a web server we created using Express to create the user interface.

Challenges we ran into

Steep learning curve for Express, learning renal physiology

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We were able to learn Express, a language we were not familiar with to start!

What we learned

Renal physiology, Express, C++, JavaScript, how to launch a website, Unix, Linux

What's next for DDeXpert

Branch out to diseases outside the kidney. Present idea to medical faculty.
