Diabetic Digest - Wednesday, May 19, 2010

Readers:

Last Friday was a big day for me. It was my anniversary,
twenty years of living with diabetes. Wow, I've never
been associated with anything for that long. Now that's
commitment.

In all seriousness, I have been very lucky with my health.
Thanks to my wife, my family, and my doctor, and his top-
notch nursing staff, living with diabetes has been easier
on me. Without them I don't know if I could have taken
control and gained a positive outlook on the situation.

Diabetes is not easy for anyone. It certainly wasn't for
me. Now with twenty successful years with it, I think I'm
ready to take on the next twenty.

Regards,
Steve

'Triad' screens for diabetic retinopathy

OAK RIDGE, Tenn. - U.S. scientists say they've developed
a machine that allows early diagnosis and treatment of
diabetic retinopathy and other potentially blinding
diseases. Oak Ridge National Laboratory researchers said
their Telemedical Retinal Image Analysis and Diagnosis
technology, known as TRIAD, could be a life-changer for
people at risk of diabetic retinopathy and eye diseases.
Officials said the technology -- recently licensed to
Automated Medical Diagnostics, a Memphis start-up company,
by ORNL and the University of Tennessee Health Science
Center -- can quickly screen for the disease in a doctor's
office or other remote sites, permitting early detection
and referral for diabetic retinopathy and other retinal
diseases. "If diabetic retinopathy is detected early,
treatments can preserve vision and significantly reduce
the incidence of debilitating blindness," said Professor
Edward Chaum at the university's Hamilton Eye Institute.
Chaum and ORNL's Ken Tobin led the team that developed
the device. "With the TRIAD network, all of the computed
diagnoses are sent to an ophthalmologist for review and
sign-off of the computer-generated report, much like what
is done for an EKG," Tobin said. "Over time, our hope is
that the number of reports requiring physician review
will be reduced as the performance of the TRIAD network
is proven through clinical testing." The research also
included scientists from the University of North Carolina
and the Delta Health Alliance.
