The image analysis algorithm is evaluated to analyse LFAs with NE biomarker to determine the patient in a high-risk category for exacerbations. The device communicates the analysis result to medical professionals for daily historical logging for daily health monitoring without regular hospital appointments. The low-cost approach of the proposed system and image analysis approach can be adapted to analyse different biomarkers for other health concerns including multiplex LFAs without additional hardware in the reader design.
