Every AI function on InstaPraxis is decision-support. It produces a screening indication for you to discuss with a registered medical practitioner. None of them diagnoses a disease, and none of them replaces a physical examination, a laboratory test or an imaging report issued by a qualified professional.
Each measurement is also labelled with how it was arrived at — measured (read directly from the image or signal), estimated (inferred from image texture or an acoustic model) or indicative (a rough screen a phone camera cannot do properly). Look at that label before you act on a number.
Common limitations
- Lighting, camera quality and distance change results more than most people expect. Compare scans taken in similar conditions.
- Accuracy has not been established separately for every skin tone, age group or device. We say so rather than implying otherwise.
- A result that looks reassuring is not evidence of health. Symptoms matter more than scores.
- Make-up, moisturiser, sunscreen, nail polish, eye drops and recent exercise all change what the camera sees.
- No AI function here is validated for use in an emergency, for monitoring a diagnosed condition, or for deciding treatment.
Function-by-function labelling
Reporting a problem
If you believe a result was wrong in a way that mattered, please tell us — it goes into our post-market surveillance record and is investigated. See the grievance page, or write to info@instadatahelp.com with "Safety" in the subject.
