As part of the MINT study, patients can follow the instructions provided to record a video and submit it by clicking the button below. By participating, you agree to sign consent for the MCTC team to use your video in our research. The video will be processed to remove personal identifiers, creating a masked dataset that will be shared as a public dataset for other researchers. This dataset will help train models and further scientific advancements, with the aim of beating our current benchmark algorithm.
We will share the data in that format and make it publically avaliable so other researchers can use it to refine their code and develop better solutions for quantification of myositis progression.
