What is the difference between the database and the app?
The website GestaltMatcher Database (GMDB) and the GestaltMatcher app (Android | Apple) serve different purposes, although both allow you to access GestaltMatcher AI:
GMDB is a web-based platform where clinicians and researchers can upload cases, explore shared data (depending on patient consent), and compare subgroups of cases using a phenotype comparison tool. Moreover, GestaltMatcher AI can be accessed through GMDB without the need to create a case.
The GestaltMatcher app provides quick access to GestaltMatcher AI from a smartphone or tablet. Users can take or upload a photo, run the analysis, and receive a ranked list of potential differential diagnoses. The app is intended for on-the-go use and does not include database access or comparison features.
In short, GestaltMatcher Database is designed for case sharing, research, and advanced analysis, while the GestaltMatcher app offers a simplified way to use the AI for analyses on your mobile device.
