Approximately 300 million people worldwide suffer from a rare disease. An optimal treatment requires a successful diagnosis. This takes a particularly long time, especially for rare diseases. Digital diagnosis support systems could be important aids in accelerating a successful diagnosis in the future.
The current possibilities of digital diagnostic support systems in the diagnosis of rare diseases and questions that still need to be clarified are presented in relation to the parameters of ethics, economy and quality of life.
Current research results of the authors were compiled and discussed in the context of the current literature. A case study is used to illustrate the potential of digital diagnostic support systems.
Digital diagnostic support systems and experts together can accelerate the successful diagnosis in patients with rare diseases. This could have a positive impact on patients' quality of life and lead to potential savings in direct and indirect costs in the healthcare system.
Ensuring data security, legal certainty and functionality in the use of digital diagnostic support systems is of great importance in order to create trust among experts and patients. Continuous further development of the systems by means of artificial intelligence (AI) could also enable patients to accelerate diagnosis in the future.
