AI spots hidden lumps that mess with insulin

NCT ID NCT05377268

First seen May 11, 2026 · Last updated May 11, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether a machine learning program can detect hidden lumps (lipohypertrophy) under the skin where people with diabetes inject insulin. These lumps can change how insulin is absorbed and raise blood sugar. Researchers will use portable ultrasound images to train the AI, then check if avoiding these spots improves glucose levels. About 100 adults with type 1 or type 2 diabetes who use insulin will take part.
