ABSTRACT
HealthCure is an innovative medical project designed to provide an all-in-one solution for the detection of seven critical diseases using advanced machine learning, computer vision, and deep learning technologies. The project aims to revolutionize healthcare by enabling users to obtain immediate diagnostic results from the comfort of their homes, making medical testing more accessible and efficient.
The backend of HealthCure is powered by Flask, a lightweight and flexible web framework that facilitates rapid development and seamless integration of various machine learning models. The core of the diagnostic capabilities relies on Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), particularly for image-based disease detection tasks. Custom CNN architectures and pre-trained models like VGG-16 are utilized to achieve high accuracy in detecting conditions such as Covid-19, brain tumors, and pneumonia. For numerical data-based diseases, such as diabetes and heart disease, algorithms like Random Forest and XGBoost are implemented, leveraging their robustness and precision in handling structured data.
Data storage and management are efficiently handled using SQLite, ensuring quick access and retrieval of user data and diagnostic results. The backend also employs RESTful API design, enabling smooth and efficient communication between the front-end and back-end, providing real-time data processing and immediate feedback.
On the front-end, technologies like HTML, CSS, and JavaScript are used to create a responsive and user-friendly interface. Frameworks such as React.js and Bootstrap ensure a dynamic, interactive, and visually appealing user experience. Users can easily input data and receive diagnostic results with just a few clicks, making the application highly accessible across various devices.
HealthCure also emphasizes future scalability and improvement. As more data becomes available, the models will be continually refined to enhance accuracy and include additional disease detection capabilities. Plans for integrating features such as personalized health advice and real-time monitoring are also underway.
This comprehensive approach makes HealthCure a powerful, reliable, and scalable platform for real-time medical diagnostics, significantly contributing to improved health outcomes and patient care.
