    Ocular malignant surface tumors are often misdiagnosed due to public misconceptions, leading to delays in specialist evaluation and advanced disease stages.

  • 2

    Diagnostic delays for ocular tumors can result in severe consequences, including facial disfigurement and increased risk of life-threatening metastasis.

  • 3

    Traditional healthcare models struggle to implement large-scale screening for rare diseases due to limited specialist capacity and financial resources.

  • 4

    The CaptureTumor (CaT) system integrates AI-driven self-screening with public education and referral pathways to enhance access to specialist care.

  • 5

    The study involved a three-stage process to develop and validate a smartphone-based screening system for ocular surface tumors across China.
