Description
Ludovica Borsoi and three co-authors wrote this 2025 report on the hard problem of evaluating an AI health app fairly. The app, from the CINDERELLA project, shows breast cancer patients photographs of likely aesthetic outcomes to support shared decisions about local treatment. Its trial spans seven sites in five countries and has recruited a thousand patients.
Early engagement looks good: patients averaged about nineteen minutes in the app across a median of four logins, with usage barely differing by age, country, or surgery type. The authors describe the fuller evaluation being built around the trial: cost-effectiveness from a societal view, budget impact, usability, organizational fit, and even environmental footprint. Focus groups exposed how differently hospitals are organized, which will shape interpretation. Their argument is that digital health tools deserve this multidimensional scrutiny before health systems adopt them.
