RareLens: AI System for Rare Disease Diagnosis

ai-technology · 2026-07-29

RareLens is an AI system designed to support clinical decision-making across the entire rare disease trajectory. It addresses the challenge that rare diseases affect 3.5% to 5.9% of the population, with over 70% of patients misdiagnosed. The system exploits variability in reasoning from heterogeneous large language models, aligning and calibrating their divergent outputs into convergent, actionable decisions at each stage of care. RareLens consists of four coordinated modules, moving beyond existing AI systems that focus on isolated stages like diagnosis and depend on downstream investigation results.
