How can closely related mental illnesses with similar symptoms be reliably distinguished from one another? As part of a German-Chinese collaboration, researchers from Forschungszentrum Jülich and Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf (HHU) have helped develop a decision tree aimed at improving diagnostic accuracy. The team used a combination of diagnostic techniques and artificial intelligence (AI). As the authors report in Science Advances, their findings could substantially increase the precision of psychiatric diagnoses.
