People with diabetes across Dorset are being given the opportunity to complete their annual kidney health urine test from home, using a home test kit and a smartphone app. The ‘Minuteful kidney test’, delivered by Healthy.io, is quick and easy to complete in the comfort of your own home, and is used by your GP to detect kidney damage, using colorimetric analysis, computer vision, and AI.
