Abstract: The present invention concerns computer-implemented methods for use in lateral flow test evaluation. One embodiment of such a method comprises obtaining, preferably by a mobile electronic device (110), a digital image (202) that depicts at least one test cassette (100), wherein the test cassette (100) comprises at least one viewport (102) and wherein the viewport (102) comprises at least one test indicator (104). The method may comprise performing, preferably by the mobile electronic device (110), an image segmentation step (204) to recognize at least one test indicator (104) depicted in the digital image (202), and performing an evaluation step (206) for producing at least one evaluation result (208) based, at least in part, on the recognized at least one test indicator (104).

Abstract: An analyte testing system for quantifying the presence of an analyte in a specimen by immunochromatography. The system comprises a camera test card, depicting a test cassette (10) with an immunochromatography and a handheld processor device (16) comprising a digital camera (16a), a source of light (16b) and a processor (16c), which software and hardware (16c) are configured to make a pose estimation of camera and object and the measures of light in the region of interest of the immunochromatography. The system allows an automatic camera calibration and certification as a scanner for use in point-of-care diagnostics.
