AI Eyes on TD: Could Video-Based Detection Shrink the Diagnosis Gap?

By Gina ShawDespite the availability of effective treatments, tardive dyskinesia (TD) remains widely under-recognized. Estimates suggest that only a small number of affected patients are formally diagnosed, and fewer still receive targeted therapy (BMC Psychiatry 2025;25:407). A new study exploring video-based artificial intelligence for TD detection raises the possibility that technology could help close that gap—but experts caution that AI should augment, not replace, clinical judgment.f
