Vibraimage technology captures high-frame-rate images of head-neck movements, converting them into vibraimages that display muscle vibration amplitude and frequency. Using algorithms and calculations, it derives an emotional index from these images. This non-contact, objective method analyzes psychological indicators through micro-movement detection. An algorithm has been developed to detect depression by calculating 12 emotional and 2 psychophysiological parameters. This diagnostic accuracy study aims to validate the technology's ability to diagnose depression in psychiatric outpatients.
8,057 studies on the registry are indexed under Depression; 1,641 are open to participants now.
This study's enrollment of 601 is above the median of 160 across 1,084 observational studies indexed under Depression.

Exclusion Criteria:
This group consists of individuals who were ultimately diagnosed with depression by a specialist physician.
Diagnostic Test: Video capture
This group consists of individuals who were ultimately diagnosed as not having depression by a specialist physician.
Diagnostic Test: Video capture
A 20-second video capture of head-neck movements at high frame rates is conducted for all participants to obtain high-resolution images. The captured videos are analyzed using an algorithm based on Vibraimage technology to infer whether the participants have depression.
discrimination
The primary outcome measure is the diagnostic discrimination of Vibraimage technology for depression, assessed by calculating the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Participants first undergo video capture, followed by a clinical diagnosis of depression by a physician. Both the physician and participants are blinded to the results of the video analysis.
Time frame: Participants undergo video capture and same-day clinical diagnosis by a physician. Video analysis and suggestive diagnosis are completed on the following day.
Plan to share: Yes — De-identified individual participant data will be made available to qualified researchers upon reasonable request. Data sharing will be subject to approval by the principal investigator (PI) and the study sponsor.
