Antimicrobial resistance is a major global health threat. This paper presents an AI-based, offline smartphone application for antibiogram analysis. The application captures images, guides the user through analysis, and provides interpreted results. Its automatic measurement procedure achieves high agreement with hospital-standard and manual systems, reducing inter-operator variability. The application is suited for resource-limited settings, increasing access to antibiotic susceptibility testing worldwide.
