KANSAS CITY, Mo. — It’s that time of year when we start baring more skin and noticing more bumps, rashes and troubling spots. Your doctor may be more apt to give you a correct diagnosis with an app.

“My arm just seemed like it had a larger rash on it before, and I thought it was eczema,” says patient Holly McKinney.

Dr. David Voran of Truman Medical Center Lakewood doesn’t think it’s eczema. But the family practice doc knows skin conditions can be tricky to diagnose.

“My guess is that on the primary care side, 30 to 40 percent of the time, we may have picked the wrong one from our fund of knowledge,” says Dr. Voran.

To improve his accuracy, Dr. Voran adds an app called VisualDX. It’s just for medical professionals. He inputs the symptoms, the location on the body and other details. The app produces photographs that can lead to or help confirm the doc’s diagnosis.

GRAIN VALLEY, Mo. — A diploma debate is brewing after 18-year-old Brian Ostrander was killed in a car crash last fall.

“He was a part of that school district for 13 years and to have him not recognized with his senior class is just really upsetting, ” said Barbara Ostrander about her only child.

Tuesday evening, Barbara went to Grain Valley High School’s graduation ceremony hoping her son would’ve been recognized more, but she left disappointed.

“I’m seeing all the graduation parties and all the kids with congratulations on their cars and things and it just reminds me I don’t have that. I’m never gonna have that, ” Ostrander said, as she wiped tears from her eyes.

Last October, Brian was killed after a drunk driver’s motorcycle slammed into the driver-side of Brian’s car. The motorcyclist also died in the collision on Route BB in Grain Valley.

LENEXA, Kan. — As Americans prepare to honor service men and women this Memorial Day, some Johnson County Boy Scouts are one step ahead.

Hundreds of flags went up Wednesday afternoon near Interstate 435 and 95th Street.

“When we see people walk through here and enjoy the flags because they’ve had people serve or die in the Army, just a good feeling to know that we are doing this for soldiers that are fighting for our freedom,” said Nick Jones with Boy Scout Troop 162.

It’s not the first time the troop has rolled out this labor of love and respect. But this year, they had help from four women who know all too well about losing a service member.

“It really brings a tear to my eye, but it’s a tear of pride,” said Debbie Austin Lamberd, a member of American Gold Star Mothers.
