Abstract

INTRODUCTION: In recent years, systems that use artificial intelligence (AI) in medical imaging have been developed, such as the interpretation of chest X-ray to rule out pathology. This has produced an increase in systematic reviews (SR) published on this topic. This article aims to evaluate the methodological quality of SRs that use AI for the diagnosis of thoracic pathology by simple chest X-ray.
