Development of a diagnostic support system for the fibrosis of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease using artificial intelligence and deep learning.

Liver fibrosis is a pathological condition characterized by the abnormal proliferation of liver tissue, subsequently able to progress to cirrhosis or possibly hepatocellular carcinoma. The development of artificial intelligence and deep learning have begun to play a significant role in fibrosis detection. This study aimed to develop SMART AI-PATHO, a fully automated assessment method combining qua...

The utility of artificial intelligence in identifying radiological evidence of lung cancer and pulmonary tuberculosis in a high-burden tuberculosis setting.

BACKGROUND: Artificial intelligence (AI), using deep learning (DL) systems, can be utilised to detect radiological changes of various pulmonary diseases. Settings with a high burden of tuberculosis (TB) and people living with HIV can potentially benefit from the use of AI to augment resource-constrained healthcare systems.
