Malposition of a nasogastric tube (NGT) can lead to severe complications. We aimed to develop a computer-aided detection (CAD) system to localize NGTs and detect NGT malposition on portable chest X-rays (CXRs). A total of 7378 portable CXRs were retr...
Accurate placement of nasogastric tubes (NGTs) is crucial for ensuring patient safety and effective treatment. Traditional methods relying on manual inspection are susceptible to human error, highlighting the need for innovative solutions. This study...
