Tuberculosis (TB) diagnosis among sputum-scarce patients is time consuming. Thus, a nonsputum diagnostic alternative is urgently needed. The Mycobacterium tuberculosis-specific transrenal (Tr) DNA from urine is a potential target for TB diagnostics. ...

BACKGROUND: A concentration of specimen is recommended for the effective recovery of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB), but the bacteriological efficiency is not well evaluated. The present study evaluated the factors contributing to concentration eff...
This systematic review evaluates the application of machine learning (ML) models for diagnosing pulmonary tuberculosis and their potential to inform nursing practice and implementation strategies. Studies published between 2019 and 2024 were systemat...
BACKGROUND: Tuberculosis (TB) kills approximately 1.6 million people yearly despite the fact anti-TB drugs are generally curative. Therefore, TB-case detection and monitoring of therapy, need a comprehensive approach. Automated radiological analysis,...

BACKGROUND: Automated radiologic analysis using computer-aided detection software (CAD) could facilitate chest X-ray (CXR) use in tuberculosis diagnosis. There is little to no evidence on the accuracy of commercially available deep learning-based CAD...
OBJECTIVES: An accurate and rapid diagnosis is crucial for the appropriate treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis (TB). This study aims to develop an artificial intelligence (AI)-based fully automated CT image analysis system for detection, diagnosis, a...

The characteristics of pulmonary are complex, and the cost of manual screening is high. The detection model based on convolutional neural network is an essential method for assisted diagnosis with artificial intelligence. However, it also has the di...
There have been few independent evaluations of computer-aided detection (CAD) software for tuberculosis (TB) screening, despite the rapidly expanding array of available CAD solutions. We developed a test library of chest X-ray (CXR) images which was ...
Tuberculosis (TB) is the greatest irresistible illness in humans, caused by microbes Mycobacterium TB (MTB) bacteria and is an infectious disease that spreads from one individual to another through the air. It principally influences lung, which is te...
