Deep learning, computer-aided radiography reading for tuberculosis: a diagnostic accuracy study from a tertiary hospital in India.

Scientific reports
In general, chest radiographs (CXR) have high sensitivity and moderate specificity for active pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) screening when interpreted by human readers. However, they are challenging to scale due to hardware costs and the dearth of pro...

An automatic method for lung segmentation and reconstruction in chest X-ray using deep neural networks.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Chest X-ray (CXR) is one of the most used imaging techniques for detection and diagnosis of pulmonary diseases. A critical component in any computer-aided system, for either detection or diagnosis in digital CXR, is the auto...

An effective and accurate identification system of Mycobacterium tuberculosis using convolution neural networks.

Microscopy research and technique
Tuberculosis (TB) remains the leading cause of morbidity and mortality from infectious disease in developing countries. The sputum smear microscopy remains the primary diagnostic laboratory test. However, microscopic examination is always time-consum...

How far have we come? Artificial intelligence for chest radiograph interpretation.

Clinical radiology
Due to recent advances in artificial intelligence, there is renewed interest in automating interpretation of imaging tests. Chest radiographs are particularly interesting due to many factors: relatively inexpensive equipment, importance to public hea...

Deep Learning Algorithms with Demographic Information Help to Detect Tuberculosis in Chest Radiographs in Annual Workers' Health Examination Data.

International journal of environmental research and public health
We aimed to use deep learning to detect tuberculosis in chest radiographs in annual workers' health examination data and compare the performances of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) based on images only (I-CNN) and CNNs including demographic vari...

Tuberculosis diagnosis support analysis for precarious health information systems.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Pulmonary tuberculosis is a world emergency for the World Health Organization. Techniques and new diagnosis tools are important to battle this bacterial infection. There have been many advances in all those fields, but in de...
