Chest radiography, or X-ray, one of the most common imaging exams worldwide, is performed to help diagnose the source of symptoms like cough, fever and pain. Despite its popularity, the exam has limitations. Deep learning, a sophisticated type of AI in which the computer can be trained to recognize subtle patterns, has the potential to improve chest X-ray interpretation.

It has the potential to augment the use of chest radiography in clinical radiology A sophisticated type of artificial intelligence (AI) can detect clinically meaningful chest X-ray findings as effectively as experienced radiologists, according to a study published in the journal Radiology . Researchers said their findings, based on a type of AI called deep learning, could provide a valuable resource for the future development of AI chest radiography models. “We’ve found that there is a lot of subjectivity in chest X-ray…
