The evaluation was performed on different chest X-ray datasets labeled with COVID-19 positive and negative diagnoses. Here, we extend this previous work by proposing and evaluating similar techniques but adapted to the few-shot learning paradigm with imbalanced data. In particular, we use a ...
Various studies in primary care and hospitalized patients have discouraged routine use of chest x-ray (CXR) in medical examination. Purpose: The study aims to determine the prevalence of abnormal routine CXR and cost of one CXR at a public health clinic and discuss the rationale of CXR in rou...
As such, cost-effectiveness and cost-utility analyses were performed to determine the benefits and costs of a chest x-ray screening and treatment programme for individuals with inactive pulmonary tuberculosis in South Africa. Comparing this intervention with usual care, the incremental cost per QALY ...
This study investigates the use of operational modelling to predict the impact of seven potential alternative approaches to triage (including no triage – base case), with or without X-ray and in combination with the Xpert diagnostic test. The projected outcomes were compared to a base case of ...
Chest X-Ray (CXR) is a low-cost, widely available, practical screening technique in the diagnosis of multiple pulmonary diseases, like pneumonia, which is among the top infectious causes of death for children around the world1. Recently, CXRs have been massively used for detecting and monitoring...
The FIGO scoring system uses chest X-ray (CXR) as standard to assess pulmonary metastases. In UK practice, pulmonary metastases are evaluated on CXR, with computed tomography (CT) only performed if there is an uncertainty over the presence of lesions on CXR.5 As previously acknowledged by the...

While microbiological tests are used to diagnose TB, chest X-ray (CXR) has long been employed for screening and assisting diagnosis, given its high sensitivity and cost-effectiveness. Prevalence surveys conducted in 33 high TB-burden African and Asian countries showed that 30–79% of people with...
Worldwide, pneumonia is the leading cause of infant mortality. Experienced radiologists use chest X-rays to diagnose pneumonia and other respiratory diseases. The diagnostic procedure's complexity causes radiologists to disagree with the decision. Early
