This highly illustrated guide provides the ideal introduction to chest radiology. It uses 100 clinical cases to illuminate a wide range of common medical conditions, each illustrated with a chest X-ray and a clear description of the significant diagnostic features and their clinical relevance. Where...
Interpreting CXR, a systematic overview Draft – Sept 2000 DasonJust as in every other clinical skill, a systematic approach will give you confidence and ensure that you spot abnormalities – not just the most obvious one.X-ray may be put on the viewing box wrong way roundX-ray may be ...
A chest x-ray is often requested to rule out pneumonia. We assessed inter-observer agreement in interpreting x-rays on such children. A prospective consecutive case study was used at Instituto de Salud del Nino Lima Peru. Chest x-rays were obtained from eligible children younger than two ...
However, lack of qualified human resources represents a common limiting factor in many high TB-burden countries. Artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged as a powerful complement in many facets of life, including for the interpretation of chest X-ray images. However, while AI may serve as a ...
Our main goal was to pilot models for itnernal quality control, but as a sanity check, we also evaluated on our model existing openly-available chest x-ray datasets, including the Shenzhen and Montgomery County TB datasets, made available by the National Library of Medicine, and the NIH chest...
An artificial intelligence (AI) tool for interpreting chest radiographs produces reports that are not significantly different from those of radiologists, according to a study published online Oct. 5 in JAMA Network Open.
This proportion is identifiable from the incremental cost-effectiveness plane as the proportion of incremental cost-effect pairs lying to the south and east of a ray through the origin with a slope equivalent to the x-axis (i.e., λ = 0). This is repeated for larger and larger λ s ...

The present laboratory tests are time-consuming and a lack of availability of kits delay the diagnosis. The respiratory system is the part of the human body stricken the most by the pathogen and thus use of X-ray images of the chest appears to be a more methodical way than the ongoing ...
