AI Algorithm Can Detect COVID-19 on Chest X-Rays – HealthDay
Accuracy of 82 percent achieved with DeepCOVID-XR compared with 81 percent for consensus of five thoracic radiologists

WEDNESDAY, Nov. 25, 2020 (HealthDay News) — An artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm can detect COVID-19 on chest X-rays with similar performance to that of a consensus of thoracic radiologists, according to a study published online Nov. 24 in Radiology.
Ramsey M. Wehbe, M.D., from the Bluhm Cardiovascular Institute at Northwestern Memorial Hospital in Chicago, and colleagues presented a deep learning AI algorithm (DeepCOVID-XR) for detecting COVID-19 on frontal chest X-rays. The algorithm was…
