AI X-ray screening tool is twice as effective at discovering lung cancer as doctors - Daily Mail
In a real-world setting, machine learning-based software significantly boosted the identification of lung nodules on chest X-rays.
On the left, the scan looked at by doctors is shown with an arrow pointing to the lung nodule diagnosed as cancer.For the study, researchers included 10,476 patients, who underwent chest X-rays at a screening center between June 2020 and December 2021.Dr Goo said: 'As our trial was conducted with a pragmatic approach, almost all enrolled participants were included, which is a real clinical setting.'Dr Goo said: 'Our study provided strong evidence that AI could really help in interpreting chest radiography.The results, published in Radiology, also suggested AI works consistently across different populations - even for those with diseased or postoperative lungs.
