Detailed Description
Tuberculosis remains a key problem of modern medicine. New approaches for burden overcoming should be proposed. New screening strategies may include artificial intelligence (AI). An AI-based system for chest x-ray analysis and triage ("normal/tuberculosis suspected") have been developed and trained. A special data-set was prepared. There are 238 normal x-rays and 70 x-rays with lung tuberculosis in data-set. The data-set was randomly divided into 2 samples:
-
sample N1 (n=140) with ratio "normal: tuberculosis" 50:50,
-
sample N1 (n=150) with ratio "normal: tuberculosis" 95:5. Both samples will be analysed by AI-based system. Results will be quantified using diagnostic accuracy metrics: sensitivity and specificity, positive and negative predictor values, likelihood ratio, and area under the ROC (receiver operating characteristic) curve.

Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
Sample N1 (n=140) with ratio "normal: tuberculosis" 50:50 |
Diagnostic Test: AI-based x-ray analysis and triage ("normal/tuberculosis suspected")
All included x-rays will be analysed by the AI-based system. Then results will be compared with opinions of 2 experienced radiologists (they make peer-review of all included images independently of each other).
