Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The aim of the study is to asses the influence of computer aided diagnostic to the process of lung affection quantification on computer tomography in COVID-19 confirmed patients.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Diagnostic Test: CAD analysis
N/A

Detailed Description

The lung involvement of COVID-19 patients has been showed to be correlated to clinical outcomes and became part of the clinical practice. Even though various scores can be used, the affection estimation is usually done on computer tomography, using radiologists's estimation skills which is a highly subjective process.

Artificial intelligence is a known objective constant and therefore a potential radiologist complement. This trial aims at studying the effect of using a computer aided diagnostic software integrated in the normal clinical practice of radiologists from Timisoara County Emergency Hospital. It uses the AI-PROBE analysis setup, which turns off the CAD outputs for randomly chosen 50% the cases (control) and then compares the radiological reports for differences between the two arms.

Study Design

Study Type:
Interventional
Actual Enrollment :
200 participants
Allocation:
Randomized
Intervention Model:
Parallel Assignment
Intervention Model Description:
CAD outputs are turned off for randomly chosen 50% of patients, which represent the control group. The other 50% are analysed using CADCAD outputs are turned off for randomly chosen 50% of patients, which represent the control group. The other 50% are analysed using CAD
Masking:
Single (Participant)
Masking Description:
The random assignment is done automatically by the CAD system and is not visible to the patient. The radiologist obviously sees which cases have CAD analysis and which not.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: CAD analysis

The XVision COVID-19 computer aided diagnostic software is used by radiologist at CT analysis time

Diagnostic Test: CAD analysis
CAD shows the radiologist automatically delineated areas of potential COVID-19 affection, together with an overall lung affection percentage.

No Intervention: No CAD analysis

No CAD analysis is shown to radiologist.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Mean difference of lung affection quantification percentage [At CT acquisition time, up to 2 weeks]

    The objective measurement of lung affection percentage is measured against pixel level labels. A lower difference mean better outcome.
