X-rays can help doctors identify TB infections. They look for specific characteristics in these images to make a diagnosis. TB is an infectious disease that primarily affects the lungs, although it ...

Research on medical uses for artificial intelligence in medicine is exploding, with scientists exploring methods like using the retina to predict disease onset. That’s one example of a growing body of ...

OAK BROOK, Ill. – An artificial intelligence (AI) tool can accurately identify normal and abnormal chest X-rays in a clinical setting, according to a study published in Radiology, a journal of the ...

OAK BROOK, Ill. – In a study of more than 2,000 chest X-rays, radiologists outperformed AI in accurately identifying the presence and absence of three common lung diseases, according to a study ...

It’s 1984 and the patient, undergoing an annual physical, has had weight and vital signs documented. The doctor is now conducting a physical assessment that includes checking ears, eyes, mouth, ...

Researchers in Japan created an AI that can detect fatty liver disease from ordinary chest X-rays—an unexpected and low-cost method that could transform early diagnosis. The model proved highly ...

Can artificial intelligence, or AI, potentially transform health care for the better? Now, rising to the challenge, an Arizona State University team of researchers has built a powerful new AI tool, ...
