Data
404 patients included in the study (74.5% of exams didn’t have any of the ChestView abnormalities)
- 295 had only CXRs
- 109 had CXRs + subsequent CT exam
Design
Retrospective single-center study
3 emergency physicians, 1 junior radiologist and 1 general radiologist independently reviewed the CXRs (with available clinical information)
Without AI → Washout ≥ 2 weeks → With AI
Ground truth = consensus between 2 experienced radiologists (with all available clinical and imaging information)
Results
Standalone performance [see study]
Readers
- DL-assisted reading had a significantly higher combined sensitivity compared to unassisted reading
- No significant change in the combined specificity between unassisted and assisted readings
- Most important increase in sensitivity with DL assistance was obtained for nodules (38.1% → 67.6%)
- Combined sensitivity was higher for bedside CXRs while the specificity and accuracy were significantly lower
