AI model shows promise for interpreting follow-up chest x-rays
By Will Morton
A group in Seoul, South Korea, has developed an AI model that could help reduce radiology workflows by identifying “no changes” in follow-up chest x‑rays.
October 24, 2023
Example of triage of no change in a pair of chest radiographs in the emergency department. (A) Baseline posteroanterior chest radiograph in a 63-year-old female patient shows a small amount of left (L) pleural effusion and partial atelectasis of the right middle lobe. (B) Follow-up posteroanterior chest radiograph obtained in the same patient 1 day later shows no significant change. (C) Gradient-weighted class activation map shows the algorithm determined no change in the image pair, without relevant highlighting, as the highlighted area is located over the gastroesophageal junction.
