Artificial intelligence Vs Radiologists
Pneumonia is still one of the major causes of child mortality in Pakistan. It is not because of the lack of machinery and equipment in Pakistan, but it's because there is a lack of health officers and doctors to accurately and quickly read and transcribe those X-rays and advise the patients. So I raised the question. Can artificial intelligence, especially convolutional neural networks (CNNs) , help radiologists detect pneumonia from chest X-rays more accurately and efficiently? In a short time span his question becomes my independent research project, where I can research and think out the possible ways in which I can transform how we think about radiology in an underdeveloped country like Pakistan. Why Pakistan specifically? You all will be inquisitive about it; that's why I specifically chose pneumonia for my research, which is because Pakistani children under 5 are more exposed to this disease in middle- or low-income families o...
