AI Accurately Identifies Normal and Abnormal Chest X-rays (IMAGE)
Caption
Images in a 44-year-old man who presented with chest pain and dyspnea. (A) Chest X-ray shows very subtle nodular opacities, primarily in lower lobes, representative of pneumonia and a discrete silhouette sign of the right cardiac border (arrow). The AI system interpreted this chest X-ray as normal. It was also interpreted as normal in the clinical radiology report. (B) CT scan shows the lower lobe airspace opacities with vague tree-in-bud morphology (box) and an area of consolidation (arrow). Pulmonary angiography was performed 5 hours after X-ray. This was the sole false-negative “critical” finding by the AI tool.
