"Economic analysis of different throughput scenarios and implementation strategies of computer-aided detection software as a screening and triage test for pulmonary TB".

The recent study in Pakistan (S. Bashir. et al) shows that CAD4TB is the most economical CAD software for offline deployment.

Mainstreaming chest X-ray (CXR) screening with either artificial intelligence (AI) -powered computer aided detection (CAD) or human readers for intensified tuberculosis case finding (ICF) is a promising solution to some of the key limitations of the current ICF strategy in the Philippines, which relies on symptom-based screening as the primary screening tool. Shifting to CXR screening as the primary screening tool and expanding the capacity for ICF can help reduce delayed or missed tuberculosis (TB) case detection due to prolonged turnaround time (TAT).

Clinical publications

Assessment of non-tuberculosis abnormalities on digital chest x-rays with high CAD4TB scores from a tuberculosis prevalence survey in Zambia and South Africa

Comparing different versions of computer-aided detection products when reading chest X-rays for tuberculosis. CAD4TB v7 had a significantly higher AUC than v6, 0.903 (95% CI: 0.897–0.908) compared to 0.823 (0.816–0.830). CAD4TB v7 significantly improved on its predecessor’s specificity, outperforming human radiologists with specificity and meeting WHO TPP values.

New article following up on the WHO’s recommendation on using AI-powered CAD software for TB screening & triage. The study compares CAD4TB ver. 6 and 7, and concludes that CAD4TB 7 significantly outperformed CAD4TB 6, performed better than human readers and met WHO TPP values. Additionally, CAD4TB 7 shows a steep initial increase of Xpert tests saving and suggests greater numbers of Xpert tests to be saved.
