Abstract Background and Objective: The novel coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) is a harmful lung disease that rapidly attacks people worldwide. At the end of 2019, COVID-19 was discovered as mysterious lung disease in Wuhan, Hubei province of China. World health organization (WHO) declared the coronavirus outbreak a pandemic in the second week of March 2020. Simultaneous deep learning detection and classification of COVID-19 from the entire digital X-ray images is the key to efficiently assist patients and physicians for a fast and accurate diagnosis.Methods: In this paper, a deep learning computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) based on the YOLO predictor is proposed to simultaneously detect and diagnose COVID-19 among the other eight lung diseases: Atelectasis, Infiltration, Pneumothorax, Mass, Effusion, Pneumonia, Cardiomegaly, and Nodule. The proposed CAD system is assessed via five-fold tests for multi-class prediction problem using two different databases of chest X-ray images: COVID-19 and ChestX-ray8. The proposed CAD system is trained using an annotated training set of 50,490 chest X-ray images.Results: The suspicious regions of COVID-19 from the entire X-ray images are simultaneously detected and classified end-to-end via the proposed CAD predictor achieving overall detection and classification accuracies of 96.31% and 97.40%, respectively. The most testing images of COVID-19 and other lunge diseases are correctly predicted achieving intersection over union (IoU) with their GTs greater than 90%. Applying deep learning regularizers of data balancing and augmentation improve the diagnostic performance by 6.64% and 12.17% in terms of overall accuracy and F1-score, respectively. Meanwhile, the proposed CAD system presents its feasibility to diagnose the individual chest X-ray image within 0.009 second. Thus, the presented CAD system could predict 108 frames/second (FPS) at the real-time of prediction.Conclusion: The proposed deep learning CAD system shows its capability and reliability to achieve promising COVID-19 diagnostic performance among all other lung diseases. The proposed deep learning model seems reliable to assist health care systems, patients, and physicians in their practical validations.

Chest X-ray images can be used to detect lung diseases such as COVID-19, viral pneumonia, and tuberculosis (TB). These diseases have similar patterns and diagnoses, making it difficult for clinicians and radiologists to differentiate between them. This paper uses convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to diagnose lung disease using chest X-ray images obtained from online sources. The classification task is separated into three and four classes, with COVID-19, normal, TB, and viral pneumonia, while the three-class problem excludes the normal lung. During testing, AlexNet and ResNet-18 gave promising results, scoring more than 95% accuracy.

AbstractCardiac accessory pathways (APs) in Wolff–Parkinson–White (WPW) syndrome are conventionally diagnosed with decision tree algorithms; however, there are problems with clinical usage. We assessed the efficacy of the artificial intelligence model using electrocardiography (ECG) and chest X-rays to identify the location of APs. We retrospectively used ECG and chest X-rays to analyse 206 patients with WPW syndrome. Each AP location was defined by an electrophysiological study and divided into four classifications. We developed a deep learning model to classify AP locations and compared the accuracy with that of conventional algorithms. Moreover, 1519 chest X-ray samples from other datasets were used for prior learning, and the combined chest X-ray image and ECG data were put into the previous model to evaluate whether the accuracy improved. The convolutional neural network (CNN) model using ECG data was significantly more accurate than the conventional tree algorithm. In the multimodal model, which implemented input from the combined ECG and chest X-ray data, the accuracy was significantly improved. Deep learning with a combination of ECG and chest X-ray data could effectively identify the AP location, which may be a novel deep learning model for a multimodal model.
