AI tool identifies COVID-19 patients who need ventilators
Editor's Note
An artificial intelligence (AI) tool that analyzes CT scans of the chest was 75% accurate in determining COVID-19 patients who required ventilators, the April Radiology Business reports.
Researchers at Cleveland’s Case Western Reserve University built the tool using scans and datasets from the web, COVID-19 chest images from Wuhan, China, and other details such as symptoms, whether the patient had two chronic conditions or more, and other information.
The team is applying for funding from the Department of Veterans Affairs to further their research.
