NVIDIA Blogs: DeepTek Detects Tuberculosis From X-Rays

#artificialintelligence

Tuberculosis is an issue close to home for Pune, India-based healthcare startup DeepTek. India has the world's highest prevalence of the disease -- accounting for over one-quarter of the 10 million new cases each year. It's a fitting first project for the company, whose founders hope to greatly improve global access to medical imaging diagnostics with an AI-powered radiology platform. India aims to eradicate TB by 2025, five years before the United Nations' global goal to end the epidemic by 2030. Chest X-ray imaging is the most sensitive screening tool for pulmonary TB, helping clinicians determine which patients should be referred for further lab testing.
