Problem
Diagnosing multiple lung diseases (fibrosis, tuberculosis, pneumonia, COVID-19) from chest X-ray images quickly and accurately is difficult and requires expert radiologists.
Why it matters
Fast, accurate lung disease diagnosis affects treatment timing and patient survival.
What the AI did
A deep learning framework using a CNN with custom blocks to enhance feature maps was built to perform multi-class diagnosis of lung diseases from chest X-ray images.
Results

Impact
The evidence only supports that a framework was evaluated on a large dataset with claimed superior performance.
