X-ray Assisted Diagnostic System

X-ray examination is one of the most commonly used imaging modalities, especially chest X-ray, which is routinely performed for hospitalized patients. However, due to the low density resolution of X-ray images, radiologists' ability to diagnose diseases-particularly small lesions-is often affected. Studies have shown that the diagnostic accuracy of radiologists using chest X-rays is only around 70%, which does not meet clinical demands.

Based on this, we developed an artificial intelligence model to assist radiologists in interpreting X-ray images and generating reports, with the aim of improving diagnostic accuracy and reducing interpretation time.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: Yes

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Clinically suspected thoracic diseases (such as pneumonia, tuberculosis, or lung cancer) requiring X-ray diagnosis;
  • Patients providing written informed consent for research data use;
  • Complete clinical records (including chief complaints, medical history, and laboratory test results)

Exclusion criteria

  • Substandard X-ray image quality (including severe motion artifacts, over-/underexposure, or missing anatomical structures)
  • Pregnant or lactating women

Treatment and study plan

AI-assisted radiologist diagnostic group

Diagnostic Test

Based on the previously developed X-ray image diagnosis and report generation model, radiologists are assisted in interpreting X-ray images and generating reports.

Radiologist diagnostic group

Diagnostic Test

After the patient undergoes an X-ray examination, a radiologist generates the report and makes the diagnosis.

Primary outcomes

  1. Area Under the Curve

    Time frame: From enrollment to the end of X-ray image acquisition at 1 week

    The primary outcome was the AUC to evaluate diagnostic performance, comparing radiologists with and without AI assistance.

Secondary outcomes

  1. X-ray report generation time

    Time frame: From enrollment to the end of X-ray image acquisition at 1 week

    X-ray report generation time refers to the amount of time required to produce a diagnostic report after an X-ray examination has been performed. It typically measures the interval from when the X-ray images are acquired to when the radiologist (with or without AI assistance) completes and finalizes the report.

Other outcomes

  1. Radiologist score

    Time frame: From enrollment to the end of X-ray image acquisition at 4 weeks

    Radiologist score refers to the evaluation or rating assigned by senior radiologists based on imaging findings generated by AI or AI+radiologist.
