Pneumonia prediction using X-ray Report

[Gaurav-576]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. The feature request is related to the need for an automated and accurate method to detect pneumonia in chest X-ray images. The current manual process of diagnosing pneumonia through X-ray analysis is time-consuming and prone to human error. This can lead to delayed diagnoses and treatments, which is particularly critical in severe cases.

Describe the solution you'd like I would like to develop a deep learning model that can automatically detect pneumonia from chest X-ray images. This model would be build using Tensorflow deep learning Sequential API that allows healthcare professionals to upload X-ray images and receive immediate diagnostic feedback. The solution should include a confidence score for each prediction and the ability to visualize the areas of the X-ray image that the model focuses on when making its diagnosis.

Describe alternatives you've considered

• Using Transfer learning techniques such as YOLO and OpenCV for precise and accurate detection of defective X_rays for proper detection of disease among patients.x
• Developing a simpler rule-based algorithm for pneumonia detection, which may not be as accurate as a deep learning model.
• Using traditional machine learning techniques like SVMs or decision trees, which may not capture the complexities of medical image data as effectively as deep learning.

Additional context This feature aims to leverage the power of AI to improve diagnostic accuracy and speed in healthcare, particularly in the context of pneumonia detection. Integrating this into existing healthcare systems could significantly enhance patient care and outcomes. The solution should be trained on a comprehensive dataset of labeled X-ray images to ensure its robustness and reliability.

What problem is this feature trying to solve? This feature is trying to solve the problem of delayed and potentially inaccurate diagnosis of pneumonia from chest X-rays. By automating the detection process, we aim to reduce the workload on radiologists, minimize human error, and ensure timely and accurate diagnosis, which is critical for effective treatment.

How do we know when the feature is complete? The feature is complete when:

• The deep learning model achieves a high accuracy rate on a validation dataset, ideally above 90%.
• The application can process and analyze X-ray images in real-time, providing immediate diagnostic feedback.
• The system is capable of visualizing the model's focus areas on the X-ray images to aid in interpretability.
• User testing with healthcare professionals indicates that the tool is intuitive and significantly aids in their diagnostic process.
• The model's predictions are consistent and reliable when tested with new, unseen X-ray images.
