AI detection of mild COVID-19 pneumonia from chest CT scans

ConclusionsA deep learning model can accurately detect COVID-19 and serve as an important supplement to the COVID-19 reverse transcription –polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) test.Key Points• The implementation of a deep learning model to identify mild COVID-19 pneumonia was confirmed to be effective and feasible.• The strategy of using a binary code instead of the region of interest label to identify mild COVID-19 pneumonia was verified.• This AI model can assist in the early screening of COVID-19 without interfering with normal clinical examinations.
