Automated Pulmonary Tuberculosis Severity Assessment on Chest X-rays
AbstractAccording to the 2022 World Health Organization's Global Tuberculosis (TB) report, an estimated 10.6 million people fell ill with TB, and 1.6 million died from the disease in 2021. In addition, 2021 saw a reversal of a decades-long trend of declining TB infections and deaths, with an estimated increase of 4.5% in the number of people who fell ill with TB compared to 2020, and an estimated yearly increase of 450,000 ca ses of drug resistant TB. Estimating the severity of pulmonary TB using frontal chest X-rays (CXR) can enable better resource allocation in resource constrained settings and monitoring of treatm...

Effectiveness of Histopathological Examination of Ultrasound-guided Puncture Biopsy Samples for Diagnosis of Extrapulmonary Tuberculosis
CONCLUSION: Ultrasound-guided puncture sampling is safe and effective for the diagnosis of EPTB. Compared with culture, smear, and Xpert, histopathological examination showed higher sensitivity but lower specificity. The combination of histopathology with Xpert showed the best performance characteristics.PMID:38582979 | DOI:10.3967/bes2024.017 (Source: Biomedical and Environmental Sciences : BES)
