Summary

A current problem in Radiology Departments is the constant increase in the number of studies performed. Currently the largest volume of studies belongs to plain x-rays. This problem is intensified by the shortage of specialists with dedication and experience in their interpretation. In the field of computer science, an area of study called Artificial Intelligence (AI) has emerged, which consists of a computer system that learns to perform specific routine tasks, and can complement or imitate human work. Since 2018, Hospital Italiano de Buenos Aires has been running the TRx program, which consists of the development of an AI-based tool to detect pathological findings in chest x-rays. The intended use of this tool is to assist non-imaging physicians in the diagnosis of chest x-rays by automatically detecting radiological findings. The present multicenter study seeks to externally validate the performance of an AI tool (TRx v1) as a diagnostic assistance tool for chest x-rays.
