Using AI to find TB cases from chest X-rays
Part of Infections clinical trials.
This study tests if a computer program that reads chest X-rays can help doctors find tuberculosis (TB) cases more effectively in community health clinics. If you have a cough or other breathing symptoms and are getting a chest X-ray, you may be able to join.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are over 15 years old.
- You have TB-like symptoms such as a cough, fever, or night sweats.
- You have not been diagnosed with active TB before.
- You are able to do further lab tests, like sputum testing.
- Your chest X-ray image is clear enough for the computer to analyze.
- Your identity can be confirmed.

This research uses artificial intelligence to better understand who responds well to tuberculosis treatment and who may need extra support. Researchers will study TB patients' medical records and treatment outcomes to help doctors predict and improve treatment success.
This study tests whether using a portable chest X-ray can help quickly find tuberculosis (TB) in people who recently moved to the United States. By offering this simple screening, the trial aims to catch TB early so it can be treated and prevent its spread.
This trial tests if a shorter treatment course works as well as the standard one for people whose chest X-rays suggest TB but whose sputum tests are negative. It aims to make treatment easier for patients.
This study tests a way to find TB earlier by using chest X-rays read by artificial intelligence. If you are at least 10 years old and live in a community where TB is more common, this trial may help you get tested and diagnosed quickly.
This trial tests an X-ray diagnostic system for people with suspected chest diseases like pneumonia, tuberculosis, or lung cancer. It may help provide clearer and more accurate diagnoses.
This trial uses artificial intelligence (AI) to help doctors read X-rays or CT scans of people with respiratory infections. The goal is to see if AI can make diagnosis faster and more accurate.
