Researchers Use AI to Triage Patients with Chest Pain (IMAGE)
Caption
Gradient-weighted class activation maps of representative chest radiographs in (A) an 85-year-old man with acute coronary syndrome (ACS), (B) a 77-year-old man with aortic dissection (AD), (C) a 39-year-old healthy man, and (D) a 27-year-old healthy woman. The maps show which parts of the images influenced deep learning (DL) model predictions for the composite outcome. The color gradient shows the level of activation from that given area, where red indicates the highest activation, blue indicates the lowest activation, and no color indicates no activation. Areas of the heart and lungs contributed most model predictions. Fine-tuning improved the diagnostic accuracy of our DL model and resulted in more relevant areas contributing to predictions. ACS = acute coronary syndrome, CTA = coronary CT angiography, ICA = invasive coronary angiography, SPECT = single-photon emission CT.
