RESUMEN
A chronic respiratory disease known as pneumonia can be devastating if it is not identified and treated in a timely manner. For successful treatment and better patient outcomes, pneumonia must be identified early and properly classified. Deep learning has recently demonstrated considerable promise in the area of medical imaging and has successfully applied for a few image-based diagnosis tasks, including the identification and classification of pneumonia. Pneumonia is a respiratory illness that produces pleural effusion (a condition in which fluids flood the lungs). COVID-19 is becoming the major cause of the global rise in pneumonia cases. Early detection of this disease provides curative therapy and increases the likelihood of survival. CXR (Chest X-ray) imaging is a common method of detecting and diagnosing pneumonia. Examining chest X-rays is a difficult undertaking that often results in variances and inaccuracies. In this study, we created an automatic pneumonia diagnosis method, also known as a CAD (Computer-Aided Diagnosis), which may significantly reduce the time and cost of collecting CXR imaging data. This paper uses deep learning which has the potential to revolutionize in the area of medical imaging and has shown promising results in the detection and classification of pneumonia. Further research and development in this area is needed to improve the accuracy and reliability of these models and make them more accessible to healthcare providers. These models can provide fast and accurate results, with high sensitivity and specificity in identifying pneumonia in chest X-rays. © 2023 IEEE.
