About this study

Testing of AI solutions to assess diagnostic accuracy for tuberculosis detection.

Read the detailed description

Tuberculosis remains a key problem of modern medicine. New approaches for burden overcoming should be proposed. New screening strategies may include artificial intelligence (AI). An AI-based system for chest x-ray analysis and triage ("normal/tuberculosis suspected") have been developed and trained. A special data-set was prepared. There are 238 normal x-rays and 70 x-rays with lung tuberculosis in data-set. The data-set was randomly divided into 2 samples:

  • sample N1 (n=140) with ratio "normal: tuberculosis" 50:50,
  • sample N1 (n=150) with ratio "normal: tuberculosis" 95:5. Both samples will be analysed by AI-based system. Results will be quantified using diagnostic accuracy metrics: sensitivity and specificity, positive and negative predictor values, likelihood ratio, and area under the ROC (receiver operating characteristic) curve.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • AI-based x-ray analysis and triage ("normal/tuberculosis suspected")Diagnostic test

    Also called artificial intelligence analysis of medical images

    All included x-rays will be analysed by the AI-based system. Then results will be compared with opinions of 2 experienced radiologists (they make peer-review of all included images independently of each other).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Tuberculosis, Pulmonary, run by Research and Practical Clinical Center for Diagnostics and Telemedicine Technologies of the Moscow Health Care Department at 1 site in Russia.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Jun 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Russia. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Diagnostic accuracy metric 1 (time frame: Day 1 upon receipt of data). The study lists 6 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 5 Jun 2023; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 28 Oct 2026.
