We aimed to develop a deep-learning algorithm detecting 10 common abnormalities (DLAD-10) on chest radiographs and to evaluate its impact in diagnostic accuracy, timeliness of reporting, and workflow efficacy.DLAD-10 was trained with 146 717 radiographs from 108 053 patients using a ResNet34-based neural network with lesion-specific channels for 10 common radiologic abnormalities (pneumothorax, mediastinal widening, pneumoperitoneum, nodule/mass, consolidation, pleural effusion, linear atelectasis, fibrosis, calcification, and cardiomegaly). For external validation, the performance of DLAD-10 on a same-day CT-confirmed dataset (normal:abnormal, 53:147) and an open-source dataset (PadChest; normal:abnormal, 339:334) was compared to that of three radiologists. Separate simulated reading tests were conducted on another dataset adjusted to real-world disease prevalence in the emergency department, consisting of four critical, 52 urgent, and 146 non-urgent cases. Six radiologists participated in the simulated reading sessions with and without DLAD-10.DLAD-10 exhibited areas under the receiver-operating characteristic curves (AUROCs) of 0.895–1.00 in the CT-confirmed dataset and 0.913–0.997 in the PadChest dataset. DLAD-10 correctly classified significantly more critical abnormalities (95.0% [57/60]) than pooled radiologists (84.4% [152/180]; p=0.01). In simulated reading tests for emergency department patients, pooled readers detected significantly more critical (70.8% [17/24] versus 29.2% [7/24]; p=0.006) and urgent (82.7% [258/312] versus 78.2% [244/312]; p=0.04) abnormalities when aided by DLAD-10. DLAD-10 assistance shortened the mean time-to-report critical and urgent radiographs (640.5±466.3 versus 3371.0±1352.5 s and 1840.3±1141.1 versus 2127.1±1468.2, respectively; p-values<0.01) and reduced the mean interpretation time (20.5±22.8 versus 23.5±23.7 s; p<0.001).DLAD-10 showed excellent performance, improving radiologists' performance and shortening the reporting time for critical and urgent cases.

BACKGROUND Accurately predicting refractive error in children is crucial for detecting amblyopia, which can lead to permanent visual impairment, but is potentially curable if detected early. Various tools have been adopted to more easily screen a larger number of patients for amblyopia risk. OBJECTIVE For efficient screening, easy access to screening tools and an accurate prediction algorithm are the most important factors. In this study, we developed an automated deep-learning-based system to predict the range of refractive error in children (mean age: 4.32±1.87 years) using 305 eccentric photorefraction images captured with a smartphone. METHODS Photorefraction images were divided into seven classes according to their spherical values as measured by cycloplegic refraction. RESULTS The trained deep-learning models resulted in an overall accuracy of 81.6%, with the following accuracy for each refractive error class: 80.0% in ≤ -5.0 diopters (D), 77.8% in > -5.0 D and ≤ -3.0 D, 82.0% in > -3.0 D and ≤ -0.5 D, 83.3% in > -0.5 D and < +0.5 D, 82.8% in ≥ +0.5 D and < +3.0 D, 79.3% in ≥ +3.0 D and < +5.0 D, and 75.0% in ≥ +5.0 D. These results indicate that our deep-learning-based system performed sufficiently accurately. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrated the potential for precise smartphone-based prediction systems for refractive error using deep learning and, further, yielded a robust collection of pediatric photorefraction images.
