Deep Learning Model Accurately Predicts Mortality in Pneumonia Patients

July 6, 2023 - The American Journal for Roentgenology published original medical research last month that described how an artificial intelligence tool accurately predicted the severity of community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) and estimated the 30-day mortality in patients better than traditional methods. Researchers from Seoul National University in South Korea...
