Abstract

There is an increasing risk on health due to changing environment, climate and lifestyle. India tops the world in deaths due to lung diseases. They were the second highest cause of deaths in India after heart disease in 2017, killing 1 million (958,000) Indians that year. Early diagnosis and treatment of lung diseases is critical to prevent complications including death. Chest X-ray is currently the best available method for diagnosis, playing a crucial role in clinical care. Using Deep Learning to predict lung diseases from Chest Xrays can be a lifesaving factor for an individual suffering from the disease. This is possible as the results can be predicted with a high percentage of accuracy instantly. This paper presents an effective way for expert diagnosis of lung diseases using Deep Learning. It focuses on creating a system for assistance of Radiologists in detection of lung diseases. This will especially benefit rural areas where radiologists aren’t easily available. Our system connects radiology labs with the radiologists who can diagnose faster and better with our model.
