New experiment: Now X-rays will tell if Corona is there or not, 98 percent accurate results were found

- New technology uses X-ray technology for a database of more than 3,000 images compared to scans

New delhi date. Thursday, January 20, 2022

A group of scientists in Scotland has conducted a new experiment on the Corona epidemic. From now on, it will be possible to know whether the patient has corona or not by using X-rays. So much so that scientists have found it to be 98 percent accurate. Testing uses Artificial Intelligence (AI) to detect the presence of a virus inside a person.

Results in 5 to 10 minutes

The researchers also said that it will be faster than the RT-PCR test and the result will come in 5 to 10 minutes. The RT-PCR report takes more than an hour to arrive. The researchers said that for a long time there was a need for a quick and reliable device that could identify the Covid-19. Not only this, with the help of X-ray the Omicron variant can be identified very quickly.

How does the test work?

The new technology uses X-ray technology for a database of more than 3,000 images compared to scans related to corona patients, healthy individuals and viral pneumonia, according to UWS researchers.

Use of Artificial Intelligence

This technique uses artificial intelligence (AI) processes that use an algorithm to analyze and diagnose visual assessment. The technology proved to be more than 98 percent accurate during a comprehensive testing phase, UWS scientists said.

New testing technology could prove life-saving

Professor Ramzan said many countries are unable to test a large number of covids due to limited diagnostic devices. But because of this research, the virus can be identified quickly. It can be important and potentially life-saving during the diagnosis of a serious case of the virus. However, he acknowledged that the X-ray did not show signs of Covid-19 during the early stages of the transition, so it could not fully replace PCR tests.
