Chest x-ray (CXR) analysis is a common part of the protocol for confirming active pulmonary Tuberculosis (TB). However, many TB endemic regions are severely resource constrained in radiological services impairing timely detection and treatment. Computer-aided diagnosis (CADx) tools can supplement decision-making while simultaneously addressing gap expert interpretation during mobile field screening. These use hand-engineered and/or convolutional neural networks (CNN) computed image features....

The view information of a chest X-ray (CXR), such as frontal or lateral, is valuable in computer aided diagnosis (CAD) CXRs. For example, it helps for the selection atlas models automatic lung segmentation. However, very often, image header does not provide information. In this paper, we present new method classifying CXR into two categories: vs. lateral view. consists three major components: pre-processing, feature extraction, and classification. features selected are profile, body size...

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), tuberculosis (TB) remains most deadly infectious disease in world. In a 2015 global annual TB report, 1.5 million related deaths were reported. The conditions worsened 2016 with 1.7 reported and more than 10 people infected disease. Analysis of frontal chest X-rays (CXR) is one popular methods for initial screening, however, method impacted by lack experts screening radiographs. Computer-aided diagnosis (CADx) tools have gained significance...
