Key points

  • Deep learning model accurately detects COVID-19 on CT scans.
  • Model differentiates COVID-19 from community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) and other lung conditions.
  • Achieved 87% sensitivity and 92% specificity for CAP detection in an independent test set.
  • Overall diagnostic accuracy (AUC) was 0.95.

Abstract

< .001). The per-scan sensitivity and specificity for detecting CAP in the independent test set was 87% (152 of 175 scans) and 92% (239 of 259 scans), respectively, with an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.95 (95% CI: 0.93, 0.97). Conclusion A deep learning model can accurately detect coronavirus 2019 and differentiate it from community-acquired pneumonia and other lung conditions. © RSNA, 2020
