AI can help stratify COVID-19 risk on lung ultrasound
By Erik L. Ridley
Deep-learning algorithms can be used to automatically provide risk scores on lung ultrasound exams in COVID-19 patients, researchers from Italy reported in an article published online on 27 May in the Journal of the Acoustical Society of America.

Left: Examples of lung ultrasound images corresponding to score 3 (top), score 0 (middle), and score 2 (bottom). Right: the corresponding semantic segmentations obtained with the described deep-learning algorithms. Color maps are informative of the score level (red for score 3, blue for score 0, orange for score 2), as well as indicate the relevant part of the image that determines the score. These maps explain the decision progress of the algorithms. Images and caption courtesy of Libertario Demi, PhD.
