CT Scans Can Detect COVID-19 Using AI Algorithm: Research

According to a study published in Nature Communications, CT scan along with an Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithm can detect COVID-19. The study revealed that this method had an accuracy of 84% in positive cases and 93% in negative cases. The research asserted CT scans were better than the RT-PCR tests and can also be used to detect the disease in asymptomatic patients. The AI algorithm helps to differentiate between influenza and COVID-19.
