Deep Learning in Diagnosis of Maxillary Sinusitis Using Conventional Radiography.
The aim of this study was to compare the diagnostic performance of a deep learning algorithm with that of radiologists in diagnosing maxillary sinusitis on Waters' view radiographs. ⋯ The deep learning algorithm could diagnose maxillary sinusitis on Waters' view radiograph with superior AUC and comparable sensitivity and specificity to those of radiologists.
