A new AI-driven platform called ‘XraySetu’ has been developed to help in the early detection of COVID 19, with the help of Chest X-ray.
The solution will be beneficial for early detection especially in rural areas,
In rural areas, RT-PCR tests and CT-Scans are not easily available.
XraySetu will operate through WhatsApp.
It will identify COVID positive patients even from low-resolution Chest X-Ray images sent over Whatsapp-based Chatbot.
The solution has been developed by ARTPARK (AI & Robotics Technology Park), established by the Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bengaluru, with support from the Department of Science & Technology (DST), in collaboration with Bangalore based HealthTech startup Niramai and the Indian Institute of Science (IISc).
