Abstract

This paper presents a reproducible, data-driven approach for prioritisation of AI-detected chest X-ray (CXR) findings to support faster lung cancer diagnosis in the NHS. The Annalise Enterprise CXR system was deployed in shadow mode across seven acute trusts in Greater Manchester. Two cohorts were used: a retrospective cancer cohort (n = 1,282) with confirmed lung cancer and visible CXR abnormalit…
