Abstract

Pneumonia is a respiratory disease which inflames one or both lungs, and lungs may fill up with fluid. This can cause fever, chills, cough with phlegm or pus. It is a harmful disease that can be fatal in some cases. It is critical to detect pneumonia early, with a model which could help doctors reduce workload and bring in more accuracy in detection of pneumonia.

In this work, we propose a model which is designed for the diagnosis of pneumonia that is trained on digital chest X-ray images to accurately diagnose pneumonic lungs. In the author’s opinion, this could benefit the medical field in the near future.
