Abstract
Since the first quarter of this year, the spread of SARS-CoV-19 virus has been a worldwide health priority. Medical testing consists of Lab studies, PCR tests, CT, PET, which are time-consuming, some countries lack these resources. One medical tool for diagnosis is X-Ray imaging, which is one of the fastest and low-cost resources for physicians to detect and to distinguish among these different diseases. We propose an X-Ray CAD system based on DCNN, using well-known architectures such as DenseNet-201, ResNet-50 and EfficientNet. These architectures are pre-trained on data from Imagenet classification challenge, moreover, using Transfer Learning methods to Fine-Tune the classification stage. The system is capable to visualize the learned recognition patterns applying the GRAD-CAM algorithm aiming to help physicians in seeking hidden features from perceptual vision. The proposed CAD can differentiate between COVID-19, Pneumonia, Nodules and Normal lung X-Ray images.
