Care Plan for Community-Acquired Pneumonia
Canadian Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2000 This paper presents a critical pathway for the treatment of pneumonia that has been shown to be effective in a randomized clinical trial. The pathway uses a pneumonia-specific severity of illness score to guide the admission decision.

CXR-Net: An Encoder-Decoder-Encoder Multitask Deep Neural Network for Explainable and Accurate Diagnosis of COVID-19 pneumonia with Chest X-ray Images [PDF]
, 2021 Accurate and rapid detection of COVID-19 pneumonia is crucial for optimal patient treatment. Chest X-Ray (CXR) is the first line imaging test for COVID-19 pneumonia diagnosis as it is fast, cheap and easily accessible. Inspired by the success of deep learning (DL) in computer vision, many DL-models have been proposed to detect COVID-19 pneumonia using ...
