Results of scan level analysis of radiologists and AI system.
AI system | Radiologists | p-value | |
---|---|---|---|
Per scan sensitivity*,%(95% CI) | 89.1 (41/46)(75.6–95.9) | 84.8 (39/46)(70.5–93.2) | 0.727 |
Per scan specificity**,%(95% CI) | 85.7 (36/42)(70.8–94.1) | 83.3 (35/42)(68.0–92.5) | 1.000 |
Per scan accuracy***,%(95% CI) | 87.5 (77/88)(78.8–93.0) | 84.1 (74/88)(74.9–90.4) | 0.804 |
AUC | 0.934 | n/a | n/a |
Note: The p-values are calculated by comparing the AI system with radiologists using a 2-sided McNemar test. *Per scan sensitivity is the ratio of true positive identified to all CT scans with COVID-19 lesions; **Per scan specificity is the ratio of true negative identified to all CT scans without COVID-19 lesions; ***Per patient accuracy is the ratio of all true values identified to all CT scans. AI: artificial intelligence; CI: confidence interval; AUC: area under the receiver operating characteristic curve. n/a: not applicable.
