#AI and advanced scans could potentially spot #tuberculosis years before symptoms appear 🫁🩻 New research shows early warning signs in the lungs – opening the door to earlier treatment. www.imperial.ac.uk/news/article... #TB #GlobalHealth @imperialinfect.bsky.social

PET-CT scans and AI-read X-Rays show potential to predict tuberculosis diagnosis over 5 years
Advanced imaging technologies can detect evidence of asymptomatic tuberculosis in the lungs years before symptoms or routine tests can.
