Cardiovascular diseases are among the major health problems that are likely to benefit from promising developments in quantum machine learning for medical imaging. The chest X-ray (CXR), a widely used modality, can reveal cardiomegaly, even when performed primarily for a non-cardiological indication. Based on pre-trained DenseNet-121, we designed hybrid classical-quantum (CQ) transfer learning models to detect cardiomegaly in CXRs.
