A deep-learning based multimodal system for Covid-19 diagnosis using breathing sounds and chest X-ray images.

Covid-19 has become a deadly pandemic claiming more than three million lives worldwide. SARS-CoV-2 causes distinct pathomorphological alterations in the respiratory system, thereby acting as a biomarker to aid its diagnosis. A multimodal framework (Ai-CovScan) for Covid-19 detection using breathing sounds, chest X-ray (CXR) images, and rapid antigen test (RAnT) is proposed.
