Chest X-rays (CXRs) are pivotal in clinical diagnostics, particularly in assessing cardiomegaly through the cardiothoracic ratio (CTR). This systematic review and meta-analysis evaluate the efficacy of artificial intelligence (AI) in automating CTR determination to enhance patient care and streamline diagnostic processes. They are concentrated on comparing the performance of AI models in determining the CTR against human assessments, identifying the most effective models for potential clinical implementation.

Medical mobile applications are widely used in many medical fields by both patients and doctors. However, there are still few approved mobile applications that can be used in the diagnostic-therapeutic process and radiological apps are affected as well.

ML involves the application of algorithms to automate decision-making processes using models that have not been manually programmed but have been trained on data. ANNs that are a part of ML aim to simulate the structure and function of the human brain.

This is due to the procedures in a given place, differences in the availability of mobile devices between individual institutions or lack of appropriate legal regulations and accreditation by relevant institutions. Numerous studies have been conducted and compared the usability of mobile solutions designed for diagnostic images evaluation on various mobile devices and applications with classic stationary descriptive stations.
