TITLE AI-Based Medical Image Disease Detection System
ABSTRACT Medical imaging plays a vital part in disease diagnosis, but interpreting chest X-ray images accurately and on time remains difficult due to the shortage of skilled radiologists in many areas. This study proposes an AI-based medical imaging system capable of automatically detect multiple diseases, including cardiomegaly (CMVD), cardiac conditions, and rickets, chest x-ray. The system uses deep-learning model built on DenseNet121, applying transfer learning to improve the effectiveness of feature extraction and classification. To produce the predictions more understandable and trustworthy, the model incorporates Grad-CAM, which visually highlights the important regions in the X-ray that influence the decision. The answer is used as a Flask-based online application that enables people to submit pictures and get instant diagnostic results. Experimental results indicate that the system is capable of effectively identify disease patterns while maintaining efficient processing speed. Overall, The suggested system acts as a supportive tool for medical practitioners by enabling faster screening, improving access to diagnosis, and reducing reliance on expensive medical procedures, especially in resource-limited settings.
