The Stop TB Partnership has been at the forefront of early implementation of AI-powered computer-aided detection (CAD) software for TB detection globally. Stop TB Partnership’s TB REACH Initiative has funded and supported the implementation of CAD products in 14 different countries across Africa, Latin America, and South-East Asia in a diverse range of populations and settings.  Many of the below case studies draw on TB REACH experience.
