Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Imaging has a long history as an aid to the diagnosis of TB. In recent years, the pace of technological development in the imaging of TB has been rapid, with the arrival of ultra-portable CXR and point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) devices, as well as substantial advances made in computer-aided detection (CAD) of CXRs, leading to the WHO’s landmark 2021 recommendation of CAD as an alternative to human interpretation of digital CXRs for the screening of TB. However, the evidence is currently limited and of low quality for the use of POCUS as a diagnostic aid for TB. In this chapter, we review the current status of these imaging tools to aid TB diagnosis.
