Existing deep learning approaches have limited emphasis on clinically deployable integration across tasks. Prior approaches focus on either multi-label abnormality classification or isolated disease detection. There is a need for a unified inference pipeline that combines general thoracic pathology classification with specialized tuberculosis screening.

The current models focus on binary classification and often miss post-TB sequelae. There is a need for a deep learning model that can detect multiclass tuberculosis. The study aims to address this gap by evaluating the clinical implementation of a deep learning model for multiclass tuberculosis detection.
