One of the primary causes of death worldwide is still heart disease. Although echocardiography is a commonly used method for identifying cardiovascular diseases, precise interpretation of echocardiogram pictures necessitates specialist medical knowledge. In order to overcome this difficulty, this paper presents a deep learning-based method for automatically classifying heart conditions from echocardiography data using the EfficientNetB0 architecture. For medical picture analysis, EfficientNetB0 offers a lightweight yet effective solution thanks to its compound scaling technique, which balances network depth, width, and resolution. In order to lessen the need for human interpretation, the model is trained to automatically extract intricate and distinctive features from echocardiographic images. EfficientNetB0 is especially well-suited for real-time clinical use since it guarantees great accuracy at a cheap computing cost by utilizing its efficiency and good generalization potential. This strategy seeks to assist healthcare providers in enhancing diagnostic accessibility, consistency, and efficiency. The suggested approach has the potential to improve cardiovascular disease prognosis and early detection, thereby increasing the scalability of sophisticated diagnostic capabilities in a variety of healthcare settings.

One of the most common and deadly infectious illnesses in the world is still tuberculosis (TB), especially in developing nations with inadequate healthcare systems. In order to stop the spread of tuberculosis and enhance patient outcomes, early identification and diagnosis are essential. In this study, we present a deep learning-based system that uses chest X-ray pictures to automatically detect tuberculosis. Despite the difficulties of limited dataset availability, the system uses transfer learning using MobileNetV2 and DenseNet architectures to classify chest Xrays as either TB-positive or Healthy, reaching notable accuracy. To increase model generalisation and image quality, pre-processing methods like Contrast Limited Adaptive Histogram Equalisation (CLAHE) and sophisticated data augmentation approaches are used. The trained model is then implemented as a Flask web application, offering a user-friendly interface with features like secure login, image upload and preview, prediction results with probability scores, and performance metrics visualisation like accuracy curves, confusion matrices, and ROC curves. The suggested framework shows how deep learning can be used to create scalable, dependable, and affordable diagnostic tools to help radiologists and other medical professionals with TB screening and diagnosis.
