Consortium partners

The CAD LUS4TB consortium connects African and European researchers from nine institutions in six countries with a common goal: to improve access to reliable, affordable TB screening in sub-Saharan Africa by using AI-supported lung ultrasound on mobile devices. The project brings together experts from various disciplines, including clinical research, diagnostics, implementation science, social science, health economics, policy translation, and data and computer science.
