Summary

• What is new: EVA-X is the first self-supervised learning model for X-ray images that captures both semantic and geometric information, capable of analyzing over 20 different chest diseases.
• Why this is important: The challenge in AI analysis of chest X-ray images due to insufficient and varied levels of data annotation, leading to poor generalization and difficulty in clinical application.
• What the research proposes: Introducing EVA-X, a self-supervised learning foundational model designed for universal X-ray image representation, capable of disease detection and localization with minimal data annotation.
• Results: EVA-X has shown exceptional performance in detecting and localizing chest diseases, achieving leading results in over 11 different tasks and displaying strong potential in few-shot learning scenarios.
