Here, we provide the first study of automatic lung ultrasound analysis for differential diagnosis of bacterial and viral pneumonia; aiming to develop a medical decision support tool. Literature on exploiting medical image analysis and computer vision techniques to classify or segment CT or CXR data of COVID-19 patients recently exploded (for reviews, see Shi et al. In comparison to a naïve, frame-based video classifier (obtained by averaging scores of all frames), we also investigate Models Genesis, a generic model for 3D medical image analysis pretrained on lung CT scans [54] . Concerning per-class prediction accuracies, it is evident that bacterial pneumonia infections are distinguished best, with recall, precision, and specificity above 0.93 for VGG and VGG-CAM, indicating the models' ability to recognize strong irregularities in lung images. ./cache/cord-151667-nz26lxyk.txt ./txt/cord-151667-nz26lxyk.txt
