Strengthening TB Detection at the Last Mile — Kenya

Kenya ranks among the top 30 countries globally with a high tuberculosis (TB) burden.
With a prevalence of 558 per 100,000, only 46% of TB cases are diagnosed and treated—leaving more than half undetected and at risk of continued spread.
This is where early, proactive screening becomes critical.
At Village of Hope Hospital in Kenya, every patient is screened with this intent. In this testimonial, Brandy Jeruto, Radiographer, shares how integrating AI into their workflow is helping strengthen TB detection.

DeepTek’s AI-powered lung health screening solution, Genki, supports the team by analyzing every chest X-ray—not just for suspected cases, but also helping flag potential TB cases that may otherwise go unnoticed.

This means patients can be identified earlier and started on treatment sooner—reducing the risk of transmission within communities.

Both Genki and Augmento are Kenya Board Certified, supporting healthcare providers with reliable, scalable solutions for TB screening.
A step forward in detection. A step closer to elimination.
