Two main issues that complicate deploying these systems are patient privacy and scaling to the global population. To deploy a system at scale with minimal computational cost while preserving privacy we present a web delivered (but locally run) system for diagnosing chest X-Rays. Code is delivered via a URL to a web browser (including cell phones) but the patient data remains on the users machine and all processing occurs locally. The system is designed to be used as a reference where a user can process an image to confirm or aid in their diagnosis. The system contains three main components: out-of-distribution detection, disease prediction, and prediction explanation. The system open source and freely available here: <a href=\"https:\/\/mlmed.org\/tools\/xray\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">this https URL<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/mlmed\/dl-web-xray\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Source Code<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Joseph Paul Cohen, Paul Bertin, Vincent Frappier. &#8220;Chester: A Web Delivered Locally Computed Chest X-Ray Disease Prediction System&#8221;.
