The pilot study findings revealed the tool can reduce radiologist workload by up to 80 percent while missing zero cases of tuberculosis
The Dubai Police have categorically denied allegations that an American woman was arrested merely for "yelling" in public.
The claims, which were mentioned in some stories circulating in the media, "present a completely distorted picture of the case", the authorities said in a statement issued to Khaleej Times on Saturday.
It wasn't only a case of "screaming". According to the statement, the Dubai Police received a complaint from a car rental office — which accused the woman of "slandering and defaming an employee amidst a dispute over car rental fees".
Defamation is a serious offence punishable by hefty fines and jail time in the UAE. According to the law, "publicly attributing statements to another person which may expose him to contempt of others" can get one fined Dh20,000 and jailed for up to two years.
Based on the Dubai Police statement — which was issued through the Dubai Media Office — legal procedures between the woman and the car rental office are still ongoing.
"The individual was questioned as per legal procedures and subsequently released pending the resolution of ongoing legal proceedings," it added.
