AI-based improvement in lung cancer detection on chest radiographs: results of a multi-reader study in NLST dataset

Our study included 519 screening chest radiographs (CXRs) from 294 patients enrolled in the National Lung Screening Trial (NLST) who either had proven to have lung cancer or did not have lung cancer over the duration of the trial. Five attending radiologists and three radiology residents from South Korea and the U.S. independently assessed all CXRs for the presence of

Diagnostic performance for pulmonary adenocarcinoma on CT: comparison of radiologists with and without three-dimensional convolutional neural network

Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) are often used in the area of image recognition. We constructed the three dimensional (3D)-CNN model to predict pulmonary invasive adenocarcinoma (IVA) in this study. When supported by the 3D-CNN model, a less-experienced radiologist showed improved diagnostic accuracy for diagnosing IVA without deteriorating any diagnostic performances, resulting in the increase in the sensitivity of IVA diagnosis

Artificial intelligence and radiomics enhance the positive predictive value of digital chest tomosynthesis for lung cancer detection within SOS clinical trial

Digital tomosynthesis (DTS) could be a realistic alternative to low dose CT for lung cancer screening, in particular for detecting nodules larger than 5 mm. In the past years, within SOS clinical trial we found that the probability of detecting lung cancer with the DTS in a population of heavy smokers older than 45 years was around 1%, a value
