Precise pulmonary scanning and reducing medical radiation exposure by developing a clinically applicable intelligent CT system: Toward improving patient care

摘要

Interstitial lung disease requires frequent re-examination, which directly causes excessive cumulative radiation exposure. To date, AI has not been applied to CT for enhancing clinical care; thus, we hypothesize AI may empower CT with intelligence to realize automatic and accurate pulmonary scanning, thus dramatically decrease medical radiation exposure without compromising patient care.
