Application of artificial intelligence in lung cancer screening: A real-world study in a Chinese physical examination population.

ABSTRACT:

Background

With the rapid increase of chest computed tomography (CT) images, the workload faced by radiologists has increased dramatically. It is undeniable that the use of artificial intelligence (AI) image-assisted diagnosis system in clinical treatment is a major trend in medical development. Therefore, in order to explore the value and diagnostic accuracy of the current AI system in clinical application, we aim to compare the detection and differentiation of benign and malignant pulmonary nodules between AI system and physicians, so as to provide a theoretical basis for clinical application.

Methods

Our study encompassed a cohort of 23 336 patients who underwent chest low-dose spiral CT screening for lung cancer at the Health Management Center of West China Hospital. We
