Comparison of deep learning, radiomics and subjective assessment of chest CT findings in SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

Comparison of deep learning algorithm, radiomics and subjective assessment of chest CT for predicting outcome (death or recovery) and intensive care unit (ICU) admission in patients with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection.

Methods

The multicenter, ethical committee-approved, retrospective study included non-contrast-enhanced chest CT of 221 SARS-CoV-2 positive patients from Italy (n = 196 patients; mean age 64 ± 16 years) and Denmark (n = 25; mean age 69 ± 13 years). A thoracic radiologist graded presence, type and extent of pulmonary opacities and severity of motion artifacts in each lung lobe on all chest CTs. Thin-section CT images were processed with CT Pneumonia Analysis Prototype (Siemens Healthineers) which yielded segmentat
