Detecting Pulmonary Embolism from Computed Tomography Using Convolutional Neural Network [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 The clinical symptoms of pulmonary embolism (PE) are very diverse and non-specific, which makes it difficult to diagnose. In addition, pulmonary embolism has multiple triggers and is one of the major causes of vascular death. Therefore, if it can be detected and treated quickly, it can significantly reduce the risk of death in hospitalized patients. In
