Automated Identification of Thoracic Pathology from Chest Radiographs with Enhanced Training Pipeline [PDF]
Proc. SPIE 10950, Medical Imaging 2019: Computer-Aided Diagnosis,
vol. 10950, p. 109503F, (2019), 2020 Chest x-rays are the most common radiology studies for diagnosing lung and heart disease. Hence, a system for automated pre-reporting of pathologic findings on chest x-rays would greatly enhance radiologists' productivity. To this end, we investigate a deep-learning framework with novel training schemes for classification of different thoracic ...
