Extracting Lungs from CT Images using Fully Convolutional Networks [PDF]
, 2018 Analysis of cancer and other pathological diseases, like the interstitial lung diseases (ILDs), is usually possible through Computed Tomography (CT) scans. To aid this, a preprocessing step of segmentation is performed to reduce the area to be analyzed, segmenting the lungs and removing unimportant regions.

An Efficient End-to-End Deep Neural Network for Interstitial Lung Disease Recognition and Classification [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 The automated Interstitial Lung Diseases (ILDs) classification technique is essential for assisting clinicians during the diagnosis process. Detecting and classifying ILDs patterns is a challenging problem. This paper introduces an end-to-end deep convolution neural network (CNN) for classifying ILDs patterns.

A common microbial signature is present in the lower airways of interstitial lung diseases including sarcoidosis [PDF]
, 2018 Background: The etiology of pulmonary sarcoidosis is not well established. Although the mechanism triggering pulmonary sarcoidosis remains to be established, inflammatory reactions seem to play an important role in this process.

Outcomes and Incidence of PF-ILD According to Different Definitions in a Real-World Setting
Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2021 Background: Almost one-third of fibrosing ILD (fILDs) have a clinical disease behavior similar to IPF, demonstrating a progressive phenotype (PF-ILD). However, there are no globally accepted criteria on the definition of a progressive phenotype in non ...

Multi-source Transfer Learning with Convolutional Neural Networks for Lung Pattern Analysis [PDF]
, 2016 Early diagnosis of interstitial lung diseases is crucial for their treatment, but even experienced physicians find it difficult, as their clinical manifestations are similar. In order to assist with the diagnosis, computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) systems have been developed. These commonly rely on a fixed scale classifier that scans CT images, recognizes
