Machine-Learning-Based Multiple Abnormality Prediction with Large-Scale Chest Computed Tomography Volumes [PDF]
, 2020 Machine learning models for radiology benefit from large-scale data sets with high quality labels for abnormalities. We curated and analyzed a chest computed tomography (CT) data set of 36,316 volumes from 19,993 unique patients. This is the largest multiply-annotated volumetric medical imaging data set reported. To annotate this data set, we developed
