Prediction of Lung CT Scores of Systemic Sclerosis by Cascaded Regression Neural Networks [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Visually scoring lung involvement in systemic sclerosis from CT scans plays an important role in monitoring progression, but its labor intensiveness hinders practical application. We proposed, therefore, an automatic scoring framework that consists of two cascaded deep regression neural networks.
