Abstract

BACKGROUND: Artificial intelligence can assist in interpreting chest X-ray radiography (CXR) data, but large datasets require efficient image annotation. The purpose of this study is to extract CXR labels from diagnostic reports based on natural language processing, train convolutional neural networks (CNNs), and evaluate the classification performance of CNN using CXR data from multiple centers.
