Preoperative evaluation of visceral pleural invasion in peripheral lung cancer utilizing deep learning technology.

PURPOSE: This study aimed to assess the efficiency of artificial intelligence (AI) in the detection of visceral pleural invasion (VPI) of lung cancer using high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) images, which is challenging for experts because of its significance in T-classification and lymph node metastasis prediction.

A machine learning-based lung ultrasound algorithm for the diagnosis of acute heart failure.

Lung ultrasound (LUS) is an effective tool for diagnosing acute heart failure (AHF). However, several imaging protocols currently exist and how to best use LUS remains undefined. We aimed at developing a lung ultrasound-based model for AHF diagnosis using machine learning. Random forest and decision trees were generated using the LUS data (via an 8-zone scanning protocol) in patients with acute dy...
