An artificial intelligence model for predicting an appropriate mAs with target exposure indicator for chest digital radiography.

Scientific reports
In digital radiography, image quality is synergistically affected by anatomy-specific examinations, exposure factors, body parameters, detector types, and vendors/systems. However, estimating appropriate exposure factors before radiography with optim...

Virtual lung screening trial (VLST): An in silico study inspired by the national lung screening trial for lung cancer detection.

Medical image analysis
Clinical imaging trials play a crucial role in advancing medical innovation but are often costly, inefficient, and ethically constrained. Virtual Imaging Trials (VITs) present a solution by simulating clinical trial components in a controlled, risk-f...

Unlocking the Potential of Weakly Labeled Data: A Co-Evolutionary Learning Framework for Abnormality Detection and Report Generation.

IEEE transactions on medical imaging
Anatomical abnormality detection and report generation of chest X-ray (CXR) are two essential tasks in clinical practice. The former aims at localizing and characterizing cardiopulmonary radiological findings in CXRs, while the latter summarizes the ...

A clinically accessible small multimodal radiology model and evaluation metric for chest X-ray findings.

Nature communications
Large foundation models show promise in biomedicine but face challenges in clinical use due to performance gaps, accessibility, cost, and lack of scalable evaluation. Here we show that open-source small multimodal models can bridge these gaps in radi...

Automated Radiology Report Labeling in Chest X-Ray Pathologies: Development and Evaluation of a Large Language Model Framework.

JMIR medical informatics
BACKGROUND: Labeling unstructured radiology reports is crucial for creating structured datasets that facilitate downstream tasks, such as training large-scale medical imaging models. Current approaches typically rely on Bidirectional Encoder Represen...

Evaluating a large language model's accuracy in chest X-ray interpretation for acute thoracic conditions.

The American journal of emergency medicine
BACKGROUND: The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) has great ability to impact healthcare. Chest X-rays are essential for diagnosing acute thoracic conditions in the emergency department (ED), but interpretation delays due to radiologi...

Enhanced tuberculosis detection using Vision Transformers and explainable AI with a Grad-CAM approach on chest X-rays.

BMC medical imaging
Tuberculosis (TB), caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, remains a leading global health challenge, especially in low-resource settings. Accurate diagnosis from chest X-rays is critical yet challenging due to subtle manifestations of TB, particularly...

Classification of pulmonary diseases from chest radiographs using deep transfer learning.

PloS one
Pulmonary diseases are the leading causes of disabilities and deaths worldwide. Early diagnosis of pulmonary diseases can reduce the fatality rate. Chest radiographs are commonly used to diagnose pulmonary diseases. In clinical practice, diagnosing p...

Forecasting trends of rising emergency department chest imaging using machine learning.

Emergency radiology
INTRODUCTION: Imaging studies in the acute care setting, such as the emergency room, have been increasing. In this report, we use the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid services (CMS) database to assess trends in ED chest CT and chest CTA imaging in E...

Learning Consistent Semantic Representation for Chest X-ray via Anatomical Localization in Self-Supervised Pre-Training.

IEEE journal of biomedical and health informatics
Despite the similar global structures in Chest X-ray (CXR) images, the same anatomy exhibits varying appearances across images, including differences in local textures, shapes, colors, etc. Learning consistent representations for anatomical semantics...
