In one embodiment, a computer-implemented method is for providing lymph node information. The method includes receiving medical imaging data; receiving atlas data spatially relating lymph node stations to at least one non-lymphatic anatomical structure; determining a lymph node position in the medical imaging data; generating the lymph node information, the lymph node information being indicative of a lymph node station, to which the lymph node position is anatomically allocated, by applying an algorithm onto the medical imaging data, the atlas data and the lymph node position; and providing the lymph node information.

Systems and method are described for determining a malignancy of a nodule. A medical image of a nodule of a patient is received. A patch surrounding the nodule is identified in the medical image. A malignancy of the nodule in the patch is predicted using a trained deep image-to-image network.

Techniques are described to infer 2-D segmentations of a region of interest using a neural network algorithm. Techniques are described to train the neural network algorithm. The 2-D segmentations are determined based on multiple 2-D projection images. For example, x-ray images can be used as an input.

A report generating system is operable to generate inference data for a medical scan indicating a first subset of a plurality of anatomical features of the medical scan are normal. A set of default natural language text corresponding to the first subset of the plurality of anatomical features are identified based on report template data. Preliminary report data is generated to include the set of default natural language text corresponding to the first subset of the plurality of anatomical features based on the inference data. The preliminary report data is displayed an interactive user interface, and review data is received based on user input in response to at least one prompt displayed via the interactive user interface. Final report data that includes natural language text data for each of the plurality of report sections is generated based on the review data.

The present invention relates to a decision support system and an image analysis method for providing information for enabling determination of a phenotype of a neoplasm in a human or animal body for enabling prognostication, comprising the steps of: receiving, by a processing unit, image data of the neoplasm; and deriving, by the processing unit, a plurality of image feature parameter values from the image data, said image parameter values relating to image features associated with the neoplasm; and deriving, by said processing unit using a signature model, one or more neoplasm signature model values associated with the neoplasm from said image feature parameter values, wherein said signature model includes a functional relation between or characteristic values of said image feature parameter values for deriving said neoplasm signature model values.

A label generating system operates to generate an artificial intelligence model by: training on a training data set that includes the plurality of medical scans with the corresponding global labels; generating testing global probability data by performing an inference function that utilizes the artificial intelligence model on the plurality of medical scans with the corresponding global labels, wherein the testing global probability data indicates a testing set of global probability values corresponding to the set of abnormality classes, and wherein each of the testing set of global probability values indicates a probability that a corresponding one of the set of abnormality classes is present in each of the plurality of medical scans with the corresponding global labels; comparing the testing set of global probability values to a corresponding confidence threshold for each of the plurality of medical scans selected based on the corresponding one of the global labels; generating an updated training data set by correcting ones of the plurality of medical scans having a corresponding one of the testing set of global probability values that compares unfavorably to the corresponding confidence threshold; and retraining the artificial intelligence model based on the updated training set.

A method of reading a medical image by a computing device operated by at least one processor is provided. The method includes obtaining an abnormality score of the input image using an abnormality prediction model, filtering the input image so as not to be subsequently analyzed when the abnormality score is less than or equal to a cut-off score based on the cut-off score which makes a specific reading sensitivity; and obtaining an analysis result of the input image using a classification model that distinguishes the input image into classification classes when the abnormality score is greater than the cut-off score.

The present disclosure relates to a method, a system, and a storage medium for segmenting a lung image. The method for segmenting a lung image comprises: obtaining medical image data containing a lung region; performing lung lobe segmentation on the medical image data to generate a plurality of lung lobe data subsets; generating updated lung image data based on one or a plurality of lung lobe data subsets in the plurality of lung lobe data subsets; and performing nidus segmentation on the updated lung image data to generate a segmentation image that identifies a pneumonia nidus.

An image processing apparatus extracts a first region and a second region from a medical image, identifies a third region that is included in the second region and that is at a distance greater than or equal to a threshold from the first region, and acquires a feature value that is a value indicating a feature of the second region on the basis of the third region.

A region specification apparatus specifies a region of an object which is included in an input image and which includes a plurality of subclass objects having different properties. The region specification apparatus includes a first discriminator that specifies an object candidate included in the input image. The first discriminator has a component configured to predict at least one of movement or transformation of a plurality of anchors according to the property of the subclass object and specify an object candidate region surrounding the object candidate.
