Advancements and challenges in deep learning techniques for lung disease diagnosis

Abstrak

This study explores the application of deep learning (DL) techniques in diagnosing lung diseases using screening methods such as Chest X-Rays (CXRs) and computed-tomography (CT) scans. The motivation for this research stems from the need for advanced diagnostic tools in healthcare, with DL showing significant potential in medical image analysis. Despite advancements, challenges such as high costs of CT scans, processing time constraints, image noise, and variability persist. To address these issues, the study conducts a thorough literature survey to identify diverse preprocessing techniques, detection algorithms, and classification models designed for CXR analysis. In conclusion, this work contributes to the advancement of medical imaging technologies by offering innovative solutions, acknowledging existing limitations, and addressing the challenges in lung disease diagnosis. Future research should focus on further refining these techniques and exploring their application in broader clinical settings.
