The traditional chest radiograph is still ubiquitous in clinical practice, and will likely remain so for quite some time. Yet, its interpretation is notoriously difficult. This explains the continued interest in computer-aided diagnosis for chest radiography. The purpose of this survey is to categorize and briefly review the literature on computer analysis of chest images, which comprises over 150 papers published in the last 30 years. Remaining challenges are indicated and some directions for future research are given.
传统的胸部X光片在临床实践中仍然无处不在,而且很可能在相当长的一段时间内继续如此。然而,其解读难度极大。这就解释了为何人们对胸部X光片的计算机辅助诊断一直兴趣浓厚。本次调查的目的是对有关胸部图像计算机分析的文献进行分类并简要综述,这些文献包括过去30年发表的150多篇论文。文中指出了尚存的挑战,并给出了一些未来研究的方向。
