• Abstract summary: After ChestX-ray14 dataset containing over 100,000 frontal-view X-ray images of 14 diseases was released, several models were proposed with high accuracy. We develop a work flow for lung disease diagnosis in chest X-ray images, which can improve the average AUROC of the state-of-the-art model from 0.8414 to 0.8445.

• Abstract: Chest X-ray examination plays an important role in lung disease detection. The more accuracy of this task, the more experienced radiologists are required. After ChestX-ray14 dataset containing over 100,000 frontal-view X-ray images of 14 diseases was released, several models were proposed with high accuracy. In this paper, we develop a work flow for lung disease diagnosis in chest X-ray images, which can improve the average AUROC of the state-of-the-art model from 0.8414 to 0.8445. We apply image preprocessing steps before feeding to the 14 diseases detection model. Our project includes three models: the first one is DenseNet-121 to predict whether a processed image has a better result, a convolutional auto-encoder model for bone shadow exclusion is the second one, and the last is the original CheXNet.

  During the COVID-19 pandemic, the sheer volume of imaging performed in an emergency setting for COVID-19 diagnosis has resulted in a wide variability of clinical CXR acquisitions. The variable quality of clinically-acquired CXRs within publicly available datasets could have a profound effect on algorithm performance. We propose a simple and effective step-wise approach to pre-processing a COVID-19 chest X-ray dataset to remove undesired biases.

  Lung nodule detection in chest X-ray (CXR) images is common to early screening of lung cancers. Deep-learning-based Computer-Assisted Diagnosis (CAD) systems can support radiologists for nodule screening in CXR. To alleviate the limited availability of such datasets, lung nodule synthesis methods are proposed for the sake of data augmentation.

  deep learning has become the most powerful computer-aided diagnosis technology for improving disease identification performance. For chest X-ray imaging, annotating large-scale data requires professional domain knowledge and is time-consuming. In this paper, we propose many-to-one distribution learning (MODL) and K-nearest neighbor smoothing (KNNS) methods to improve a single model's disease identification performance.

  We measured the diagnostic performance for 8 different chest X-ray models when applied to smartphone photos of chest X-rays and external datasets. We found that on photos of chest X-rays, all 8 models experienced a statistically significant drop in task performance. Some chest X-ray models, under clinically relevant distribution shifts, were comparable to radiologists while other models were not.

  We show that a deep learning model performing well when tested on the same dataset as training data starts to perform poorly when it is tested on a dataset from a different source. By employing an adversarial training strategy, we show that a network can be forced to learn a source-invariant representation.
