• Title: X-ray Recognition: Patient identification from X-rays using a contrastive objective
• Authors: Hao Liang, Kevin Ni, Guha Balakrishnan
• Abstract summary: We show that deep learning models are surprisingly accurate at distinguishing CXRs belonging to the same patient from those belonging to different patients. These findings suggest potential privacy considerations with the proliferation of large public CXR databases.

• Abstract: Recent research demonstrates that deep learning models are capable of precisely extracting bio-information (e.g. race, gender and age) from patients' Chest X-Rays (CXRs). In this paper, we further show that deep learning models are also surprisingly accurate at recognition, i.e., distinguishing CXRs belonging to the same patient from those belonging to different patients. These findings suggest potential privacy considerations that the medical imaging community should consider with the proliferation of large public CXR databases.

  Image-to-text radiology report generation aims to automatically produce radiology reports that describe the findings in medical images. Most existing methods focus solely on the image data, disregarding the other patient information accessible to radiologists. We present a novel multi-modal deep neural network framework for generating chest X-rays reports by integrating structured patient data, such as vital signs and symptoms, alongside unstructured clinical notes.
