• Abstract: Lung cancer continues to be the predominant cause of cancer-related mortality globally. This review analyzes various approaches, including advanced image processing methods, focusing on their efficacy in interpreting CT scans, chest radiographs, and biological markers. Notably, we identify critical gaps in the previous surveys, including the need for robust models that can generalize across diverse populations and imaging modalities. This comprehensive synthesis aims to serve as a foundational resource for researchers and clinicians, guiding future efforts toward more accurate and efficient lung cancer detection. Key findings reveal that 3D CNN architectures integrated with CT scans achieve the most superior performances, yet challenges such as high false positives, dataset variability, and computational complexity persist across modalities.

  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.

  Lung cancer is a leading cause of cancer mortality globally, highlighting the importance of understanding its mortality risks to design effective therapies. The National Lung Screening Trial (NLST) employed computed tomography texture analysis to quantify the mortality risks of lung cancer patients. We propose a novel Penalized Deep Partially Linear Cox Model (Penalized DPLC), which incorporates the SCAD penalty to select important texture features and employs a deep neural network to estimate the nonparametric component of the model.
