Research Research groups AI in thoracic oncology

About AI in thoracic oncology

We investigate how to develop robust and trustworthy artificial intelligence algorithms for medical imaging in the field of lung cancer, how to validate these algorithms in clinical practice, and how we can have the most impact with AI in healthcare.

Achievements

  1. We have developed numerous deep learning-based algorithms in the field of thoracic oncology, including algorithms that estimate the probability of malignancy of screen-detected and incidentally detected pulmonary nodules on CT and have externally validated these algorithms on multi-center multi-country datasets.
  2. We contributed to European recommendations for the management of pulmonary nodules on CT.
  3. We have organized leading scientific challenges and benchmarking studies in the field of lung cancer, such as the LUNA16 and LUNA25 challenges.
