Chinese scientists propose a new AI-assisted diagnostic method for pulmonary nodules called M³Net

A research team from the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science, Chinese Academy of Sciences, has proposed a new AI-assisted diagnostic method for pulmonary nodules based on chest CT images, simulating the doctor's 'macro-meso-micro' diagnostic process. It improves indicators such as the accuracy rate of benign and malignant classification of pulmonary nodules on the LIDC-IDRI and USTC-FHLN datasets, especially showing significant advantages in differentiating difficult pulmonary nodules.
