96. Automatic Lung Analysis for COVID-19 Patients

Dr Fei Gao (Siemens Healthineers)

Talk

Objectives: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an infectious lung disease affecting more than 124 million individuals worldwide as of Mar 28, 2021, and still significantly impacts our daily life. In 2020, we presented an automatic lung analysis workflow to analyze lung function quantitatively at the lung lobe level [1]. To further support and contribute to COVID-19 analysis, we...

102. The role of AI in COVID-19 management: quantification of lung involvement using CT scans

Francesca Lizzi (Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare)

Talk

Purpose: The World Health Organization (WHO) fixed as the gold standard for COVID-19 diagnosis the positive tested RT-PCR while the use of Computed Tomography (CT) images and Artificial Intelligence (AI) for this purpose is still under evaluation since differential diagnosis for other kinds of pneumonia is not reliable. However, AI and CT may be useful to follow up patients and to evaluate...

Prognostic methods to predict the evolution of the COVID-19 disease can be decisive to address the most suitable therapeutic approach. We propose an AI algorithm to make predictions of the patient respiratory condition and functional response, by merging information from CT scans, blood gas analysis and biomechanical simulations of air ventilation in the lung tissues performed by the software...
