Searching for pneumothorax in x-ray images using autoencoded deep features

Abstract: Fast diagnosis and treatment of pneumothorax, a collapsed or dropped lung, is crucial to avoid fatalities. Pneumothorax is typically detected on a chest X-ray image through visual inspection by experienced radiologists. However, the detection rate is quite low due to the complexity of visual inspection for small lung collapses. Therefore, there is an urgent need for automated detection systems to assist radiologists. Although deep learning classifiers generally deliver high accuracy levels in many applications… Show more

“…With the recent development of deep learning technology for image recognition, much of the research is being focused on the automatic interpretation of medical images, including X-ray images. In particular, there have been studies on algorithms for diagnosing diseases such as tuberculosis, pneumonia, and pneumothorax using chest X-ray scanning [6][7][8][9] .…”

“…Moreover, Arterial blood gas tests measure the levels of hypercarbia, hypoxemia, and acidemia, the presence of which is determined by the degree of cardiopulmonary compromise (Daley, 2022). When a pneumothorax is detected, chest radiography provides extra information besides confirmation like severity, potential causes, a baseline from which to proceed, and help with the therapeutic approach (Sze-To et al, 2021). Many techniques such as ETT, PCMV, HFOV, and percutaneous tracheostomy are used for respiratory distress management.…”
