Title
Development and validation of a report generation model for the low-dose chest CT scans
Summary
Recent advancement of deep learning in the field of language models showed potential for the automatic image captioning and reporting. It is deemed feasible using the image encoder and language models to develop and validate a report generation model for the low-dose chest CT scans. The model-generated reports can be used as preliminary report templates for radiologists and as useful preliminary reports for clinicians. Reporting lung nodule is one of the primary targets of our project. Thus, in this study, we aim to develop and validate an automatic report generation model for the low-dose chest CT scans.
Aims

1. This project aims to develop and validate an automatic report generation model for the low-dose chest CT scans.
2. Target findings include lung nodules and diffuse parenchymal lung disease.
3. The study outcome is the rate of automatic CT reporting, assessed by radiologists.
