Deep Learning Diagnostic and Risk-stratification for IPF and COPD
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, non‑specific interstitial pneumonia, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease are severe, progressive, irreversible pulmonary disorders with modest therapeutic response and poor prognosis. Prompt and accurate diagnosis is essential to enable early care that can delay disease progression and prolong survival. Artificial intelligence–assisted digital lung auscultation and deep‑learning automation of lung ultrasound offer alternative, objective methods for earlier diagnosis of these conditions.
