Purpose: To explore the accuracy of artificial intelligence (AI) for the diagnosis of pulmonary nodules (PNs) on computerized tomography (CT) scans.
Methods: In this study, 360 PNs (251 malignant nodules and 109 benign nodules) were retrospectively analyzed in 309 participants examined for PNs, and CT images were reviewed both by radiologists and using AI technology. With postoperative pathologic results as the gold standard, the accuracy, misdiagnosis, missed diagnosis, and true negative rates of CT results (human and AI) were calculated by using 2×2 crosstabs.
