Effectiveness of Ultra-low-dose Chest CT With AI Based Denoising Solution

Not Applicable

• Conditions: Lung Diseases

• Registration Number: NCT05398887
• Lead Sponsor: Intermed Hospital

Brief Summary

The main objective of the study is to evaluate the detection rate of pulmonary conditions, percentage of ionizing radiation dose reduction, and state of image quality of ULDCT coupling with innovative vendor-neutral CT denoising solution based on deep learning technology.

Detailed Description

Considering lung cancer-related public health challenges, a reliable lung cancer screening method for high-risk cohorts in Mongolia is needed. Thus, our study aims to assess the detection rate of pulmonary conditions, percentage of ionizing radiation dose reduction, and state of image quality of ULDCT coupling with artificial intelligence based CT denoising technique among various patient groups.
