| Summary: | Chest X-ray (CXR) interpretations are conducted in hospitals and medical facilities on daily basis. If the interpretation tasks were performed correctly, various vital medical conditions of patients can be revealed such as pneumonia, pneumothorax, interstitial lung disease, heart failure and bone fracture. The current practices often involve tedious manual processes dependent on the expertise of radiologist or consultant, thus, the execution is easily prone to human errors of being misdiagnosed. With the recent advances of deep learning and increased hardware computational power, researchers are working on various networks and algorithms to develop machines learning that can assists radiologists in their diagnosis and reduce the probability of misdiagnosis. This paper presents a review of deep learning advancements made in the field of chest radiography. It discusses single and multi-level localization and segmentation techniques adopted by researchers for higher accuracy and precision. |
