Abstract
A method for assessing cardiothoracic ratio (CTR) includes following steps. A testing X-ray image database of a subject is provided. A first image data classifying step is performed, wherein the testing X-ray image database is classified by a first deep learning neural network classifier to obtain a testing chest X-ray image data. A second image data classifying step is performed, wherein the testing chest X-ray image data is classified by a second deep learning neural network classifier to obtain a target chest X-ray image data. A feature extracting step is performed, wherein a diameter of thoracic cavity and a diameter of cardiac silhouette of the target chest X-ray image data are captured automatically and then trained to achieve a convergence by a third deep learning neural network classifier. An assessing step is performed, wherein an assessing result of CTR is obtained according to a feature of CTR.
