Abstract
A method for providing a lung disease risk measure in a Computer Aided Diagnosis system is described. The method comprising the steps of: receiving a plurality of inputs for a subject, each input comprising at least one image showing all or part of the lungs of a patient and a time stamp for the image, where the inputs are obtained at varying intervals; analysing the inputs to assess temporal changes in the images using at least one of an input data encoder and a time stamp encoder; inputting the output of at least one of the encoders to a score calculator to calculate a risk score; outputting the risk score indicating the lung disease risk for the subject. A Computer Aided diagnosis system for implementing the method is also described.
