Abstract
A device may obtain first information relating to one or more first lung nodules identified in first imaging of a chest of a patient and second information relating to one or more second lung nodules identified in second imaging of the chest of the patient. The device may provide the first information and the second information to a machine learning model. The device may determine, using the machine learning model, a risk of lung cancer associated with the patient based on an elapsed time between performance of the first imaging and the second imaging and differences between the first information and the second information. The risk of lung cancer may have an inverse correlation to the elapsed time and a direct correlation to the differences. The device may perform one or more actions based on the risk of lung cancer that is determined
