Abstract
Assessment of pulmonary function in coronavirus patients includes use of a computer aided diagnostic system to assess pulmonary function and risk of mortality in patents with coronavirus disease 2019. The CAD system processes thoracic X-ray data from a patient, extracts imaging markers, and grades disease severity based at least in part on the extracted imaging markers, thereby distinguishing between higher risk and lower risk patients. An alternative approach is to use an automatic CAD system to grade COVID-19 from computed tomography (CT) images to determine an accurate diagnosis of lung function.
