| This challenge (http://isbichallenges.cloudapp.net/competitions/15) intends to advance methods development on the current clinical impediment to assess nodules status for lung cancer screening subjects with consecutive scans. We invite ISBI 2018 participants to develop algorithms or re-package computational methods with potential clinical utility to identify malignancy. We will provide sequential low-dose CT (LDCT) scans at two screening intervals from the National Lung Screening Trial (NLST), with matched identified nodules from the same subject. We would like the participating teams to provide estimated nodules dimensions (longest diameter, volume) in the screening interval and the probability of malignancy. The teams are open to use any radiomic descriptors for nodules across time points and or change in size measurements including doubling time (DT) toward their assessment. |
