    Lung cancer has the highest mortality rate among cancers, necessitating early diagnosis of malignant pulmonary nodules for improved patient outcomes.

  • 2

    AI models have been developed to automate pulmonary nodule detection and classification, aiming to reduce false positives and enhance risk prediction.

  • 3

    The study evaluated three AI models against histopathology to assess their diagnostic accuracy in classifying pulmonary nodules.
