Abstract: The mortality rate of lung cancer is very high. The detection of lung nodules by chest CT is of great significance for the early diagnosis and treatment of lung cancer. Computer-aided detection and diagnostic systems can help radiologists reduce workload and improve diagnostic accuracy. With the development of deep learning, computer-aided detection and diagnosis systems based on deep learning are also growing. This article reviews the application and development of artificial intelligence in the detection and diagnosis of pulmonary nodules.

Key words: Artificial intelligence, Pulmonary nodules, Deep learning, Convolutional neural network, Computer-aided detection
