Abstract

Lung cancer is one among the lung diseases with a median survival rate where accurate early diagnosis can enhance the patient’s lifespan. Computed tomography (CT) is the most popular method for the diagnostic procedure for lung cancer. The increased number of preventive/early detection measures in the medical field has alleviated the demand for computerized solutions that provide accurate diagnosis in less time at reduced medical costs. Hence, researchers are develo** several deep learning algorithms to improve this accuracy in lung cancer screening with computed tomography. The objective of this paper is to help researchers and doctors in this field to understand the importance of deep learning for early diagnosis of lung cancer and also give a summary of different existing lung cancer predicting deep learning algorithms.
