Artificial intelligence-based quantification of COVID-19 pneumonia burden using chest CT

During the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, artificial intelligence (AI) based software on chest computed tomography (CT) imaging has proven to have a valuable role in accelerating diagnosis and screening. The proposed AI-based tools proved to be rapid and reproducible techniques to guide patient management and treatment protocols. Although no specific guidelines exist, CT-imaging and clinical features are used for patient staging. To shed light on the role of AI techniques that have been developed in fighting COVID-19, in this review, studies investigating the usage of commonly used AI models on chest CT imaging for disease quantification and prognostication are collected.
