PulmoSight: Lung Cancer Rapid Screening & Triage

A cross-institutional PolyU–HKUST student research prototype for AI-assisted chest CT review. PulmoSight is designed to flag suspicious lung nodules, classify risk, segment high-risk regions, and produce structured outputs that help clinical teams prioritise cases for physician review. It is a triage-support instrument, not an autonomous diagnostic system or replacement for clinical judgement.

Highlights

  • Purpose-built for rapid suspicious-case screening and triage rather than general radiology or long-term nodule management
  • Clinician-in-the-loop workflow: preprocessing, lung-region extraction, candidate analysis, risk classification, selective segmentation, structured output, visualisation, and physician review
  • Clear safety boundary: outputs support prioritisation and follow-up review; physicians remain responsible for final clinical decisions
  • Deployment concept considers smaller healthcare markets, localisation constraints, limited infrastructure, smaller annotation datasets, and medical-data privacy
  • Outstanding Grand Award, CTM Macau AI + Big Data Smart Solutions Design Competition 2026
  • Best Paper Award, ICACIRA 2025, for the project’s peer-reviewed core methodology
  • Third prize, 2026 National Macau University Student Innovation & Entrepreneurship Competition
  • Cross-institutional team spanning AI, software engineering, cybersecurity, and medical-domain advice
  • Featured in Macao Daily (16 April 2026)
