Advances in AI-Powered COPD Assessment, Subtype Classification, and Personalized Management
摘要: 慢性阻塞性肺疾病(Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, COPD)是一种以持续气流受限为特征的异质性疾病,主要病理特征包括小气道重构与肺气肿形成。近年来,人工智能(Artificial Intelligence, AI)技术在医学影像分析中的快速发展为COPD的影像评估、病理亚型解析及个体化管理提供了前所未有的机遇。本文系统回顾了2015年以来AI在COPD及其关键影像学表现——肺气肿与肺大疱中的应用进展,包括影像自动评估、病理表型挖掘、疾病进展预测及个性化治疗支持等方向。同时,对现阶段AI模型在数据异质性、模型可解释性、跨中心泛化能力及临床转化方面的不足进行分析,并提出未来研究展望。通过整合机器学习、深度学习及放射组学等技术,本研究综述旨在为AI驱动的COPD精准医学研究提供叙述性回顾。
Abstract: Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a heterogeneous disorder characterized by persistent airflow limitation, with key pathological features including small airway remodeling and emphysema formation. The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) in medical imaging has created unprecedented opportunities for COPD imaging assessment, pathological subtype analysis, and personalized management. This systematic review examines AI applications in COPD and its critical imaging manifestations—emphysema and pulmonary bullae—since 2015, covering areas such as automated imaging evaluation, pathological phenotype analysis, disease progression prediction, and personalized treatment support. The study also analyzes current limitations in AI models regarding data heterogeneity, model interpretability, cross-center generalization, and clinical translation, while proposing future research directions. By integrating machine learning, deep learning, and radiomics technologies, this review aims to provide a narrative overview of AI-driven precision medicine research in COPD.
