Precaution of pneumoconiosis is more important than treatment. However, the current process can't early warn the high-risk dust exposed workers until they are diagnosed with pneumoconiosis. With the feature of efficiency, impersonality and quantification, artificial intelligence is just appropriate for solving this problems. Therefore, we are aiming at adapting deep learning to develop models of pneumoconiosis intelligent detection, grade diagnosis and high risk early warning. The annotated images will be used for convolutional neural networks (CNNs) algorithm training, aiming at pneumoconiosis screening and grade diagnosis. Moreover, risk score calculated by density heat map will be used for early warning of dust-exposed workers. Then follow up of cohort will be implied to verify the validity of the risk score. By this way, the high-risk dust-exposed workers will get early intervention and better prognosis, which can obviously reduce medical burden.
