However, such methods tend to generate over-smoothed images with artifacts that can make interpretation difficult. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of super-resolution methods for improving the image quality of magnified chest radiographs. Materials and Methods: A total of 247 chest X-rays were sampled from the JSRT database, then divided into 93 training cases with non-nodules and 154 test cases with lung nodules. We first trained two types of super-resolution methods, sparse-coding super-resolution (ScSR) and super-resolution convolutional neural network (SRCNN). With the trained super-resolution methods, the high-resolution image was then reconstructed using the super-resolution methods from a low-resolution image that was down-sampled from the original test image. We compared the image quality of the super-resolution methods and the linear interpolations (nearest neighbor and bilinear interpolations). For quantitative evaluation, we measured two image quality metrics: peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) and structural similarity (SSIM). For comparative evaluation of the super-resolution methods, we measured the computation time per image. Results: The PSNRs and SSIMs for the ScSR and the SRCNN schemes were significantly higher than those of the linear interpolation methods (p p p Conclusion: Super-resolution methods provide significantly better image quality than linear interpolation methods for magnified chest radiograph images. Of the two tested schemes, the SRCNN scheme processed the images fastest;thus, SRCNN could be clinically superior for processing radiographs in terms of both image quality and processing speed.展开更多
