[Artificial intelligence in paediatric pneumology - opportunities and unanswered questions]
1Department of Pediatric Respiratory Care, Immunology and Intensive Care Medicine, Charité - Universitätsmedizin Berlin, Berlin, Germany.
Abstract:
Artificial intelligence (AI) is already being used in most medical disciplines, including paediatric pneumology. This review describes current developments in AI-supported technologies and discusses their potential for the diagnosis and treatment of lung diseases in children and adolescents. The spectrum ranges from models for analysing respiratory sounds and the automated evaluation of medical imaging to systems for supporting clinical decisions. In particular, challenges in the adaptation of AI for paediatric populations are also described. Finally, open questions, such as the implementation of AI-based software in everyday clinical practice, will be discussed.

Pulmonary Function Tests
Pulmonary Function Tests are crucial diagnostic tools for assessing respiratory function, particularly in patients with chronic respiratory disorders. They comprehensively evaluate lung volumes, ventilatory function, breathing mechanics, diffusion, and gas exchange. These tests help diagnose pulmonary diseases and play a significant role in monitoring disease progression, evaluating disability, and assessing response to therapy.
