The most productive institutions are Capital Medical University in China, followed by Sungkyunkwan University in South Korea. The most relevant journals specialize in the field of pulmonology and cancer. Scientific output shows a positive trend, with growth in Q1 quartile journals becoming more noticeable from 2020 onward. In the thematic analysis, research fields such as \u201ccomputer-assisted tomography\u201d emerge. China leads in this field of research, with an extensive cooperation network involving a high level of participation from Asian countries.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n
