Taylor Jackson's List: Principles of Computer Technology

• computer-aided detection
• procedures in medicine that assist doctors in the interpretation of medical images
• X-ray, MRI, and Ultrasound diagnostics yield a great deal of information
• typical appearances and to

  highlight conspicuous sections
• help scan digital images
• Computer-aided detection (CADe) systems are

  usually confined to marking conspicuous structures and sections. Computer-aided diagnosis (CADx) systems

  evaluate the conspicuous structures.
• Computer-aided simple triage (CAST) is another type of CAD, which performs a fully automatic initial interpretation and triage of studies into some meaningful categories
• Methodology
• Sensitivity and specificity
• Absolute detection rate
• Breast cancer
• Lung cancer (bronchial carcinoma)
• Colon cancer
• Coronary artery disease
• Congenital heart defect
• Nuclear medicine
