Time study of computer aided diagnosis - a preliminary results on temporal subtraction

Abstract In this paper, we present the results of time study of CAD (Computer-Aided Diagnosis) on temporal subtraction for ground-glass shadow on chest radiographs. Our results showed that the average reading time with the CAD system was significantly longer than without employing the CAD system. However, diagnostic accuracy with temporal subtraction images was slightly improved than without temporal subtraction (with; Az=0.96, without; Az=0.95). Consequently, we could interpret that the radiologist's performance was enhanced by CAD on temporal subtraction, even with longer reading time.
