CARS report: CAD prompts range of behaviors in readers
By Eric Barnes
BARCELONA - How computer-aided detection (CAD) software works in theory is one thing, and how it functions in practice is another, as radiologists who use CAD have come to appreciate. But the ways in which readers react to CAD prompts, a subject that has received scant attention, has important implications for both CAD design and reader training.

Radiographers perform VC with CAD -- and controversy
By Eric Barnes
A new study from London put radiographers in charge of reading virtual colonoscopy (VC) data, with their performance monitored with computer-aided detection as a second reader. The study raises the question of whether it's inappropriate -- or even dangerous -- to allow nonradiologists to screen with VC.

CAD nabs the flat polyps VC readers may miss
By Eric Barnes
VIENNA - In two studies presented Sunday at the 2008 European Congress of Radiology, investigators tested colon computer-aided detection (CAD) schemes for their ability to find flat lesions. In both, the sensitivity was reassuringly high, though questions remain about the effect of false-positive CAD detections on reader performance and variations in flat polyp morphology.
