We have developed computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) schemes for the detection of lung nodules, interstitial lung diseases, interval changes, and asymmetric opacities, and also for the differential diagnosis of lung nodules and interstitial lung diseases on chest radiographs. Observer performance studies indicate clearly that radiologists' diagnostic accuracy was improved significantly when radiologists used a computer output in their interpretations of chest radiographs. In addition, the automated recognition methods for the patient and the projection view by use of chest radiographs were useful for integrating the chest CAD schemes into the picture-archiving and communication system (PACS).
我们已经开发了计算机辅助诊断（CAD）方案，用于检测肺结节、间质性肺疾病、间期变化和不对称性肺不透明，以及用于胸部X光片上肺结节和间质性肺疾病的鉴别诊断。观察者性能研究清楚地表明，当放射科医生在解读胸部X光片时使用计算机输出结果时，他们的诊断准确性有了显著提高。此外，利用胸部X光片对患者和投照视图进行自动识别的方法，对于将胸部CAD方案集成到图像存档和通信系统（PACS）中很有用。
