This review looks at a variety of different ways in which computers can be used to assist in the interpretation of radiological images and in radiological decision-making. The issues involved in the design of computerized decision aids are introduced and four criteria proposed for evaluating such aids: need, practicality, veracity and relevance. These criteria are used to assess research into decision aids based on: image databases, numerical methods, expert systems, image processing and image understanding systems. Possible directions for research leading to aids of practical value are discussed in the conclusion.
本综述探讨了计算机可用于辅助放射影像解读和放射决策的多种不同方式。介绍了计算机化决策辅助工具设计中涉及的问题,并提出了评估此类辅助工具的四个标准:必要性、实用性、准确性和相关性。这些标准用于评估基于以下方面的决策辅助工具研究:图像数据库、数值方法、专家系统、图像处理和图像理解系统。结论中讨论了可能导致具有实用价值的辅助工具的研究方向。
