Excerpt

Computer analysis of digitised mammograms is now remarkably sensitive for the detection of calcifications and masses. This sensitivity, however, is only achieved at low levels of specificity. System developers have tried to get around this difficulty by developing prompting systems, in which the computer algorithms are used to alert film readers to possible areas of abnormality. The idea is that the computer may be able to improve a radiologist's, or radiographer's, sensitivity while relying on his or her professional judgement to maintain acceptable levels of specificity. …
