Screening Mammography-detected Cancers: Sensitivity of a Computer-aided Detection System Applied to Full-Field Digital Mammograms

摘要

Results.-The CAD system correctly marked 99 (96.1%) of 103 breast cancers. The CAD system marked all 44 breast cancers that manifested as micro-calcifications only, all 23 breast cancers that manifested as a mass with microcal-cifications, and 32 (89%) of 36 lesions that appeared as a mass only. The sensitivity of the CAD system in the fatty breast group was 95% (59 of 62) and in the dense breast group was 98% (40 of 41) (P = .537).
