Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis measures the “diagnostic accuracy” of a
medical imaging system, which represents the second level of diagnostic efficacy in the …

In the receiver operating characteristic paradigm the observer assigns a single rating to
each image and the location of the perceived abnormality, if any, is ignored. In the free …

Statistical evaluation of diagnostic performance in general and Receiver Operating
Characteristic (ROC) analysis in particular are important for assessing the performance of …

Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have been successfully applied in the computer-
aided ultrasound diagnosis for breast cancer. Up to now, several CNN-based methods have …

" This book presents the technology evaluation methodology from the point of view of
radiological physics and contrasts the purely physical evaluation of image quality with the …

A common task in medical imaging is assessing whether a new imaging system, or a variant
of an existing one, is an improvement over an existing imaging technology. Imaging systems …

Microaneurysms are one of the first clinical signs of diabetic retinopathy, and their detection
is crucial for an early diagnosis of the disease. In this contribution, an approach based on …

Dual-energy (DE) chest radiographs provide greater diagnostic information than standard
radiographs by separating the image into bone and soft tissue, revealing suspicious lesions …

Objectives: Volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) is a novel form of intensity-modulated
radiation therapy that allows the radiation dose to be delivered in a single gantry rotation …

Objective: Eye tracking in three dimensions is novel, but established descriptors derived
from two-dimensional (2D) studies are not transferable. We aimed to develop metrics …
