Early detection of breast cancer: Overview of the evidence on computer-aided detection in mammography screening
Journal of Medical Imaging and Radiation Oncology (JMIRO), 05/27/09
Houssami N et al. - Although CAD can identify and prompt readers to missed cancers, the high number of false-positive prompts can have an adverse effect on clinical decision-making, and detracts from CAD's application in screening practice. Refinement in CAD algorithms, in combination with increasing implementation of digital mammography, may improve the potential use of CAD in mammography reading, but will require prospective evaluation.
