Predicting Readers' Diagnostic Accuracy with a New CAD Algorithm

Using one clinical study as a test case, it is shown that the modeling approach is feasible. More testing of the approach is needed to determine if and under what circumstances it can be used as an alternative to a full-scale MRMC study. Meanwhile, the approach can be used to determine if a new CAD algorithm is likely to improve readers' accuracy before embarking on a full-scale MRMC study.
