Abstract
A software system and database for computer-aided diagnosis with thin-section computed tomographic (CT) images of the chest was designed and implemented. When presented with an unknown query image, the system uses pattern recognition to retrieve visually similar images with known diagnoses from the database. A preliminary validation trial was conducted with 11 volunteers who were asked to select the best diagnosis for a series of test images, with and without software assistance. The percentage of correct answers increased from 29% to 62% with computer assistance. This finding suggests that this system may be useful for computer-assisted diagnosis.
