- Abstract
-
Digitalisering binnen de radiologie heeft de nodige verbeteringen opgeleverd, onder andere voor de longfoto. Vroege stadia van longkanker en kleine uitzaaiingen naar de longen worden geregeld gemist op scans, maar computerprogramma’s kunnen deze gemiste afwijkingen soms wel detecteren. De programma’s markeren echter ook normale structuren; dat kan leiden tot fout-positieven. Diederick De Boo concentreerde zich op de interpretatie van resultaten van computerprogramma’s en op de mogelijkheid de radioloog hierin te trainen.
