Improved chest disease detection with scanning equalization radiography

JC Wandtke and DB Plewes

The efficacy of chest disease detection with scanning equalization radiography (SER) was evaluated in a clinical study of 95 patients: 51 normals and 44 with abnormal chest radiographs. A conventional and an SER image of each patient were interpreted independently by four radiologists. The increased numbers of true positives (3%) and true negatives (9%) when the SER images were interpreted were statistically significant. There was also a reduced number of false positives (7%) with SER. This improved disease detection was noted by each of the radiologists and led to more frequent agreement (11%) of the correct interpretation among the radiologists.
