Fig. 1 Flowchart shows results of computer-aided detection (CAD) and
prospective independent double reading of screen-film mammograms (SFM) and
full-field digital mammograms (FFDM) with soft-copy reading of 29 cases of
cancer (after exclusion of two cases) in baseline screening round.

Fig. 2 Flowchart shows results of computer-aided detection (CAD) and
prospective independent double reading of screen-film mammograms (SFM) and
full-field digital mammograms (FFDM) with soft-copy reading of 15 of 26 cases
of subsequent cancer visible in retrospect. Seven cases of cancer with
true-positive score at baseline interpretation session were dismissed at
consensus conference.
