Abstract
A computer-assisted system was devised to provide objective measurements of the diagnostic efficacy of CT [computed tomography] of the [human] body. The diagnostic efficacy of CT is compared with that of UGI [upper gastro-intestinal] examinations for 574 patients. The potential usefulness of this system in cost effectiveness studies, diagnostic efficacy studies and clinical efficacy studies is examined.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
