Performance benchmarks for screening mammography.
PURPOSE To retrospectively evaluate the range of performance outcomes of the radiologist in an audit of screening mammography by using a representative sample of U.S. radiologists to allow development of performance benchmarks for screening mammography. MATERIALS AND METHODS Institutional review board approval was obtained, and study was HIPAA compliant. Informed consent was or was not obtain...

PURPOSE To prospectively determine the interpretation time associated with computer-aided detection (CAD) and to analyze how CAD affected radiologists' decisions and their level of confidence in their interpretations of digital screening mammograms. MATERIALS AND METHODS An Institutional Review Board exemption was obtained, and patient consent was waived in this HIPAA compliant study. The par...
متن کاملAccuracy of screening mammography interpretation by characteristics of radiologists.
BACKGROUND Radiologists differ in their ability to interpret screening mammograms accurately. We investigated the relationship of radiologist characteristics to actual performance from 1996 to 2001. METHODS Screening mammograms (n = 469,512) interpreted by 124 radiologists were linked to cancer outcome data. The radiologists completed a survey that included questions on demographics, malpract...
متن کاملPerformance assessment for radiologists interpreting screening mammography.
When interpreting screening mammograms radiologists decide whether suspicious abnormalities exist that warrant the recall of the patient for further testing. Previous work has found significant differences in interpretation among radiologists; their false-positive and false-negative rates have been shown to vary widely. Performance assessments of individual radiologists have been mandated by th...
متن کاملRe: Accuracy of screening mammography interpretation by characteristics of radiologists.
I enjoyed the excellent study by Barlow et al. ( 1 ), demonstrating that there is no evidence that greater volume or experience at interpreting mammograms is associated with better performance. The common wisdom has always been contrary to these results. In fact, the Mammography Quality Standards Act (MQSA) contains at least two requirements based on the dogma that increasing volume and experie...
