Popis: Item does not contain fulltext PURPOSE:: To assess the effect of computer-assisted detection (CAD) on diagnostic accuracy, reader confidence, and reading time when used as a concurrent reader for the detection of acute pulmonary embolism in computed tomography pulmonary angiography. MATERIALS AND METHODS:: In this institutional review board-approved retrospective study, 6 observers with varying experience evaluated 158 negative and 38 positive consecutive computed tomography pulmonary angiographies (mean patient age 60 y; 115 women) without and with CAD as a concurrent reader. Readers were asked to determine the presence of pulmonary embolism, assess their diagnostic confidence using a 5-point scale, and document their reading time. Results were compared with an independent standard established by 2 readers, and a third chest radiologist was consulted in case of discordant findings. RESULTS:: Using logistic regression for repeated measurements, we found a significant increase in readers' sensitivity (P
