"This book presents the technology evaluation methodology from the
point of view of radiological physics and contrasts the purely
physical evaluation of image quality with the determination of
diagnostic outcome through the study of observer performance. The
reader is taken through the arguments with concrete examples
illustrated by code in R, an open source statistical language." -
from the Foreword by Prof. Harold L. Kundel, Department of
Radiology, Perelman School of Medicine, University of Pennsylvania
"This book will benefit individuals interested in observer
performance evaluations in diagnostic medical imaging and provide
additional insights to those that have worked in the field for many
years." - Prof. Gary T. Barnes, Department of Radiology, University
of Alabama at Birmingham This book provides a complete introductory
overview of this growing field and its applications in medical
imaging, utilizing worked examples and exercises to demystify
statistics for readers of any background. It includes a tutorial on
the use of the open source, widely used R software, as well as
basic statistical background, before addressing localization tasks
common in medical imaging. The coverage includes a discussion of
study design basics and the use of the techniques in imaging system
optimization, memory effects in clinical interpretations,
predictions of clinical task performance, alternatives to ROC
analysis, and non-medical applications. Dev P. Chakraborty, PhD, is
a clinical diagnostic imaging physicist, certified by the American
Board of Radiology in Diagnostic Radiological Physics and Medical
Nuclear Physics. He has held faculty positions at the University of
Alabama at Birmingham, University of Pennsylvania, and most
recently at the University of Pittsburgh.
