The Impact of Automated Image Alignment on Image Interpretation

Bradley J. Erickson, MD, PhD, Mayo Clinic, Rochester

Description:  The SCAR–supported R&D project, which is an analysis of the impact of automated image alignment on image interpretation, is described. We prospectively recruited 20 sequential CT or MR examinations that had comparison examinations for both neurological and non-neurological body parts (20 in each of the 2 categories). The ‘new’ exam and the ‘old’ exam were then distributed to several different reading centers. These were interpreted twice—once with the old examination registered to the new, and once without. The time to come to a decision about the examination and the level of certainty was measured. The findings of this multi-center trial are presented.

Learning Objectives:

  • Learn methods and limitations of automated image alignment

  • Learn the benefits and costs of automated image alignment in an environment simulating clinical practice
