Knowledge-based computer-assisted diagnosis of chest radiographs.
The computer can produce structured radiologic content which can potentially keep the radiologists current in radiology literature. As the radiologist continues to make observations and uses the available information, he has at his fingertips with the computer the current information to offer appropriate differential diagnosis and suggest appropriate patient follow up. The computer allows the radiologist to learn and grow rather than guess and hope.
