title: Some effects of method on the measured conspicuity of chest lesions.
abstract: Both the magnitude and the precision of the conspicuity of a series of solitary chest nodules depends on the number and spacing of the measurement points. Observer accuracy in detecting 1.0 cm and 1.5 cm psuedo chest lesions does not correlate well with conspicuity.
