Diagnostic concordance between mobile interfaces and conventional workstations for emergency imaging assessment.

Introduction: Mobile devices and software are now available with sufficient computing power, speed and complexity to allow for real-time interpretation of radiology exams. In this paper, we perform a multivariable user study that investigates concordance of image-based diagnoses provided using mobile devices on the one hand and conventional workstations on the other hand.

Methods: We performed a between-subjects task-analysis using CT, MRI and radiography datasets.

A Case-Based Study with Radiologists Performing Diagnosis Tasks in Virtual Reality.

In radiology diagnosis, medical images are most often visualized slice by slice. At the same time, the visualization based on 3D volumetric rendering of the data is considered useful and has increased its field of application. In this work, we present a case-based study with 16 medical specialists to assess the diagnostic effectiveness of a Virtual Reality interface in fracture identification over 3D volumetric reconstructions.
