Article Synopsis
- Doctors need feedback on how they are doing to keep learning and improve patient care.
- Giving feedback can be hard for both doctors and the people giving it, and often, there's no reward for getting better.
- Research shows that sharing performance data helps doctors change for the better, but we still need to figure out if there should be penalties for doctors who don't do well in some areas, like mammography.

Article Synopsis
- This study wanted to see how well radiologists can find cancer on mammograms, especially when they use computer help called CADe.
- They looked at 300 mammogram images, with some cases where cancer was missed, and some where the doctors thought everything was fine.
- The results showed that using CADe helped radiologists be more accurate in finding cancer, with a 10% increase in sensitivity, but many missed computer suggestions that could have helped them find cancer more effectively.
