To Evaluate Performance of the DLS
Conditions
Brief summary
15 resident oncologists were conducted to evaluate the clinical efficacy of DLS in multicenter. They were 1:1 randomly asked to independently read the test images without the assistance of DLS software or with the assistance. Area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), sensitivity, and specificity of the DLS were calculated with professional graders as the reference standard.
Interventions
The multitask DLS with five algorithms detecting spine metastases and evaluate features (bone lesion quality, posterolateral involvement, and vertebral body collapse)
Sponsors
