Abstract: Purpose. To evaluate how the specificity and sensitivity of computer-aided detection (CADe) algorithm outputs affected radiologists' diagnostic performances, the authors studied the effects of 25 simulated CADe algorithms with various sensitivities and specificities (from 60% to 100%). Methods. Six novice radiologists read 200 images that were produced by computer and randomly displayed on CRT, and their detection performances were evaluated with receiver operating characteristic analysis. Results. There were significant differences in performance among CADe types (p
