Multimodality imaging of the diagnostic patient: The efficacy of diagnostic imaging
Tanya W Moseley
University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, USA
In this presentation, Dr Moseley considers the work of Fryback and Thornbury and challenges radiologists to rethink their
contribution to diagnostic workup of patients. She uses Fryback and Thornbury’s hierarchal model of efficacy to shed new
light on the technical quality of images; the interpretation of imaging with regards to diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity, and
specificity; diagnostic thinking; patient care management planning; patient outcomes; and societal costs and benefits.
