With the recent great advances in technology, the use of flat panel displays (FPD) is tending to increase. However, there is concern that the physical properties are not understood well enough by physicians to take advantage of the improved physical properties to assist them with diagnosis. Because displays of differing physical properties are being used in clinics, we have not seen enough research about the relationship between diagnostic ability and the physical properties of displays. The purpose of this study was to evaluate radiologists' performance in the diagnosis of nodules in chest radiographs with three kinds of flat panel displays : 3M-and 5M-pixel monochrome flat panel displays, and a 3M-pixel color flat panel display. Nine radiologists participated in this observer study. Sixty chest radiographs were used. Thirty-five images depicted malignant nodules, and 25 images were normal. We set for an 8-bit gray scale in advance. The radiologists' performance was evaluated with receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis by using a computer program (ROCKIT; Charles E. Metz, University of Chicago). Observer performance for the diagnosis of nodules in chest radiographs was not significantly different using 3M- and 5M-pixel monochrome, and 3M-pixel color flat panel displays. Further investigation of frequent spatial patterns requiring higher resolutions such as the interstitial infiltrate pattern in chest images and the microcalcifications in mammographs will be needed.
