Methods: 467 cases of breast carcinoma proved by surgery and pathology were retrospectively analyzed. All the mammograms of the cases were reviewed by two radiologists working as a team and then analyzed by the CAD-system. The sensitivity for breast carcinoma detection (masses or calcification) was calculated respectively, and the results compared.
