    CAD found 32 of the 38 previously missed cancers (84% sensitivity), with false-positive【C8】________ of 1.6 per section.
    Although CAD improved detection of lung cancer, it won’t replace radiologists, said Sgmuel G. Armato, PhD, lead author of the study. "The computer is not perfect," Armato said. "It will miss some cancers and call some things cancer that【C9】________ . The radiologists can identify normal anatomy that the computer may【C10】________ something suspicious.
