Pulmonary infiltrates following administration of paclitaxel.
TL;DR: This syndrome of transient pulmonary infiltrates did not reoccur in the two patients who were rechallenged with paclitaxel and the infiltrates resolved spontaneously in all the patients but one of them did receive steroid therapy.

TL;DR: Results indicate that reader variability is task dependent and larger than modality variability in detection of interstitial disease and use of the same cases interpreted with different modes is justifiable in many situations because of the high variability from readers.

TL;DR: Comparisons show that study methodology can significantly affect the results in ROC studies, particularly for abnormalities that may not be perceived as primary or important; the order in which abnormalities appear on a checklist report form may be important.

Selection of processing algorithms for digital image compression: A rank-order study
TL;DR: Non-ROC study designs that are highly sensitive to small differences among similar images can be used to select processing algorithms for digital image compression.

Multipoint rank-order study methodology: observer issues.
Jeffrey D. Towers,J. Michael Holbert,Cynthia A. Britton,Phillip Costello,Robert Sciulli,David Gur +5 more
TL;DR: Towers et al. as mentioned in this paper performed a multipoint rank-order experiment to evaluate variability in observers' sensitivity to small differences in image presentation and to assess observers' performance as a function of the type and number of tasks included.
