### F.3.4 Example 4: Lung Nodule Detection in Chest Radiograph, Spatially Correlated With CT

The patient in Example 3 is called back for CT to confirm the Lung Nodule found in Example 3. The patient undergoes CT of the Thorax and the initial chest radiograph and CT slices are sent to a more comprehensive CAD device for processing. Findings are detected and analyses are performed that correlate findings from the two data sets. Portions of the prior CAD report (Example 3) are incorporated into this report.

Italicized entries (xxx) in the following table denote references to or by-value inclusion of content tree items reused from the prior Chest CAD SR instance (Example 3).

Node | Code Meaning of Concept Name | Code Meaning of Example Value | TID
--- | --- | --- | ---
1 | Chest CAD Report |  | TID 4100
1.1 | Language of Content Item and Descendants | English | TID 1204
1.2 | Image Library |  | TID 4100
1.3 | CAD Processing and Findings Summary | All algorithms succeeded; with findings | TID 4101
1.4 | Summary of Detections | Succeeded | TID 4100
1.5 | Summary of Analyses | Succeeded | TID 4100

While the Image Library contains references to content tree items reused from the prior Chest CAD SR instance, the images are actually used in the CAD analysis and are therefore not italicized as indicated above.
