Abstract

Richard M Fleming, Matthew R Fleming, Tapan K Chaudhuri, William C Dooley

Until quite recently, diagnostic imaging has relied upon “qualitative” imaging limited by the ability to define disease as either present or absent. The first marker that you are using a “qualitative” test is a discussion of sensitivity, the ability to find disease when present and specificity, the ability to exclude disease when absent [1-9]. This yes/no approach to medicine reflects the limitations qualitatively imposed upon us despite the understanding that tissues don’t simply exist in either a “normal” or “diseased” state but rather a transition occurs as the genetic and environmental factors influencing tissues results in transitional changes, transitional changes which can now be fully appreciated and measured [1-9].
