Clinical Trial Summary

The use of computed tomography (CT) imaging is rapidly increasing in healthcare. Despite physicians' growing reliance on radiological assessments, however, the reliability and accuracy of reads are highly variable. Inconsistencies may result from multiple factors.

The researchers hypothesize that the presence and quality of clinical information will affect radiologist's assessment of CT scans for the presence/absence of a ventral hernia.
