Ninety-eight digital radiographs of a chest phantom with simulated tumors in the mediastinum and left lung and a pneumothorax-simulation in the right hemithorax were compared with the corresponding examinations saved on optical disk and viewed on a 1,000-line monitor. The examinations were reviewed by 7 radiologists with different experience, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were constructed. There was no significant difference between the hard-copy and the monitor results. A significant interobserver difference was seen only with the low attenuating 6 mm "tumor" and then only between the observer with the highest and the one with the lowest scores.
