  1. DLD Deep learning-based nodule detection, LLF Lesion localization fraction
  2. *p < 0.05 was regarded as statistically significant. For group-averaged comparison, corrected p-values are presented (multiplied by 4). Denominator for the LLF calculation corresponds to the total number of true lesions multiplied by the number of readers in the respective group
