Computer-aided detection/diagnosis (CAD) is emerging as an innovative interdisciplinary technologyfor medical service. The traditional concept of automated computer diagnosis is encountered with a significant barrier because computerized medical systems cannot fully replace human doctors with the comparable level of performance. By contrast, CAD is becoming widely adopted in clinical work because it offers complementary computing power to enhance doctor's competence for medical examination. 4 stateof-the-art CAD technologies were presented in the special session of medical image processing and CAD at ICCH 2012 as reported in this short paper. Those technologies will be briefly introduced here to show the current trend of development of CAD and to demonstrate how CAD helps in medical care.
