Abstract
Methods and systems for automatically determining image characteristics serving as a basis for a diagnosis associated with an image study type. One system includes a server including an electronic processor and an interface for communicating with at least one data source. The electronic processor is configured to receive an image study from the at least one data source over the interface. The image study being of the image study type and including a plurality of images. The electronic processor is also configured to determine an image characteristic for each of the plurality of images and determine whether each of the plurality of images was used to establish a diagnosis. The electronic processor is also configured to store the image characteristic for each of the plurality of images and an indicator of whether each of the plurality of images was used to establish the diagnosis in a data structure.
