Abstract
A mid-protocol evaluation system is operable to receive a set of medical scans corresponding to a proper subset of a plurality of sequence types in a medical scan protocol captured for a patient. Abnormality data is generated by performing an inference function on the set of medical scans, where the inference function utilizes a computer vision model trained on a plurality of medical scans corresponding to the subset of the plurality of sequence types. A confidence score for the abnormality data is calculated, and additional sequence necessity data is generated for transmission to a client device for display via a display device. The additional sequence necessity data indicates at least one additional medical scan is necessary when the confidence score compares unfavorably to a confidence score threshold. The additional sequence necessity data indicates no further medical scans are necessary when the confidence score compares favorably to the confidence score threshold.
