Abstract
A system for assigning concepts to a medical image includes a visual feature module and a tagging module. The visual feature module is configured to obtain an image feature vector from the medical image. The tagging module is configured to apply a machine-learned algorithm to the image feature vector to assign a set of concepts to the image. The system may also include a text report generator that is configured to generate a written report describing the medical image based on the set of concepts assigned to the medical image.
