Abstract
A user interface for facilitating the input of films into a computer-aided diagnosis system is disclosed.

A touch sensitive display screen is provided to display status information to and receive instructions from an operator. The display screen displays miniature images of the films having color-coded borders so that the operator monitors the processing of the films. The interface also includes a bar code reader and allow the operator to conduct procedures for testing the scanner.
