Abstract
A user interface for facilitating a computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) includes an image input device that receives and scans the multiple images, and a film feeder that transports films from a film developer to the scanner. A multi-image identification input device uses bar code reading, numeric keypad, keyboard, network, and/or mouse to enter multiple image identification prior to image scanning. A display includes an image identification area, case processing status area, and a CAD detection and user modification area. The user can edit CAD results—accept, remove—and can add new diagnosis results to create a new composite diagnosis result.
