Abstract
The present invention provides a computer-readable storage medium including a set of instructions for a computer. The instructions include an access routine, a tracking routine, and a modifying routine. The access routine is configured to communicate a default image processing workflow between a network server and a display workstation. The default image processing workflow includes at least one default image processing step for preparing at least one image for presentation to a user. The tracking routine is configured to monitor a selection of at least one additional image processing step to be applied to the image. The modifying routine is configured to modify the default workflow to alter the default workflow and/or add the at least one additional image processing step to the default image processing workflow.
