Abstract
A system and method for navigating an image series, the image series containing a number of substantially aligned planar images. First, the images of the image the image series are grouped into a number of subseries, the number of subseries being less than the number of substantially aligned planar images in the image series. A representative image series is generated by generating an image from each subseries. The representative image series is displayed. It is determined whether an image from the representative image series has been selected. If an image from the representative image series has been selected, then the subseries associated with the selected image is displayed.
