Abstract: A system and method for processing medical images using relevancy rules, the relevancy rules used for determining relevant studies for a plurality of clinical software applications. The relevancy rules may apply to the various aspects of study, series, and/or image metadata to determine whether prior images should be processed in an assembled matched set by the clinical application. The relevancy rules may further apply to metadata generated by the clinical software applications in association with the study, series, and/or image data or associated metadata.

Abstract: A system and method for processing a plurality of medical images using a plurality of clinical applications. A current study is received by a first server, the current study having first image series metadata. The first server can determine, based on several different techniques, that the current study is in progress. The system and method generates an assembled study set comprising the current study that is processed using a clinical application, the current study having a first series and a second series.
