Abstract: A mammography information system (“MIS”) including voice command and audio feedback capabilities. A radiologist using the MIS can navigate a MIS application using voice command, thus enabling a “heads-up” and “hands free” environment for the radiologist and minimizing the amount of time required for reading mammograms. The MIS can include an audio playback feature enabling a radiologist to confirm each of the settings or variables included on the various screens while looking at an image without looking at the monitor.

Abstract: A smart destination image scanning and routing system and a method of routing digital mammogram images. The system and method can include a configuration editor that utilizes a graphical user interface (“GUI”) through which a user can quickly and easily turn image destinations on or off by creating criteria for each destination, thus dictating the default for circumstances under which the destinations will receive the images. Users therefore need not open and manually edit the code in a configuration file to route and reroute images.

Abstract: A device for reading x-rays including mechanism for transporting a plurality of x-rays to and from a x-ray reading station; the transporting mechanism including a web and mechanism for securing a plurality of x-ray films to the web; the plurality of x-ray films may be spaced one from another along the web; the device including mechanism for controlling the movement of the web to sequentially transport the x-ray films to the reading station; mechanism for sensing the web and overlying x-ray film to identify the location of each x-ray film; sensing mechanism being disposed upstream of the x-ray reading station; mechanism for activating light sources behind the x-ray film and avoiding activating light sources behind the web portions not having overlying x-ray film; light activating mechanism disposed at the x-ray reading station whereby light is passed through said x-ray film and light is not passed through the web not having overlying x-ray film.
