Abstract: The present disclosure pertains to computer-assisted search of image slices. In some embodiments, an image slice having a detected finding (and representing a cross section of at least a portion of an individual) may be determined. A search space may be reduce to a subset of image slices respectively representing a cross section corresponding to the cross section represented by the determined image slice. The search space reduction may comprise filtering a set of image slices based on the cross section represented by the determined image slice. Image slice information related to the determined image slice and related one or more image slices (of the image slices subset) may be obtained based on the search space reduction. A determination of whether indications of the detected finding exist in the image slices (of the image slices subset) may be effectuated based on the image slice information.

Abstract: A system includes a ranking engine (110) and a user interface (130). The ranking engine receives a list (114) for a patient which includes a plurality of occurrences (210) and computes a relevance score for each occurrence (210) in the list. The computed relevance score is according to a relevance scheme (116) that maps relevance scores from a lexicon controlling the list to each of the plurality of occurrences. The user interface (130) displays the list on a display device (137) of a local computing device (140) ordered by a presented computed relevance score that includes the computed relevance score. Each displayed occurrence of the plurality of occurrences includes a feedback indicator (136). The user interface receives feedback comprising an input for one displayed occurrence of the plurality of occurrences according to the feedback indicator which indicates the one displayed occurrence is to be displayed higher or lower in the list than a current position. The input is a binary indicator.

Abstract: A system and method are provided for enabling a user to annotate a medical image. A collection of key-value pairs is provided, in which a key represents an image-observable quantity and a value represents the value of the image-observable quantity. A collection of structured finding objects is provided, wherein each structured finding object represents a set of key-value pairs, each set of key-value pairs representing a different annotation of the medical image. The user is enabled to select one or more of the collection of key-value pairs, thereby obtaining a user-selected structured finding object which represents a preliminary annotation of the medical image by the user. At least one recommended structured finding object is selected by using the user-selected structured finding object as input to a probabilistic recommendation algorithm. Feedback is provided to the user on the basis of the recommended structured finding object. The annotation is well suited for, e.g.

The carrier phase monitoring may be activated or dis-activated based on the convergence level.
