A computer-aided diagnostic method and system provide image annotation information
that can include an assessment of the probability, likelihood or predictive value
of detected or identified suspected abnormalities as an additional aid to the radiologist.
More specifically, probability values, in numerical form and/or analog form, are
added to the locational markers of the detected and suspected abnormalities. The
task of a physician using such a system as disclosed is believed to be made easier
by displaying markers representing different regions of interest.
