Electronic data for presenting images to teach radiology diagnosis are
stored on a computer readable storage medium. The stored data includes an
image table that includes indexed radiology images to be displayed; a
frame table that includes frame entries, each for displaying a frame in a
sequence of frames to be displayed and comprising a time indicator
indicating a time to display the frame in the sequence, and display state
data indicating a display state of one of the radiology images to be
displayed in the frame; at least one annotation table including data
defining teaching annotations to be superimposed on at least one
radiology image. Each frame entry is associated with a radiology image
and each annotation table is associated with a frame entry. An
encoder/decoder is provided for encoding and storing the data in a file
and for decoding and presenting images formed from the data.
