A method and system that provides users with additional information
regarding imagery analyzed by computer-aided detection (CAD) systems is
described. A user selects a region of the analyzed imagery. Information
is then derived from computational measurements of the region obtained
during CAD processing. The region selected by the user does not
necessarily have to include a displayed CAD system detection. The
information includes a description of the computational measurement and
the value of the measurement, both of which are provided in clinically
relevant terms.
