Abstract

A method and system for analyzing and retrieving tissue abnormality tracking data, providing a tool for a radiologist that includes a report summarizing the statistical frequency of diagnosed patients, both locally and nationally, with tissue region-of-interest classifications similar to the tissue images taken of the anatomy of an individual patient. In one embodiment, a computer aided diagnostic program can suggest region-of-interest attributes and classifications for user review. In one embodiment, user can select a seed area for computer aided diagnostic program analysis, the CAD analysis can suggest region-of-interest attributes and classifications. In yet another embodiment, the region-of-interest abnormality attributes suggested by the computer aided diagnostic program can be stored and compared with the user selected abnormality attributes and classifications. In one embodiment the images are of human breast tissue.
