Abstract

A medical workstation has been developed for the efficient display and analysis of large sets of digital cineradiographic images. Various features aid the clinician in quickly identifying and extracting the image information relevant for diagnosis: animated viewing of image frames, a digital magnifying glass for local image enlargement and enhancement, a special review queue for critical image frames, and task-oriented image processing. Double frame buffering and direct memory addressing ensure fast, artifact-free image display and transfer. Much freedom is provided for adapting the system to one's own preferences. A statistical analysis of extensive tests conducted by eight clinical expert reviewers is given.
