A computer-implemented method of facilitating neural network image analysis involves receiving signals representing a set of images, causing at least one neural network function to be applied to the set of images to determine at least one property confidence distribution parameter, and causing a cumulative distribution function defined at least in part by the at least one property confidence distribution parameter to be applied to a plurality of ranges, each range associated with a respective property that may be associated with the set of images, to determine a plurality of property confidences, each of the property confidences representing a confidence that the set of images should be associated with a respective one of the properties. Other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are disclosed.

A PACS viewer and an associated method and computer program product are provided for identifying patient orientation. With respect to a PACS viewer, the PACS viewer includes processing circuitry configured to register an image onto a template. The processing circuitry is also configured to determine a representative seed point within each of the left and right lungs as represented by the image. The processing circuitry is further configured to apply an active contour model to each of the left and right lungs to generate a binary image of the left and right lungs. In this regard, the processing circuitry is configured to apply the active contour model by initializing the active contour model with a mask constructed using the representative seed points. Further, the processing circuitry is configured to detect at least one feature from the binary image to permit identification of the left and right lungs.
