Breast image analysis systems and computer-implemented method for snip-triggered digital image report generation. An image review workstation of breast image analysis system presents an interactive user interface including a currently displayed image to a user through a display. Image review station receives user input selecting a snipping application of interactive user interface and activating a snipping application. A portion of currently displayed image is selected by execution of snipping application, and in response, image review workstation accesses a data store of acquired image files, identifies an acquired image file associated with currently displayed image, and generates a digital image report comprising the selected portion of the currently displayed image and selected metadata of the identified acquired image file and may also include user annotations such as spoken remarks and measurements and system generated data.

Snip-triggered digital image report generation

Systems and methods for generating and using a customized hanging protocol for the display of medical images. The methods may include receiving an indication to create a first hanging step of the hanging protocol, displaying a workspace having a plurality of viewports for displaying medical images, and displaying a plurality of building blocks corresponding to different types of medical images. The method may also include receiving a selection of a first building block in the plurality of building blocks, wherein the first building block corresponds to a first type of medical image, and receiving an indication of a location in the workspace for the first building block to be placed. Based on the indication of the location in the workspace for the first building block, one or more of the plurality of viewports is filled with the first building block.

Customizable multimodality image hanging protocols

Methods, systems and computer program products for controlling display of different types of medical images and providing touchscreen interfaces for display on a mobile communication device and associated with different image types, e.g., different imaging modalities or different view modes. Detection of a multi-finger tap on the screen of the mobile communication device while viewing a first touchscreen interface for an image type invokes a second or auxiliary touchscreen interface for that image type having a subset of interface elements of the first touchscreen interface.
