A method is provided for detecting a corresponding region of interest in digital medical images, the method including receiving a plurality of digital images including a primary image, at least one of the images being a projective image, identifying anatomical landmarks and structures within each of the images and correlating the images based on the identified anatomical landmarks and structures identifying a location of interest in the primary image, and automatically identifying a region of interest in the rest of the images, the region of interest corresponding to the identified location of interest in the primary image.

Systems and methods for supporting a diagnostic workflow from a computer system are disclosed herein. In accordance with one implementation, a set of pre-identified anatomical landmarks associated with one or more structures of interest within one or more medical images are presented to a user. In response to a user input selecting at least one or more regions of interest including one or more of the pre-identified anatomical landmarks, the user is automatically navigated to the selected region of interest. In another implementation, a second user input selecting one or more measurement tools is received. An evaluation may be automatically determined based on one or more of the set of anatomical landmarks in response to the second user input.

Systems and methods for viewing and analyzing anatomical structures

A method for synchronizing patient data between at least two independent applications in a distributed environment includes capturing screen information from a display window of a first application client that is displaying a medical image of a patient, analyzing the screen information captured from the first application client display to extract patient identifying information, and synchronizing a display of information of the patient on a second application system display screen with the first application display window using the extracted patient identification information.

System and method for patient synchronization between independent applications in a distributed environment

A system and method for linking volumes of interest (VOIs) across timepoints are provided. The method comprises: loading an image dataset of a first timepoint and an image dataset of a second timepoint; registering the image dataset of the first timepoint and the image dataset of the second timepoint; displaying the image dataset of the first timepoint and the image dataset of the second timepoint; selecting a VOI in the image dataset of the first timepoint and the image dataset of the second timepoint; and linking the VOIs in the image dataset of the first timepoint and the image dataset of the second timepoint.

System and method for linking VOIs across timepoints for analysis of disease progression or response to therapy

A method for lesion detection includes acquiring pre-therapy medical image data from a first modality. Post-therapy medical image data is acquired from a second modality. A transformation matrix for transforming from an image space of the first modality to an image space of the second modality is calculated. A volume of interest is defined from the medical image data of the first modality. The volume of interest includes one or more lesions. The volume of interest is automatically copied to the medical image data of the second modality using the calculated transformation matrix. Treatment is directed to the lesion using the medical image data of the second modality including the copied volume of interest data.

Lesion quantification and tracking using multiple modalities

A system and method for piecewise registration of timepoints are provided. The method comprises: selecting an image dataset of a first or second timepoint to be registered; defining a sub-volume in the selected image dataset; and registering the sub-volume with a whole-volume of the unselected image dataset.

System and method for piecewise registration of timepoints

A system and method for monitoring disease progression or response to therapy using multi-modal visualization are provided. The method comprises: selecting a first image dataset of a first timepoint; loading the first image dataset of the first timepoint; selecting a second image dataset of a second timepoint; loading the second image dataset of the second timepoint; registering the first image dataset of the first timepoint and the second image dataset of the second timepoint; and displaying the first image dataset of the first timepoint and the second image dataset of the second timepoint.
