Abstract
A processor receives a selection of an image display mode via a user input device. The image display mode defines a number of medical images for display. The processor configures a surface of a touch panel user input device to define a plurality of fields. Each of the plurality of fields corresponds with a different one of the medical images. The processor receives an input, via the touch panel user input device, which selects one of the plurality of fields of the surface of the touch panel user input device and commands the processor to manipulate a medical image corresponding with the selected one of the plurality of fields. The processor manipulates at least the medical image corresponding with the selected one of the plurality of fields at one or more display devices based at least in part on the input.
