Abstract
First and second predictors are used to identify regions of interest in a medical image. The first predictor is configured to maximize precision in identifying one or more abnormalities that it was trained to recognize, or at least to have greater precision than the second predictor. The second predictor is configured or selected to maximize sensitivity (i.e., recall) in identifying one or more abnormalities that it was trained to recognize, or at least to have greater sensitivity than the first predictor. The predictions of the first and second predictors may be used to create a digital map image showing the locations of regions of interest identified by the first and second predictors. Alternatively or in addition, the predictions may be used to rank images or image sets in terms of review priority.
