Claim 11:
12. A computer-assisted method for assisting in anomaly identification relating to a dysmorphology analysis comprising the method of claim 1 and comprising:
retrieving and/or generating a sequence of progressively changing images that depict morphing of at least:
a subject's first physical feature, between at least a first state representing an identification of a first anomaly relating to a dysmorphology and a second state representing lack of the identification of the first anomaly; and/or a subject's second physical feature, between at least a first state representing an identification of a second anomaly relating to the dysmorphology and a second state representing a lack of the identification of the second anomaly;
wherein the number of images in the sequence is selected to provide a substantially continuous transition between the first and second states;
displaying the retrieved and/or generated images as the sequence on a display of a processing device;
providing a user interface on the processing device for a user to navigate the displayed sequence and make an image selection;
determining a representative image selection based on the user's image selection;
transmitting the representative image selection to the additional processing device; and
receiving a determined identification or lack of identification of the first and/or second anomaly from the additional processing device based on the transmitted representative image; and
displaying the determined identification or lack of identification of the first and/or second anomaly.
