Claim 6:
7. A system for assisting in anomaly identification relating to fetal alcohol spectrum disorders (FASD), the system comprising:
a first processing device comprising:
a first processor;
a first memory; and
executed instructions stored on a non-transitory medium that when executed by the first processor cause the first processor to:
retrieve and/or generating a sequence of progressively changing images that depict morphing of at least:
a subject's upper lip (vermillion) between at least a first state representing an identification of a first facial anomaly relating to fetal alcohol syndrome (FAS) and a second state representing lack of the identification of the first facial anomaly; and/or
ridges running from the subject's nose to the subject's lip (philtrum) between at least a first state representing an identification of a second facial anomaly relating to fetal alcohol syndrome (FAS) and a second state representing a lack of the identification of the second facial anomaly;
wherein the number of images in the sequence is selected to provide a substantially continuous transition between the first and second states;
display the retrieved and/or generated images as the sequence on a display of the first processing device;
provide a user interface on the first processing device for a user to navigate the displayed sequence and make an image selection; and
determine a representative image selection based on the user's image selection; and

a second processing device in communication with said first processing device comprising:
a second processor;
a second memory; and
executed instructions stored on a non-transitory medium that when executed by the second processor cause the second processor to:
determine an identification or lack of identification of the first and/or second facial anomaly based on the determined representative image selection from the first processing device.
