Method for associating at least two different medical findings with each other, each of the findings being based on a characteristic area in a different set of images, the method comprising the steps of: - determining, in each of the different sets of images, the location of at least one anatomical landmark and in particular the closest anatomical landmarks in relation to the respective characteristic area, wherein the set of images refer to one patient and include a current study and at least one prior study and wherein the set of images are stored in memory, - storing, for each of the at last two findings, a reference with a distance and a direction to the closest anatomical landmarks together with the respective finding; - uploading the reference with the respective finding from a visualization system to a central registry remote from the visualization system; - wherein the reference together with the respective finding are stored by the central registry; - wherein the pairs of associated findings are identified by the central registry - identifying, among the at least two findings, pairs of associated findings based on a comparison of the respective references to the at least one anatomical landmark - calculating, by the central registry, for each pair of findings a probability indicative of a medical relation of the two findings within the respective pair of findings and wherein the central registry works as a central hub for long term storage and distribution of findings and representative images for making the findings available, by the central registry, for retrieval by the visualization system. - determining, in each of the different sets of images, the location of at least one anatomical landmark and in particular the closest anatomical landmarks in relation to the respective characteristic area, wherein the set of images refer to one patient and include a current study and at least one prior study and wherein the set of images are stored in memory, - storing, for each of the at last two findings, a reference with a distance and a direction to the closest anatomical landmarks together with the respective finding; - uploading the reference with the respective finding from a visualization system to a central registry remote from the visualization system; - wherein the reference together with the respective finding are stored by the central registry; - wherein the pairs of associated findings are identified by the central registry - wherein the reference together with the respective finding are stored by the central registry; - wherein the pairs of associated findings are identified by the central registry - identifying, among the at least two findings, pairs of associated findings based on a comparison of the respective references to the at least one anatomical landmark - calculating, by the central registry, for each pair of findings a probability indicative of a medical relation of the two findings within the respective pair of findings and wherein the central registry works as a central hub for long term storage and distribution of findings and representative images for making the findings available, by the central registry, for retrieval by the visualization system.
