Patent ID: 7633501

Claim:
A graphical user interface for displaying anatomical information of a body part obtained from a computed tomography (CT) scan thereof, and for displaying information from a computer-aided detection (CAD) algorithm operating on a CT data volume derived from the CT scan, comprising: a first display displaying a sequence of two-dimensional tomographic sections generated from said CT scans; a second display displaying a first view of the body part and including an indication of the position on the body part of the section then being displayed on the first display, said first display and said second display each including one or more suspicious region of interest (ROI) markers corresponding to suspicious locations of the body part identified by the CAD algorithm; and a navigational tool comprising a plurality of graphical identifiers, each graphical identifier associated respectively with one of said sequence of two-dimensional tomographic sections, said graphical identifiers being spatially arranged along said navigational tool in a manner associated with a spatial arrangement of said sequence of tomographic sections within the CT data volume; wherein each of said sequence of two-dimensional tomographic sections is displayed responsive to a user selection of an associated one of said graphical identifiers on said navigational tool.
