Claim One:
1. A method for displaying computer-aided detection (CAD) results associated with a three-dimensional medical image volume, comprising: receiving a plurality of slice images representative of respective slices of the three-dimensional medical image volume; receiving CAD information identifying a detection-containing one of said slice images and further identifying a coordinate location at which a CAD detection marker is to be displayed thereon; and interactively displaying said slice images to a user including allowing the user to sequentially page through an ordered sequence of said slice images, said ordered sequence including said detection-containing slice image, said ordered sequence further including at least one slice image nearby said detection-containing slice image with respect to said ordered sequence, said nearby slice image not being detection-containing with respect to said identified coordinate location, wherein said interactively displaying further comprises: when displaying said detection-containing slice image, displaying thereon said CAD detection marker at said identified coordinate location; and when displaying said nearby slice image, displaying thereon a CAD proximity marker at said identified coordinate location, said CAD proximity marker being of noticeably different size than said CAD detection marker to draw user attention to the identified coordinate location of the detection-containing slice image when sequentially paging therethrough.
