Claim One:
1. A method for presenting a plurality of medical imaging cases to a radiologist at a radiology review workstation, comprising: receiving for each of said plurality of medical imaging cases a set of CAD-computed metrics derived from an operation of a CAD processing algorithm thereon, said CAD processing algorithm detecting anatomical abnormalities in each of said plurality of medical imaging cases for presentation therewith at the radiology review workstation; receiving at least one input from the radiologist identifying at least one CAD-computed metric according to which a patient worklist identifying the plurality of medical imaging cases is to be sorted, wherein said identified at least one CAD-computed metric comprises at least one image-based feature as computed by said CAD processing algorithm for each of said plurality of medical imaging cases; sorting the patient worklist according to said identified at least one CAD-computed metric; and sequentially displaying to the radiologist the plurality of medical imaging cases according to their order of appearance in the sorted patient worklist; wherein said identified at least one CAD-computed metric includes an anatomical complexity metric, whereby said sorting the patient worklist comprises sorting the patient worklist according to said anatomical complexity metric.
