Mammography Features

Overview​

OmegaAI Image Viewer is equipped with specialized features designed to enhance the viewing and analysis of mammography studies. This section provides a detailed overview of these features, including image synchronization, annotations, hanging protocols, and CAD object detection.

1

Image Synchronization and Mirroring​

The image viewer allows for side-by-side comparison of mammography images from different laterality'right and left. This functionality is enhanced by a synchronization feature that mirrors movements across the two sides. This means that when you adjust the view on one side, the corresponding area on the opposite side is adjusted in a mirrored fashion, facilitating easier comparison of similar areas across different images.

Enhanced Annotations​

During mammography viewing, annotations and image views are displayed prominently. The viewer automatically increases the font size of overlay annotations to improve readability. This is useful when annotations contain critical information about the mammography study.

Mammography Hanging Protocols​

Users can select from 10 predefined mammography hanging protocols, each tailored to the types of views available in the study. These protocols help streamline the workflow by automatically organizing the images according to the predefined stages of viewing.

2

Auto-Rotation and Alignment​

The viewer possesses the capability to auto-rotate images based on the laterality information contained within the DICOM metadata. This ensures that images are always presented in the correct orientation. Additionally, overlay alignments are adjusted automatically depending on the image's laterality; for instance, overlays on right-laterality images are aligned to the left, and vice versa.

CAD Object Notification​

When reviewing mammography images, if a CAD (Computer-Aided Detection) object is present, the system notifies the user by displaying a brief message at the lower part of the viewport. This feature helps in quickly identifying significant findings.

CAD Object Display Controls​

Within the hanging protocols, users have the option to define visibility settings for CAD objects. These settings determine whether CAD objects should be visible at a specific stage or protocol. Furthermore, CAD objects can be toggled on and off directly from the viewport menu, providing users with flexibility in how they review and analyze images.

Measurement Panel and CAD Detection​

The measurement panel updates to display an entry whenever a CAD object is detected in the active viewport. This feature assists in the quantitative analysis of the findings and ensures that all detected objects are accounted for during the study review.
