1. A computer-implemented method of controlling image annotation, using at least one computer system, the method comprising using a processor for:

  • generating, by the at least one computer system, a plurality of image annotations of anatomic features identified within a digital representation of image data;

    presenting, by the at least one computer system, one or more image annotations among the plurality of image annotations of anatomic features to a user;

    receiving feedback from the user regarding the one or more image annotations;

    based on the received feedback, adjusting the digital representation of image data;

    generating, by the at least one computer system, alternative image annotations of anatomic features identified within the adjusted digital representation of image data;

    determining an association between the generated alternative image annotations;

    automatically categorizing the generated alternative image annotations to one or more groups based on the determined association;

    determining a representative annotation for each group of the one or more groups; and

    presenting the representative annotation of each group of the one or more groups for selection or correction by a user.
