Abstract
A method and computer system for screening of medical cases in which the computer system has a user interface which enables pre-programming of a sequence of images to be reviewed for each of a group of medical cases. The pre-programming is conducted by means of symbols or icons which are selectable by a user. The pre-programming of the sequence of images is done in a configuration phase of the computer system. During the screening procedure, the user can go from one image to the next by performing a single action input operation, such as, making a mouse click or pressing a next-step button. This has the advantage that the user can fully concentrate on reviewing the medical images without distraction.
