1. A computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) method performed at a processor, the method comprising:
- extracting at least one lesion feature value from a captured lesion image comprising at least one lesion;
receiving, at a user interface, at least one additional information comprising information needed to diagnose the at least one lesion based on the captured lesion image,wherein the user interface comprises;
a lesion image display area configured to display the captured lesion image, andan additional information input area configured to;
receive the at least one additional information,display at least one additional information field for selection by a user, andin response to one of the at least one additional information field being selected by the user, display at least one sub-field of the selected additional information field;
diagnosing the at least one lesion based on the extracted at least one lesion feature value and the received at least one additional information; and
displaying the captured lesion image,wherein the at least one additional information, that is based on the captured lesion image, affects a diagnosis of the at least one lesion.

Abstract
A computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) method includes extracting a lesion feature value of a lesion feature of a lesion from a captured lesion image; receiving additional information; and diagnosing the lesion based on a combination of the extracted lesion feature value and the received additional information.

10. A computer-aided (CAD) apparatus comprising:
-
at least one processor configured to extract at least one lesion feature value from a captured lesion image comprising at least one lesion; and an interface configured to receive at least one additional information comprising information about the at least one lesion based on the captured lesion image, wherein the interface comprises a user interface comprising; a lesion image display area configured to display the captured lesion image, and an additional information input area configured to receive the at least one additional information, display at least one additional information field for selection by a user, and in response to one of the at least one additional information field being selected by the user, display at least one sub-field of the selected additional information field, wherein the at least one processor is further configured to diagnose the at least one lesion based on the extracted at least one lesion feature value and the received at least one additional information, and wherein the at least one additional information, that is based on the captured lesion image, affects a diagnosis of the at least one lesion. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)

18. A method of generating a lesion diagnosis model, the method comprising:
-
extracting at least one lesion feature value from each of captured lesion images; receiving, by a user interface, at least one additional information comprising information about the at least one lesion for each of the captured lesion images, wherein the user interface comprises; a lesion image display area configured to display at least one of the captured lesion images, and an additional information input area configured to receive the at least one additional information, display at least one additional information field for selection by a user, and in response to one of the at least one additional information field being selected by the user, display at least one sub-field of the selected additional information field; generating a lesion diagnosis model based on at least one combination of the at least one lesion feature value and the at least one additional information, and at least one diagnosis result corresponding to the at least one combination; and storing the generated lesion diagnosis model in a database, wherein the at least one additional information, that is based on the captured lesion image, affects a diagnosis of the at least one lesion. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20, 21, 22)
