Abstract

The simple but powerful idea of annotating radiological images by pointing out and naming can be exploited for multimedia communication and teaching purposes. In this paper we describe a family of Unix workstation-based demonstrators to implement different facets of this paradigm in a radiology environment. We provide technical details on each demonstrator, and discuss results from validation experiments.
