The Image Tagging Interface A 2-D X-ray image is read, and then notes are entered into the radiologist’s report
<feature type="Ellipse" label="Tumor"> <ellipse> <xCenter>277</xCenter> <yCenter>278</yCenter> <xRadius>44</xRadius> <yRadius>34</yRadius> </ellipse> </feature> Instead, a 3-D image can be annotated by the radiologist with searchable tags, so the notes can be integrated with the image in a relational database system.
