5. Graphical interface and Workflows
A prototype of a graphical interface is provided to browse and search for patient information
This interface provides the main functionality and can be easily customized.
The graphical interface of the MDM can be interfaced with applications.
This interface provides an easy way to invoke a workflow engine:
The data is graphically selected.
The result of the computation is visualized.
With the MDM, the medical image analysis community can share their images on the grid.
Entry point to retrieve target data to be compute throw workflow engine.
The MDM can provide medical image to a workflow engine and visualize the result of the computation.
