ABSTRACT:
The disclosed method provides a two-dimensional display of an enhanced image of measurement data from a prescribed test (e.g., a medical test), which is adjusted to incorporate information relating to a known pretest probability that a particular condition is present. The enhancement adjusts a particular parameter of the two-dimensional image, such as gray level or hue, to facilitate a more accurate evaluation of the condition.
