Introduction

The caBIG® Annotation and Image Markup (AIM) project defines an information model and software tools to capture and create image annotations and markups using well-defined common data elements and controlled terminologies. The current release of the AIM version 3.0.2 model has an AIM C++ library. The library is a reusable component that implements the AIM 3.0.2 information model. The AIM C++ library is part of the AIM C++ Toolkit, which also includes the model, documentation, and examples.

The AIM model enhances interoperability and information exchange between imaging and health information systems. Annotations stored in a computable model such as AIM can be queried not only to find images containing similar image content but also to correlate human image observations with other biomedical data.
