The electronic processor is configured to submit at least a portion of the image study to a cognitive system, the cognitive system configured to analyze the image study using a model developed using machine learning, receive, from the cognitive system, a BI-RADS classification assigned to the image study using the model, and automatically triage the image study based on the classification assigned to the image study by the cognitive system.
