Quickstart Guide for Annotators
===============================

Welcome to Datamint! This guide will get you started as an annotator. If you're reading this, you should have already been added to a project by a researcher.

As an annotator, you will need to look at medical scans and use your expertise to mark them up with specific annotations.

To start, go to https://app.datamint.io and sign into your account. If you do not have an account yet, go to your email and follow the instructions on the invite you recieved.

Once you sign in, select the project and the worklist. The worklist will open to a screen like this one:

.. image:: media/AnnotationScreen.png

Note that depending on the type of imaging you are working on, the interface may differ slightly.

You will be presented with the first image in the worklist. Once you've annotated it, press Done, and the system will save your annotations and show you the next image to annotate.

If you're uncertain about something and want to come back to the image later, you can press Skip. The system will save your work and show you the next image to annotate. Skipped images will be shown to you again after you've looked at all the other images in the list.

To learn more about the interface, see :doc:`annotationreference`.
