Information needs of users in such circumstances, either for clinical or research activities, make the role of powerful medical image search engines more significant. In this paper, a text-based multi-dimensional medical image indexing technique is proposed in which correlation of the features-usages (according to the user's queries) is considered to provide an off-the content indexing while taking users' interestingness into account.
