A saliency mapping method includes displaying video clip imagery of an organ in a display of a computer and submitting the imagery to a neural network trained to produce a probability of an existence of a physical feature of the organ. In response, the probability is received along with a pixel-wise mapping of dispositive pixels in the imagery resulting in the probability. Variations of the imagery are then repeatedly resubmitted to the neural network, each including a change to one or more of the pixels in the imagery. Thereafter, for each resubmission, a change is measured in the probability and then correlated to the changed pixels. Finally, a graphical indicator is overlain on the display of the imagery corresponding to each of the pixels determined through the repeated resubmission to be dispositive based upon a threshold measured change in probability.
