Problems solved by technology

[0006] For reasons of safety technology, it is therefore not possible to provide the usual and useful copy and paste functions, known for example from text processing programs, also within the context of clinical medicine, because with these technologies it is not possible to comply with medical Data Protection Standards

Embodiment Construction

[0062] like in figure 1 Image data is to be transferred from the source application Q to the target application Z as shown in . The source application Q runs on the first device and the target application Z runs on the second device, wherein the device G exchanges data over the network.

[0063] This also applies to the well-known copy and paste commands. In contrast to the known methods, the invention is characterized in that the data to be transmitted contains image data BD and also data to be kept secret, to be protected or to be secured (so-called protected health information, PHI data for short), This is indicated by the reference sign P in the figures. PHI data may exist in different formats, preferably in DICOM format and typically contain image data related to a patient's health status (datasets related to treatment, diagnosis, treatment, data sets related to payers, etc.). PHI data P always contains medical content.

[0064] If a data set with a PHI segment P is n...

Abstract

A transfer method, a system and a product are disclosed for transferring security-critical medical image data records (BD) with PHI sections from a source application (Q) to a destination application (Z). The method accesses a PKI infrastructure that provides a user-specific key for each user. Following detection of a copy command for at least one image data record (BDa) in the source application, a data convolute is produced, including an anonymized and an encrypted image data record (BDkey), which are forwarded to a trader module (Tr) and / or a memory module (S). After a pasted command is detected, the key is used to access the clipboard (C) and / or the memory module in order to decrypt the image data record from the encrypted image data record and to paste it (for a secure destination application), and / or to access the anonymized image data record and to paste it (for a nonsecure destination application).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention is in the fields of medical technology and information technology, and in particular relates to a method for copying and possibly pasting security-critical image content into the same or another application, also Can be implemented on different application devices. Background technique [0002] Especially in the medical context, processing is increasingly carried out by means of data processing devices or on the basis of computers. A number of different applications are provided, for example, for performing surgical robotically controlled procedures, for diagnosis, for data archiving, and the like. In the context of imaging medicine, acquired image data must be processed and stored. For this, it is beneficial to copy individual image content or the entire image from the application and paste it again in another location. [0003] For this purpose, the prior art resorts to a short-term memory (so-called clipboard) in which the content t...
