Embodiment Construction

[0089] figure 1 The system 1 of the invention is depicted for performing at least one medical imaging procedure according to an embodiment of the invention. The system is suitable for example as reference Figure 5A method of performing the invention according to one or more embodiments is further described. The system includes an interface unit 20 in the form of a reading workstation. The system 1 also comprises a computing unit 30 in the form of a processor comprising several subunits related to carrying out the method of the invention. The interface unit 20 includes an output unit 21 and an input unit 22 . The output unit is realized as a display screen, preferably as a 5k display screen, which provides high resolution and thus enables visual reading of medical images eg in radiology. However, any other display is possible as long as it complies with the resolution and other visualization requirements, such as color fidelity, that are set for displaying medical images f...

Abstract

The invention relates to integrated medical image visualization and exploration. The invention relates to a system for supporting evaluation of a medical image data set. The system comprises an interface unit configured to- provide a display of a medical image data set to a user,- visualize an evaluation tool wherein the evaluation tool is adapted- to be movably arranged in the displayed image data set, and- to provide at least two evaluation functions with respect to the displayed image data set,- visualize at least one result of an evaluation function- receive user input relating to- navigating the evaluation tool in the medical image data set to a region of interest, and- selecting at least one of the evaluation functions,The system further comprises a computing unit configured to- process the user input to- navigate the evaluation tool in the medical image data set to the region of interest,- perform the at least one evaluation function,wherein performing the at least one evaluation function comprises accounting for image data within the region of interest, and- generate a visualization of at least one result of the evaluation function,wherein the at least one result is adaptedto be visualized as an overlay to the displayed image data set and / or evaluation tool.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to methods and systems for visualization and exploration of medical images, such as computed tomography or magnetic resonance tomography images. The invention also relates to a computer program which, if executed on a computer, performs the steps of the inventive method, and to an electronically readable storage medium on which such a computer program is stored. [0002] The present invention also relates to the previous European patent applications EP 18189090 and EP 18160372 and their technical teachings are fully incorporated herein. Background technique [0003] Exploring the hundreds or thousands of medical images acquired by modern radiography modalities during a patient's examination is costly and laborious at the same time. This is because medical images need to examine different anatomical locations and utilize different imaging contrasts to identify suspicious structures or regions. These findings also require ...
