Abstract

An apparatus is disclosed for automatically detecting salient features in medical image data. The apparatus includes a memory device for storing the image data, at least one determination module for determining one or more anatomical regions which are acquired by the image data, a number of different examination modules that respectively include an application for automatically detecting specific salient features in a specific anatomical region, an input unit via which a primary application can be started, a control unit that on the basis of the anatomical regions determined by the determination module automatically selects and executes in the background further applications, as well as an output unit on which the result of the primary application is displayed together with an item of information relating to additional salient features that have been detected automatically with the aid of the applications executed in the background. The apparatus improves the diagnostic evaluation of medical image data.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a device for automatically detecting anomalies in medical image data of a body part of a patient, having storage means for storing the image data, input means capable of launching an application for automatically detecting specific anomalies in the image data, and An output device that displays the results of this application. Background technique [0002] Medical imaging is used in a wide variety of diagnostic problems to support the diagnosis of patients. Although diagnostically significant abnormalities in the recorded image data can be identified by an experienced user, there is a danger in the case of an inexperienced user that these abnormalities are caused by a not always optimal image quality. and was ignored. In order to reduce the occurrence of such problems, devices that can automatically detect abnormalities in recorded image data are known. These devices generally comprise a data processing station with an image...
