[0001] This application relates to the field of display technology, and in particular to a scanning protocol determination method and computer device. Background Technology

Taking magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) as an example, MRI involves a large number of protocol parameters, which have subtle interactions and dependencies with each other. The optimization and adjustment of protocol parameters is intricate, and the ideal parameter combination needs to consider not only tissue characteristics and application scenarios, but also the performance characteristics of the scanning equipment itself.

[0003] In traditional technologies, operators typically set or adjust the parameters in the scanning protocol. However, setting or adjusting scanning protocol parameters in traditional technologies heavily relies on the operator, requiring them to possess profound theoretical knowledge and extensive practical experience. Summary of the Invention

[0021] In one embodiment, determining the target scanning protocol based on the annotated parameter distribution reference map includes:

[0022] Based on the annotated parameter distribution reference diagram, determine whether the initial protocol parameter values ​​are within the preset range;

[0023] If the initial protocol parameter value is within the preset range, then the scanning protocol will be determined as the target scanning protocol;

[0024] If the initial protocol parameter value is outside the preset range, the modification of the initial scanning protocol parameter value by the first user is received to obtain the target scanning protocol.

[0025] In one embodiment, the method further includes:

[0053] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of this application.

[0054] First, before introducing the technical solutions of the embodiments disclosed in this application, the background technology or technological evolution on which the embodiments of this application are based will be introduced. Before scanning imaging, the scanning technology needs to set the parameters in the scanning protocol. Taking magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) as an example, MRI can achieve non-invasive and radiation-free structural and functional imaging, and is a key technology for clinical detection and treatment of various diseases. However, the parameter adjustment of MRI sequences is a complex task, which is quite challenging for general users. First, there are many types of sequences involved in MRI detection, and new ones are constantly emerging. Each sequence has its unique technical characteristics, image performance, and clinical application scenarios, requiring operators to spend a lot of time and effort to become familiar with and understand them. Second, MRI involves a large number of protocol parameters, which have subtle interactions and dependencies with each other. The optimization and adjustment process of protocol parameter values ​​is intricate. The ideal parameter combination needs to consider not only tissue characteristics and application scenarios, but also the performance characteristics of the scanning equipment itself. Currently, in the scanning imaging process, it is usually the operator who sets and adjusts the values ​​of the protocol parameters in the scanning protocol. However, the operator's experience and technical level have become one of the key factors determining the scanning effect. Stable magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans require operators to possess profound theoretical knowledge and rich practical experience, enabling them to accurately identify and resolve problems. Inexperienced operators may misunderstand or incorrectly set protocol parameter values, leading to a significant reduction in the quality of scan results. Furthermore, in routine scans, even experienced designers only master the adjustment of a few simple protocol parameters, such as field of view, number of slices, slice thickness, slice spacing, saturation band, and flip angle. Adjusting complex protocol parameters heavily relies on training and technical support from the equipment manufacturer. Therefore, this application provides a method for determining the scanning protocol.

[0055] The scanning protocol determination method provided in this application can be applied to, for example... Figure 1 The application environment shown includes a terminal 102 and a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) device 104. The terminal 102 can communicate with the MRI device 104 via a network. The terminal 102 can be, but is not limited to, various personal computers, laptops, and tablets. This embodiment does not limit the specific structure of the MRI device 104.

[0056] The technical solution of this application and how the technical solution of this application solves the technical problem are described in detail below with specific embodiments.

[0057] In one embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, a scanning protocol determination method is provided. This embodiment illustrates the application of this method to a terminal. In this embodiment, the method includes the following steps:

[0058] Step 200: Based on the scanning protocol determined by the first user, display the initial protocol parameter values ​​corresponding to the scanning protocol on the parameter interface.

[0059] The terminal includes a display screen showing a scan check interface, an ELSD (Elastic Elastic Disk System) interface, a parameter interface, and a scan sharing interface. The scan check interface displays a graphical positioning window, which is divided into three image windows (left, center, and right) to display reference images of different sections, allowing the first user to browse the displayed images and perform layer positioning. The check list interface includes a control area, a protocol list area, and an information display area. The control area has control controls to determine whether to perform a scan; the protocol list area displays the names of the protocols selected by the first user for scanning; and the information display area displays the scan status ("Scanning" or "Waiting for Scanning," etc.) and scan time (total scan time and / or scan countdown, etc.).

[0060] Before scanning, the first user sets the protocol parameters for the scanning protocol on the terminal. The first user searches for the required scanning protocol in a preset protocol library and drags it into the protocol list area on the display screen. After receiving the operation of the first user dragging the scanning protocol into the protocol list, the terminal displays the corresponding protocol parameters and their values ​​(i.e., the initial protocol parameter values) on the parameter interface. These initial protocol parameter values ​​can be those used by the previous user or preset by staff; this embodiment does not impose any restrictions.

[0061] In an optional embodiment, when the first user searches for a scanning protocol in a preset protocol library, the search is conducted using the scanning protocol's identifier, which is also the identifier displayed in the protocol list area. The scanning protocol identifier can be a name that uniquely represents the scanning protocol, set by the staff based on characteristics such as the scanned object's identity information (gender, age, etc.), the scanned area, and the sequence required for the scan.

[0062] Step 210: Obtain and display the parameter distribution reference map corresponding to the scanning protocol in the parameter interface, and mark the position of the initial protocol parameter value in the parameter distribution reference map; the parameter distribution reference map is used to characterize the statistical distribution of the protocol parameter values ​​corresponding to the scanning protocol.

[0063] The parameter distribution reference map is used to characterize the statistical distribution of the protocol parameter values ​​corresponding to the scanning protocol. In other words, the parameter distribution reference map includes the values ​​set for each protocol parameter in the scanning protocol by other users, as well as the number of users using those values—that is, the frequency with which the protocol parameter values ​​are used by other users. A scanning protocol may have multiple protocol parameters; each protocol parameter may have its own parameter distribution reference map, or key parameters (parameters that have a significant impact on scanning imaging) may have their own corresponding parameter distribution reference maps.

[0064] In an optional embodiment, the parameter distribution reference graph is displayed in the form of a coordinate system, where the horizontal axis represents the protocol parameter values ​​and the vertical axis represents the frequency of use of the protocol parameter values.

[0065] After determining the scanning protocol, the terminal can obtain a parameter distribution reference map corresponding to the scanning protocol and display the obtained parameter distribution reference map on the parameter interface, while also marking the position of the initial protocol parameter value in the parameter distribution reference map. This embodiment does not limit the display format of the parameter distribution reference map or the way the initial protocol parameter value is marked in the parameter distribution reference map, as long as the function can be achieved.

[0066] The parameter distribution reference map can be pre-stored in the terminal or stored in the cloud. This embodiment does not limit the specific method for obtaining the parameter distribution reference map corresponding to the scanning protocol, as long as the function can be achieved.

[0067] Step 220: Determine the target scanning protocol based on the annotated parameter distribution reference map.

[0068] After determining the annotated parameter distribution reference map, the terminal can determine the target protocol parameter value and the corresponding scanning protocol, i.e., the target scanning protocol, based on the annotated parameter distribution reference map. In other words, after the first user knows the position of the initial protocol parameter value corresponding to the scanning protocol in the parameter distribution reference map, they can determine whether the initial protocol parameter value is healthy based on its position in the parameter distribution reference map, thereby determining the target protocol parameter and ultimately the target scanning protocol. This embodiment does not limit the specific method for determining the target scanning protocol based on the annotated parameter distribution reference map, as long as the function is implemented.

[0069] The scanning protocol determination method provided in this application involves: displaying the initial protocol parameter values ​​corresponding to the scanning protocol on a parameter interface based on the scanning protocol determined by a first user; obtaining a parameter distribution reference map corresponding to the scanning protocol and marking the positions of the initial protocol parameter values ​​in the parameter distribution reference map; the parameter distribution reference map being used to characterize the statistical distribution of the protocol parameter values ​​corresponding to the scanning protocol; and determining the target scanning protocol based on the marked parameter distribution reference map. In this embodiment, based on the marked parameter distribution reference map, the first user can determine the positions of the initial protocol parameter values ​​in the parameter distribution reference map, enabling the first user to know the frequency of use of the initial protocol parameter values ​​in the parameter distribution reference map. This allows the first user to determine the accurate target scanning protocol, reducing or avoiding errors in the setting of protocol parameter values ​​in the target scanning protocol. Furthermore, this method does not place high demands on the theoretical knowledge and practical experience of the first user, making the scanning protocol determination method more practical.

[0070] In one embodiment, the parameter distribution reference plot includes any one of a bar chart, a pie chart, and a rectangle chart.

[0071] In the bar chart, different numerical bars represent the frequency of use of different protocol parameter values; different regions in the pie chart represent the frequency of use of protocol parameter values ​​within different numerical ranges; and different regions in the rectangle chart represent the frequency of use of protocol parameter values ​​within different numerical ranges.

[0072] The parameter distribution reference graph can be represented in any of the following formats: bar chart, pie chart, and rectangle chart. When the initial protocol parameters include multiple protocol parameters, the parameter distribution reference graphs corresponding to these multiple protocol parameters can all be represented in any of the following formats: bar chart, pie chart, and rectangle chart. In other words, the parameter distribution reference graphs corresponding to these multiple protocol parameters can have the same representation. Alternatively, the parameter distribution reference graphs corresponding to these multiple protocol parameters can be represented in different formats: bar chart, pie chart, and rectangle chart. This embodiment does not impose any restrictions on this.

[0073] The bar chart includes multiple numerical bars, each representing the frequency of use of different protocol parameter values. For a single protocol parameter in the scanning protocol, the horizontal axis represents the different protocol parameter values, and the vertical axis represents the frequency of use of that value, or the probability of using different protocol parameter values.

[0074] The pie chart includes multiple regions, each representing the frequency of use of protocol parameter values ​​within different numerical ranges. For a pie chart corresponding to a protocol parameter in the scanning protocol, the pie chart can be divided into multiple regions for different protocol parameter values. The position of each region in the pie chart indicates the corresponding protocol parameter value and its frequency of use. This embodiment does not restrict the form in which protocol parameter values ​​and their frequencies are represented in the pie chart, as long as the function is achieved.

[0075] In an optional embodiment, for a horizontally placed pie chart, the protocol parameter values ​​corresponding to different regions of the pie chart from left to right are from smallest to largest; or, the protocol parameter values ​​corresponding to different regions of the pie chart from right to left are from smallest to largest. Furthermore, the frequency of use of the corresponding protocol parameter values ​​in different regions is marked, which can be done using color coding, numerical notation, graphic notation, or other methods.

[0076] The rectangular diagram includes multiple regions, each representing the frequency of use of protocol parameter values ​​within different numerical ranges. The representation of protocol parameter values ​​and their frequency of use in the rectangular diagram can be the same as in the pie chart, and will not be elaborated further in this embodiment.

[0077] In this embodiment, three types of graphs are proposed for the parameter distribution reference graph: bar graph, pie chart, and rectangle graph. The first user can set them according to actual needs, making the scanning protocol determination method more practical.

[0078] In one optional embodiment, different parameter distribution reference map types are displayed on the terminal's parameter interface. A first user can select a target type of parameter distribution reference map on the parameter interface. After receiving the first user's selection, the terminal displays the parameter distribution reference map of the target type on the parameter interface. Optionally, a default type of parameter distribution reference map is set on the parameter interface, and the first user can switch between different types of parameter distribution reference maps by selecting the type of parameter distribution reference map.

[0079] In one embodiment, when the parameter distribution reference graph includes a histogram, one implementation involves marking the position of the initial protocol parameter values ​​in the parameter distribution reference graph. This implementation includes:

[0080] Use the first identifier to label the numerical bar containing the initial protocol parameter value in the bar chart.

[0081] The first identifier can be a pattern, color, arrow, etc. This embodiment does not limit the type of the first identifier, as long as it can achieve its function. The first identifier can be preset by the first user or selected on the parameter interface.

[0082] When the parameter distribution reference chart includes a bar chart, for a protocol parameter in the initial scanning protocol, the terminal uses a first identifier to mark the bar containing the initial protocol parameter value in the corresponding bar chart. Optionally, for the bar chart corresponding to the initial protocol parameter value, the terminal can use a different color than other bars to display the bar containing the initial protocol parameter value; the terminal can also use an arrow to indicate the bar containing the initial protocol parameter value in the bar chart.

[0083] In this embodiment, a first identifier is used to label the numerical bars in the bar chart where the initial protocol parameter values ​​are located. This makes it easier for the first user to clearly observe the position of the initial protocol parameter values ​​of the scanning protocol in the parameter distribution reference chart, thereby facilitating the first user to determine the target scanning protocol and improving the practicality and reliability of the scanning protocol determination method.

[0084] In one embodiment, when the parameter distribution reference graph includes a pie chart, one implementation involving marking the position of the initial protocol parameter values ​​in the parameter distribution reference graph includes:

[0085] Use a second identifier to mark the location of the initial protocol parameter value in the sector diagram.

[0086] The second identifier may be the same as or different from the first identifier. The description of the second identifier can be found in the specific description of the first identifier in the above embodiments, and will not be repeated here.

[0087] When the parameter distribution reference chart includes a bar chart, for a protocol parameter in the scanning protocol, the terminal uses a second identifier to mark the position of the initial protocol parameter value in the corresponding pie chart. Optionally, the terminal sets an arrow or another pattern at the position of the initial protocol parameter value in the corresponding pie chart.

[0088] In this embodiment, a second identifier is used to mark the position of the initial protocol parameter value in the sector diagram. This makes it easier for the first user to clearly observe the position of the initial protocol parameter value of the scanning protocol in the parameter distribution reference diagram, thereby facilitating the first user to determine the target scanning protocol and improving the practicality and reliability of the scanning protocol determination method.

[0089] In one embodiment, when the parameter distribution reference map includes a rectangular plot, one implementation involving labeling the position of the initial protocol parameter values ​​in the parameter distribution reference map includes:

[0090] Use a third identifier to mark the location of the initial protocol parameter value in the rectangular diagram.

[0091] The third identifier may be the same as or different from the first identifier. The description of the third identifier can be found in the specific description of the first identifier in the above embodiments, and will not be repeated here.

[0092] When the parameter distribution reference map includes a rectangular diagram, for a protocol parameter in the scanning protocol, the terminal marks the position of the initial protocol parameter value in the rectangular diagram corresponding to that protocol parameter using a third identifier. Optionally, the terminal may set an arrow or another pattern at the position of the initial protocol parameter value in the rectangular diagram corresponding to that protocol parameter.

[0093] In this embodiment, a third identifier is used to mark the position of the initial protocol parameter value in the rectangular diagram. This makes it easier for the first user to clearly observe the position of the initial protocol parameter value of the scanning protocol in the parameter distribution reference diagram, thereby facilitating the first user to determine the target scanning protocol and improving the practicality and reliability of the scanning protocol determination method.

[0094] In an optional embodiment, the protocol parameters in the scanning protocol include four key parameters: repetition time (TR), echo time (TE), time of inversion (TI), and flip angle (FA). Figure 3 As shown, the parameter distribution corresponding to the four key parameters is illustrated in a bar chart. Figure 3 The bar indicated by the middle arrow represents the bar containing the initial protocol parameter values ​​for the four key parameters. For example... Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the parameter distribution corresponding to the four key parameters is represented by a rectangular plot. Figure 4 The middle arrows indicate the positions of the initial protocol parameter values ​​for the four key parameters. Figure 4Different colors are used in different areas of the rectangular diagram to indicate the frequency of use of protocol parameter values ​​within different numerical ranges. Figure 4 The white areas indicate that the protocol parameter values ​​are used frequently, while the darker the color (closer to red), the less frequently the protocol parameter values ​​are used. Figure 5 The green area indicates that the protocol parameter values ​​are used frequently (approximately 85% or more of the users), the yellow area indicates that the protocol parameter values ​​are used less frequently (approximately 10%-15% of the users), and the red area indicates that the protocol parameter values ​​are used least frequently (approximately 5% of medical users). For example... Figure 6 As shown, the parameter distribution diagrams corresponding to the four key parameters are pie charts. Figure 6 The middle arrows indicate the positions of the initial protocol parameter values ​​for the four key parameters. Figure 6 Different colors are used in different areas of the pie chart to indicate the frequency of use of protocol parameter values ​​within different ranges. Figure 6 The white areas indicate that the parameter values ​​are used frequently, while the darker the area (closer to red), the less frequently the protocol parameter values ​​are used.

[0095] In one embodiment, an implementation method involves acquiring and displaying a parameter distribution reference diagram corresponding to a scanning protocol on a parameter interface. This implementation method includes:

[0096] The reference scanning protocol corresponding to the identifier of the scanning protocol is found in the protocol database. The parameter distribution diagram corresponding to the reference scanning protocol is determined as the parameter distribution reference diagram and displayed on the parameter interface.

[0097] The protocol database can be a shared database jointly established by multiple hospitals. It stores a large number of reference scan protocols and parameter distribution maps, as well as the correspondence between these protocols and the distribution maps. One reference scan protocol can correspond to multiple parameter distribution maps; that is, multiple protocol parameters included in a single reference scan protocol each have their own corresponding parameter distribution maps.

[0098] After obtaining the scanning protocol determined by the first user, the terminal searches for the reference scanning protocol corresponding to the identifier of the scanning protocol in the protocol database, determines the parameter distribution map corresponding to the reference scanning protocol as the parameter distribution reference map corresponding to the scanning protocol, and displays the determined parameter distribution reference map on the parameter interface.

[0099] In this embodiment, after obtaining the scanning protocol determined by the first user, the terminal can directly search the protocol database to determine the parameter distribution reference map. This improves the efficiency of obtaining the parameter distribution reference map. Furthermore, since the parameter distribution reference map is obtained from a protocol database containing a large number of protocols, it has higher practicality and reliability, thereby improving the accuracy of the target scanning protocol determined based on the parameter distribution reference map.

[0100] In one embodiment, after the terminal determines the target scanning protocol, the scanning protocol determination method further includes:

[0101] The target scanning protocol and its identifier are uploaded to the ecosystem database so that a second user can verify the target scanning protocol. After successful verification, the target scanning protocol and its identifier are uploaded to the protocol database.

[0102] The ecological database can be a shared database jointly established by multiple hospitals. It stores the scanning protocols used by each first user during the scanning process, specifically the target scanning protocol determined by the first user through the above embodiments.

[0103] After determining the target scanning protocol, the terminal uploads the target scanning protocol and its identifier to the ecosystem database. The second user can then access the target scanning protocol from the ecosystem database and verify it to determine its health, i.e., whether the image obtained based on the target scanning protocol meets the first user's needs. If the second user's verification of the target scanning protocol is successful, the second user uploads the target scanning protocol and its identifier to the protocol database to supplement the reference scanning protocols in the database and update the parameter distribution map corresponding to the reference scanning protocols.

[0104] Specifically, the verification device (computer device or terminal) corresponding to the second user can obtain the target scanning protocol to be verified from the ecosystem database and display it on the verification interface. The verification interface includes pass and fail controls. If the second user determines that the target scanning protocol is healthy, they trigger an operation on the pass control. The verification device receives the trigger operation from the second user and uploads the target scanning protocol and its identifier to the protocol database. If the second user determines that the target scanning protocol is unhealthy, they trigger an operation on the fail control, and the verification device will not upload the target scanning protocol to the protocol database. Optionally, after receiving the second user's trigger operation on the fail control, the verification device will store the target scanning protocol. The second user can adjust the protocol parameter values ​​in the target scanning protocol based on their professional knowledge to make it healthy. After receiving the adjusted target scanning protocol from the second user, the verification device will upload the adjusted target scanning protocol and its identifier to the protocol database. Here, the second user refers to a professional technician.

[0105] In this embodiment, after determining the target scanning protocol, the terminal uploads the target scanning protocol to the ecological database so that the second user can verify the target scanning protocol. After successful verification, the target scanning protocol is uploaded to the protocol database. This updates the protocol database, improving the accuracy of the parameter distribution map in the protocol database and making the scanning protocol determination method more practical and reliable.

[0106] In one embodiment, such as Figure 7 As shown, this involves an implementation method for determining the target scanning protocol based on a labeled parameter distribution reference map. The steps of this implementation method include:

[0107] Step 700: Based on the annotated parameter distribution reference diagram, determine whether the initial protocol parameter values ​​are within the preset range.

[0108] The preset value range represents the range of protocol parameter values ​​that a large number of users frequently use, pre-set by the first user. Optionally, the preset value range can be set by the first user based on the usage frequency of each protocol parameter value. That is, the range of protocol parameter values ​​whose usage frequency is greater than a preset frequency threshold is determined as the preset value range. When the scanned protocol includes multiple protocol parameters, the preset value ranges for each protocol parameter can be different.

[0109] The terminal compares the initial protocol parameter value marked by the first user on the parameter distribution reference diagram with the preset value range to determine whether the initial protocol value is within the preset value range.

[0110] Step 710: If the initial protocol parameter value is within the preset range, then the scanning protocol parameter is determined as the target scanning protocol.

[0111] If the terminal compares the initial protocol parameter value with the preset value range and determines that the initial protocol parameter value is within the preset value range, indicating that the initial protocol parameter value is frequently used by a large number of users, then the scanning protocol corresponding to the initial protocol parameter value is determined as the target scanning protocol. If the scanning protocol includes multiple protocol parameters, and the initial protocol parameter value of each protocol parameter is within its corresponding preset value range, then the scanning protocol is determined as the target scanning protocol.

[0112] Step 720: If the initial protocol parameter value is outside the preset value range, then receive the first user's modification of the initial protocol parameter value to obtain the target scanning protocol.

[0113] If the terminal compares the initial protocol parameter value with the preset value range and determines that the initial protocol parameter value is outside the preset range, it means that the initial protocol parameter value is not frequently used by a large number of users.

[0114] When the terminal determines that the initial protocol parameter value is outside the preset value range, the first user can adjust the initial protocol parameter value according to the preset value range, that is, adjust the initial protocol parameter value to the preset value range. After receiving the modification of the initial protocol parameter value by the first user, the terminal determines the modified initial protocol parameter value as the target protocol parameter value, and the scanning protocol corresponding to the target protocol parameter value is determined as the target scanning protocol.

[0115] In this embodiment, for the parameter distribution reference map after annotation, it can be determined whether the initial protocol parameter value is within the preset value range. If the initial protocol parameter value is outside the preset value range, the first user can adjust the initial protocol parameter value by referring to the preset value range to obtain the target scanning protocol. This does not require much theoretical knowledge and practical experience from the first user, making the scanning protocol determination method more practical.

[0116] In one embodiment, the scanning protocol determination method further includes:

[0117] If the initial protocol parameter values ​​are abnormal, a prompt message will be displayed on the parameter interface.

[0118] An abnormal initial protocol parameter value means that the initial protocol parameter value is outside the preset value range, that is, the initial protocol parameter value is not a protocol parameter value that is frequently used by a large number of users.

[0119] If the terminal determines that the initial protocol parameter value is abnormal, it will display a prompt message on the parameter interface to notify the first user. The prompt message can be a voice prompt or a text prompt, etc.

[0120] In an optional embodiment, if the initial protocol parameter value is determined to be abnormal, the terminal will pop up a prompt box, which will display the abnormal protocol parameter and its initial protocol parameter value.

[0121] In another optional embodiment, if an abnormal initial protocol parameter value is determined to be present, the terminal marks the parameter distribution reference map corresponding to the abnormal initial protocol parameter value on the parameter interface. For example, the parameter distribution reference map corresponding to the abnormal initial protocol parameter value can be highlighted. Figure 8 As shown, when the parameter distribution reference diagram is a rectangular diagram, the rectangles in the parameter distribution reference diagram corresponding to the abnormal initial protocol parameter values ​​are displayed in bold.

[0122] In this embodiment, if the initial protocol parameter value is abnormal, a prompt message will be displayed on the parameter interface. This makes it easier for the first user to promptly and accurately identify the abnormal protocol parameter and the initial protocol parameter value, and to adjust the initial protocol parameter value, thereby improving the practicality of the scanning protocol determination method.

[0123] In one embodiment, the scanning protocol includes multiple initial protocol parameter values, the parameter distribution reference diagram is a meter chart, and each initial protocol parameter value corresponds to a meter chart;

[0124] The importance of imaging quality is sorted for multiple instrument graphs according to their corresponding initial protocol parameter values.

[0125] The scanning protocol includes multiple protocol parameters, each with a corresponding initial protocol parameter value. In this embodiment, the parameter distribution reference diagram is a meter chart, with each initial protocol parameter value corresponding to one meter chart. The description of the meter chart can be found in the detailed description of the pie chart in the above embodiment, and will not be repeated here.

[0126] The initial protocol parameter values ​​in the scanning protocol have different degrees of importance to the quality (imaging quality) of the scanned image. The terminal can sort the instrument graphs from largest to smallest according to the importance of the initial protocol parameter values ​​to the imaging quality. That is, the instrument graph with the highest importance is ranked first, the instrument graph with the second highest importance is ranked second, and so on.

[0127] In this embodiment, another representation of the parameter distribution reference diagram is provided: the instrument diagram. The instrument diagram can be sorted according to the importance of the corresponding initial protocol parameter values ​​to the imaging quality. This not only clearly displays each instrument diagram, but also allows the first user to know the importance of the corresponding initial protocol parameters to the imaging quality based on the displayed instrument diagrams.

[0128] Please see Figure 9 One embodiment of this application provides a scanning protocol determination method, the steps of which include:

[0129] Step 900: Receive the scanning protocol determined by the first user on the check list interface, and display the initial protocol parameter values ​​corresponding to the scanning protocol on the parameter interface;

[0130] Step 910: Search for the reference scanning protocol corresponding to the identifier of the scanning protocol in the protocol database, and determine the parameter distribution map corresponding to the reference scanning protocol as the parameter distribution reference map;

[0131] Step 920: Display the parameter distribution reference graph in the parameter interface, and use arrows to mark the initial protocol parameter values ​​in the parameter distribution reference graph; the parameter distribution reference graph is used to characterize the statistical distribution of the protocol parameter values ​​corresponding to the scanning protocol;

[0132] Step 930: Based on the annotated parameter distribution reference diagram, determine whether the initial protocol parameter values ​​are within the preset range;

[0133] Step 940: If the value is within the preset range, then the scanning protocol is determined as the target scanning protocol;

[0134] Step 950: If the value is outside the preset range, display a prompt message on the parameter interface and receive the first user's modification of the initial protocol parameter value to obtain the target scanning protocol;

[0135] Step 960: Upload the target scanning protocol and its identifier to the ecosystem database so that the second user can verify the target scanning protocol. After successful verification, upload the target scanning protocol and its identifier to the protocol database.

Unless explicitly stated herein, there is no strict order restriction on the execution of these steps, and they can be executed in other orders.

The execution order of these steps or stages is not necessarily sequential, but can be performed alternately or in turn with other steps or at least some of the steps or stages of other steps.

[0137] Based on the same inventive concept, this application also provides a scanning protocol determination apparatus for implementing the scanning protocol determination method described above. The solution provided by this apparatus is similar to the implementation described in the above method; therefore, the specific limitations in one or more scanning protocol determination apparatus embodiments provided below can be found in the limitations of the scanning protocol determination method described above, and will not be repeated here.

[0138] In one embodiment, such as Figure 10 As shown, a scanning protocol determination device 10 is provided, including: a display module 11, an annotation module 12, and a determination module 13, wherein:

[0139] Display module 11 is used to display the initial protocol parameter values ​​corresponding to the scanning protocol on the parameter interface according to the scanning protocol determined by the first user.

[0140] The annotation module 12 is used to obtain and display the parameter distribution reference map corresponding to the scanning protocol in the parameter interface, and to annotate the position of the initial protocol parameter value in the parameter distribution reference map; the parameter distribution reference map is used to characterize the statistical distribution of the protocol parameter values ​​corresponding to the scanning protocol.

[0141] Module 13 is used to determine the target scanning protocol based on the annotated parameter distribution reference map.

[0143] In one embodiment, when the parameter distribution reference graph includes a bar chart, the annotation module 12 is specifically used to annotate the numerical bars in the bar chart where the initial protocol parameter values ​​are located using a first identifier.

[0144] In one embodiment, when the parameter distribution reference graph includes a bar chart, the annotation module 12 is specifically used to annotate the position of the initial protocol parameter value in the pie chart using a second identifier.

[0145] In one embodiment, when the parameter distribution reference graph includes a bar chart, the annotation module 12 is specifically used to annotate the position of the initial protocol parameter value in the rectangular graph using a third identifier.

[0146] In one embodiment, the annotation module 12 is further configured to search for a reference scanning protocol corresponding to the identifier of the scanning protocol in the protocol database, determine the parameter distribution map corresponding to the reference scanning protocol as the parameter distribution reference map, and display the parameter distribution reference map on the parameter interface.

[0147] In one embodiment, the scanning protocol determination device 10 further includes an upload module. The upload module is used to upload the target scanning protocol and its identifier to an ecosystem database so that a second user can verify the target scanning protocol, and after successful verification, upload the target scanning protocol and its identifier to a protocol database.

[0148] In one embodiment, the determining module 12 is specifically used to determine whether the initial protocol parameter value is within a preset value range based on the labeled parameter distribution reference map; if the initial protocol parameter value is within the preset value range, the scanning protocol is determined as the target scanning protocol; if the initial protocol parameter value is outside the preset value range, the modification of the initial protocol parameter value by the first user is received to obtain the target scanning protocol.

[0149] In one embodiment, the scanning protocol determination device 10 further includes a prompting module. The prompting module is used to display prompt information on the parameter interface when the initial protocol parameter value is abnormal.

[0150] In one embodiment, the scanning protocol includes multiple initial protocol parameter values, the parameter distribution reference diagram is an instrument chart, and each initial protocol parameter value corresponds to a separate instrument chart. The scanning protocol determination device 10 further includes a sorting module, which is used to sort the multiple instrument charts according to the importance of the corresponding initial protocol parameter values ​​to the imaging quality.

[0151] The scanning protocol determines that each module in the device can be implemented entirely or partially through software, hardware, or a combination thereof. These modules can be embedded in hardware within or independently of the processor in a computer device, or stored in software within the memory of the computer device, so that the processor can invoke and execute the operations corresponding to each module.

[0152] In one embodiment, a computer device is provided, which may be a terminal, and its internal structure diagram may be as follows: Figure 11 As shown, the computer device includes a processor, memory, communication interface, display screen, and input devices connected via a system bus. The processor provides computing and control capabilities. The memory includes non-volatile storage media and internal memory. The non-volatile storage media stores the operating system and computer programs. The internal memory provides an environment for the operation of the operating system and computer programs stored in the non-volatile storage media. The communication interface is used for wired or wireless communication with external terminals; wireless communication can be achieved through Wi-Fi, mobile cellular networks, NFC (Near Field Communication), or other technologies. When executed by the processor, the computer program implements a scanning protocol determination method. The display screen can be an LCD screen or an e-ink screen. The input devices can be a touch layer covering the display screen, buttons, a trackball, or a touchpad mounted on the computer device casing, or an external keyboard, touchpad, or mouse.

[0153] Those skilled in the art will understand that Figure 10 The structure shown is merely a block diagram of a portion of the structure related to the present application and does not constitute a limitation on the computer device to which the present application is applied. Specific computer devices may include more or fewer components than those shown in the figure, or combine certain components, or have different component arrangements.

[0154] In one embodiment, such as Figure 12 As shown, a computer device is provided, including a memory and a processor deployed on a client side. The memory stores a computer program, and the processor executes the computer program to perform the following steps:

[0155] Step 120: In response to the first user's operation on the parameter interface of the client, select the scanning protocol and the initial protocol parameter value of the scanning protocol.

[0156] The client includes a display screen. For a description of the specific content displayed on the display screen, please refer to the description in the above embodiments, which will not be repeated here.

[0157] The first user selects a scanning protocol on the client's parameter interface. The processor responds to this selection by choosing the scanning protocol and its initial protocol parameter values. In other words, the initial protocol parameters for the selected scanning protocol can be pre-set, and these initial parameter values ​​can be obtained simultaneously with the scanning protocol. The initial protocol parameter values ​​can be those used by the previous user or pre-set by staff; this embodiment does not impose any restrictions on this.

[0158] Step 121: Obtain and display the parameter distribution reference diagram corresponding to the scanning protocol in the parameter interface, and mark the position of the initial protocol parameters in the parameter distribution reference diagram; the parameter distribution reference diagram is a meter chart, which is used to characterize the health of the initial protocol parameter value settings.

[0159] The parameter distribution reference chart is used to characterize the statistical distribution of protocol parameter values ​​corresponding to the scanning protocol. The parameter distribution reference chart is a gauge chart; different regions of the gauge chart correspond to protocol parameter values ​​from smallest to largest, either from left to right or from right to left. The frequency of use of the corresponding protocol parameter values ​​in different regions is marked on the gauge chart. This can be done using color coding, numerical labels, graphic labels, or other methods. The frequency of use of different protocol parameter values ​​indicates the health of that protocol parameter region; a higher frequency indicates a higher health level.

[0160] After obtaining the parameter distribution reference map corresponding to the scanning protocol, the processor displays the parameter distribution reference map on the parameter interface, and marks the position of the initial protocol parameters in the parameter distribution reference map.

[0161] Step 122: In response to the first user's instruction to adjust at least one initial protocol parameter value on the parameter interface, a target scanning protocol is generated; the adjustment instruction is determined by the first user based on the instrument diagram, and the client's scanning device operates based on the target scanning protocol.

[0162] Based on the instrument graph displayed on the parameter interface, the first user determines that at least one abnormal initial protocol parameter value exists. The first user then adjusts the abnormal initial protocol parameter value based on the instrument graph. In response to the first user's adjustment instruction for at least one initial protocol parameter value on the parameter interface, the processor generates target protocol parameter values, thereby obtaining the target scanning protocol. After determining the target scanning protocol, the scanning device located at the client operates based on this target scanning protocol, i.e., it can scan and image the object based on this target scanning protocol.

[0163] The processor in the computer device provided in this embodiment selects a scanning protocol and its initial parameter values ​​in response to an operation by a first user on the parameter interface of a client; it acquires and displays a parameter distribution reference map corresponding to the scanning protocol on the parameter interface, and marks the position of the initial protocol parameter values ​​on the parameter distribution reference map; the parameter distribution reference map is a gauge chart, and the gauge chart is used to characterize the health of the initial protocol parameter values; in response to an adjustment instruction from the first user on the parameter interface for at least one initial protocol parameter value, a target scanning protocol is generated; the adjustment instruction is determined by the first user based on the gauge chart, and the client's scanning device operates based on the target scanning protocol. In this embodiment, based on the position of the initial protocol parameter values ​​marked on the parameter distribution reference map, the first user can know the health of the initial protocol parameter values ​​on the parameter distribution reference map, thereby enabling the first user to determine an accurate target scanning protocol and reduce or avoid errors in parameter value settings in the target scanning protocol. Furthermore, this does not place high demands on the theoretical knowledge and practical experience of the first user, making the scanning protocol determination method more practical.

[0164] In one embodiment, the processor, when executing a computer program, also implements:

[0165] Update the instrument panel diagram according to the target scanning protocol.

[0166] After the processor adjusts the initial protocol parameters based on the adjustment instructions of the first user, it can obtain the adjusted initial protocol parameters. Based on the adjusted initial protocol parameters, the instrument chart corresponding to the scanning protocol can be updated, that is, the position of the initial protocol parameter value marked in the instrument chart can be updated.

[0167] In this embodiment, the instrument chart is updated according to the generated target scanning protocol, which results in a more accurate instrument chart and facilitates its subsequent use.

[0168] In one embodiment, such as Figure 13 As shown, when a processor executes a computer program, it also implements:

[0169] Step 130: Send the target scanning protocol or the target scanning protocol and the image scanned by the scanning device to the cloud server for verification. The cloud server stores an ecological database.

[0170] After acquiring the target scanning protocol, the processor sends it to the cloud server for verification, specifically to determine whether the health of the initial protocol parameter values ​​meets preset requirements. The processor can also send the target scanning protocol, along with the image obtained by the scanning device scanning the object based on that protocol, to the cloud server.

[0171] The cloud server stores an ecological database. After the processor sends the target scanning protocol or the target scanning protocol along with the image scanned by the scanning device to the cloud server, the cloud server can store the received target scanning protocol or the image scanned by the scanning device into the ecological database. Technicians retrieve the target scanning protocol from the ecological database for verification according to a preset period.

[0172] Step 131: In response to the cloud server completing the verification of the target scanning protocol, perform an update operation on the protocol database. The update of the protocol database is achieved by adding the target scanning protocol to the protocol database; the protocol database is used to provide a reference diagram of the parameter distribution corresponding to the scanning protocol.

[0173] The description of the protocol database can be found in the specific description in the above embodiments, and will not be repeated here. The cloud server includes a display interface that shows the target scanning protocols that need to be verified. After the technician verifies the target scanning protocols based on the content displayed on the interface, a verification result is obtained, including verification passed and verification failed. If the verification passes, the technician performs a confirmation operation on the display interface. In response to the technician's confirmation operation, the cloud server sends the verified target scanning protocol to the client. If the verification fails, the technician adjusts the initial protocol parameter values ​​in the target scanning protocol and sends the adjusted target scanning protocol values ​​to the cloud server client.

[0174] After receiving the target scanning protocol or the adjusted target scanning protocol, the client responds by having the cloud server verify the target scanning protocol and then performing an update operation on the protocol database through the processor, that is, adding the target scanning protocol to the protocol database.

[0175] In this embodiment, the target scanning protocol or the target scanning protocol and the image scanned by the scanning device are sent to a cloud server for verification. In response to the cloud server completing the verification of the target scanning protocol, an update operation is performed on the protocol database. This updates the protocol database, improving the accuracy of the parameter distribution map within it, thus enhancing the practicality and reliability of the scanning protocol determination method. Furthermore, this enriches and improves the protocol database, enabling cloud synchronization of the protocol database by the client.

[0176] In an optional embodiment, such as Figure 14As shown, the steps executed by the processor in the computer device can form a loop. After determining the target scanning protocol based on the acquired parameter distribution reference map, i.e., the instrumentation map, the processor uploads the target scanning protocol to the cloud server, which includes an ecosystem database. Technicians review the target scanning protocols in the ecosystem database to determine their health. If the health of the target scanning protocol meets the review requirements, or if the health of the target scanning protocol does not meet the review requirements, the technicians adjust the initial protocol parameter values ​​in the target scanning protocol to meet the review requirements. Once the target scanning protocol that meets the review requirements is sent to the client and added to the client's protocol database, the protocol database is updated to generate a new instrumentation map, and the first user retrieves the new instrumentation map from the updated protocol database.
