AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

The number of parallel logical data channels in medical facility image storage and communication systems is static and cannot be dynamically adapted to the current situation, leading to inefficiencies in processing and speed.

Method used

An image storage and communication system with a central data store, imaging devices, processing devices, and a control device that dynamically adjusts the number of logical data channels based on various parameters such as data transfer rate, time, and system status to optimize data retrieval.

Benefits of technology

Dynamically adjusting logical data channels enhances processing efficiency and prevents overloading by adapting to system status, ensuring optimal performance and reduced latency.

Abstract

Image storage and communication system (100), comprising: a central data storage device (101) for storing medical data; a plurality of imaging devices (103) for acquiring the medical data, which are connected to the central data storage device (101) via logical data channels (105); a plurality of processing devices (107) for processing the medical data, which are connected to the central data storage device (101) via logical data channels (105); and a retrieval node (111) for retrieving the medical data from the central data storage device (101) via logical data channels (105);and a control device (109) for dynamically adjusting the number of logical data channels (105) between the retrieval node (111) and the central data storage (101) via which the medical data can be retrieved from the central data storage (101), wherein the control device (109) is configured to increase the number of logical data channels (105) to the imaging devices (103) and to decrease the number of logical data channels (105) to the processing devices (107), and wherein the control device (109) is configured to decrease the number of logical data channels (105) to the imaging devices (103) and to increase the number of logical data channels (105) to the processing devices (107).
