[0027] The display unit 113 consists of a monitor such as an LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) and displays various screens, medical images, and the display screen of a display application (hereinafter referred to as "display application") described later, according to the instructions of the display signals input from the control unit 111.

[0028] The communication unit 114 is an interface that transmits and receives data with external devices such as the second system 20 via the RIS server 12, and transmits and receives data with each device connected to the network N.

[0029] The storage unit 115 is composed of a hard disk or non-volatile semiconductor memory, and is a storage unit capable of writing and reading data and programs. The storage unit 115 also stores program 115a. Program 115a includes various system programs, application programs, and display application programs that display various information and medical images, which are executed by the control unit 111.

[0030] Furthermore, the memory unit 115 stores the basic URL, which will be described later.

[0031] The RIS server 12 is a computer device connected to network N that stores, stores, and manages various types of information and medical image data. Specifically, the RIS server 12 stores patient information, including basic patient information, disability information, and contraindication information. Patient basic information refers to information about each individual patient. This information may include, for example, the patient ID of the medical facility, the patient's name, age, date of birth, gender, blood type, height, and weight. Disability information refers to information about a patient's physical disability, including symptoms of the disability (such as hearing impairment or impaired consciousness). Contraindication information refers to information regarding contraindications, such as whether the patient has an allergic constitution. Furthermore, the RIS server 12 stores patient information such as patient comments, patient comments by technician, patient comments by examination type, and HIS patient comments.

[0032] Furthermore, the RIS server 12 stores examination information (examination number, examination site, examination direction, examination method, examination position, left / right, etc.). Furthermore, the RIS server 12 stores inspection information such as inspection lists, inspection timelines, inspection comments, and contact comments.

[0033] The second system 20 includes a control terminal 21 and a web server 22. The control terminal 21 is comprised of a control unit 211, a communication unit 212, a storage unit 213, and the other components, and these components are connected by a bus.

[0034] The control unit 211 is composed of a CPU, RAM, etc., and comprehensively controls the processing operations of each part of the control terminal 21. Specifically, the control unit 211 reads system programs and various processing programs stored in the memory unit 213, loads them into a work area formed in RAM, and performs various processing in cooperation with those programs.

[0035] The communication unit 212 is an interface that transmits and receives data with external devices such as the radiology information system 10 via the web server 22, and transmits and receives data with each device connected to the network N.

[0036] The storage unit 213 is composed of a hard disk, non-volatile semiconductor memory, etc., and is a storage unit capable of writing and reading data and programs.

[0037] The web server 22 is connected to network N and is a computer device that stores, stores, and manages various types of information and medical image data. Furthermore, the web server 22 stores web server programs and other necessary components to enable it to function as a web server, providing various web pages to the display area of ​​the display screen shown by the display application installed on the user terminal 11.

[0038] Furthermore, the web server 22 stores data for web pages that have access URLs associated with patient information or examination information. Various information and medical images are displayed on these web pages. For example, the data for a web page is HTML (Hyper Text Markup Language) data that displays various information and medical images. The various types of information and medical images, specifically, when the second system 20 is a dose management system 20A, refer to medical images generated by a medical image generation device that are stored in association with supplementary information (patient information (patient ID, patient name, date of birth, age, gender, height, weight, etc.), examination information (examination number, examination date and time, medical image generation device, type of imaging, examination site, imaging procedure, radiopharmaceutical, etc.)) and dose information. Furthermore, if the second system 20 is the electronic medical record system 20B, then the various types of information and medical images refer to medical record data (information such as the patient's condition and diagnosis) and prescription data. Furthermore, if the second system 20 is PACS20C, the various information and medical images refer to medical images generated within the medical facility and stored in association with patient information and examination information. These medical images are digitized medical images generated by medical image generation devices such as CR (Computed Radiography) devices, CT (Computed Tomography) devices, and MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) devices. Furthermore, if the second system 20 is the image interpretation report system 20D, then the various information and medical images refer to medical images and management information. This management information includes multiple pieces of information such as the examination number, the patient's patient ID, the patient's name, gender, date of birth, examination date, examination time, examination conditions (imaging area, imaging direction, body position, etc.), examination description, modality type, image interpretation status (uninterpreted, in progress, awaiting approval, approved, etc.), the UID (Unique ID) of the medical image taken during the examination, the file storage location of the medical image, the report ID of the image interpretation report for the examination, the storage location of the image interpretation report, the radiologist ID, and the approving physician ID. The radiologist ID is the user ID of the physician who created the image interpretation report. The approving physician ID is the user ID of the physician who approved the image interpretation report.

[0039] Next, we will explain the display application that launches on the user's terminal 11. Figure 2 shows the board editing menu screen 131, which allows editing of the display area (board) of the display screen shown by the display application. In the section 132 shown in Figure 2, the board name can be arbitrarily set by input via the operation unit 112. In the example shown in Figure 2, the board name is set to "Create New Board". Furthermore, in the selection section 133 shown in Figure 2, you can arbitrarily select an icon to add to the board. In the example shown in Figure 2, the "Patient" icon is selected. Furthermore, in the selection section 134 shown in Figure 2, you can select a board type with pre-configured items that can be displayed on the board (displayable items) for each purpose. For example, to set the display screen board to a board for examination reservations, select "Reservation". To set it to a board for reception processing, select "Reception". To set it to a board for examination lists, select "Worklist". To set it to a board for when imaging is performed, select "Performance". To set it to a board for patient information registration and confirmation, select "Patient". To set it to a board that digitizes the worklist (displays it as a schedule), select "Ledger". In the example shown in Figure 2, "Worklist" is selected.

[0040] Next, Figure 3 shows the board editing menu screen 131 when "Worklist" is selected in the selection unit 134. In the selection section 135 shown in Figure 3, users can select items they want to display on the board from the displayable items pre-configured for the "Worklist" type by pressing the "Add" button 136. Note that on the "Worklist" type board, the inspection list items are mandatory and are pre-configured to always be displayed. Furthermore, various settings for the inspection list items can be configured by pressing the "Settings" button 137. Furthermore, by pressing the "Save" button 138, the information selected on the board editing menu screen 131 is saved and set in the storage unit 115, and by pressing the "Close" button 139, the board editing menu screen 131 can be closed. When the board editing menu screen 131 is closed, a board corresponding to the saved settings will open.

[0041] Next, Figures 4A and 4B show an example of board 1310 when "Worklist" is selected. The control unit 111 displays the items selected in the selection unit 135 shown in Figure 3 and the inspection list on the board 1310. The control unit 111 retrieves the inspection list and inspection timeline from the RIS server 12 and displays in area A one of the inspection list and inspection timeline selected by the user via tab AT on the operation unit 112. The user selects the inspection for which they want to view information from among the inspections registered in the inspection list via the operation unit 112. In the example shown in Figures 4A and 4B, the inspection with RIS number 3 is selected.

[0042] If a user selects one of the tests registered in the test list, the control unit 111 retrieves the patient's basic information related to the selected test from the RIS server 12 and displays the retrieved patient information in area B. Furthermore, the control unit 111 obtains patient comments related to the selected examination, patient comments by technician, and patient comments by examination type from the RIS server 12, and displays in area C one of the patient comments, patient comments by technician, or patient comments by examination type selected by the user via the operation unit 112 using the CT tab. Furthermore, the control unit 111 obtains HIS patient comments related to the selected examination from the RIS server 12 and displays the obtained HIS patient comments in area D. Furthermore, the control unit 111 obtains contraindication information related to the selected test from the RIS server 12 and displays the obtained contraindication information in area E. Furthermore, the control unit 111 obtains inspection information related to the selected inspection from the RIS server 12 and displays the obtained inspection information in area F. Furthermore, the control unit 111 obtains inspection comments related to the selected inspection from the RIS server 12 and displays the obtained inspection comments in area G. Furthermore, the control unit 111 obtains contact comments related to the selected inspection from the RIS server 12 and displays the obtained contact comments in area H. Furthermore, the control unit 111 displays in area I one of the web browsers (1) and web browser (3) selected by the user via tab IT through the operation unit 112. Furthermore, the control unit 111 displays a web browser (4) in area J. Furthermore, when the user operates via the operation unit 112 and the mouse cursor is moved over tab KT, the control unit 111 displays a web browser (2) in area K, as shown in Figure 4B. The content displayed in web browsers (1), (2), (3), and (4) will be described later.

[0043] By enabling users to switch between displaying specific items using tabs, it is possible to prevent a reduction in the amount of information displayed in the display area, even when displaying a web browser screen within the display area of ​​the screen.

[0044] Furthermore, as shown in Figures 4A and 4B, items other than the web browser selected in the selection unit 135 shown in Figure 3, the examination list, and the web browser screen are each displayed in separate areas within the display area. In other words, the control unit 111 divides the display area into a first display area that displays patient information and examination information, and a second display area that displays related information which is displayed on the web browser screen. Areas A, B, C, D, Ea (described later), F, G, and H shown in Figures 4A and 4B are the first display areas. Areas I, J, and K are the second display areas. As a result, the area Ea that displays important information, including contraindication information, as shown in Figures 4A and 4B, is not obscured by the screens of web browsers such as web browser (1), web browser (2), web browser (3), and web browser (4).

[0045] Furthermore, as shown in Figures 4A and 4B, when a web browser such as web browser (1), web browser (2), web browser (3), and web browser (4) is selected as an item to be displayed on board 1310, the control unit 111 of the user terminal 11 executes the web browser display process shown in Figure 5. This process allows various information and medical images stored in the web server 22 to be displayed on the web browser screen.

[0046] In the web browser display process, first, the control unit 111 obtains the basic URL corresponding to the web browser selected in the selection unit 135 shown in Figure 3 from the storage unit 115 (step S1). The basic URL is pre-configured for each web browser. Figure 6 shows examples of basic URLs for web browser (1), web browser (2), and web browser (3). Next, the control unit 111 obtains patient information or test information related to the test selected by the user in the test list from the RIS server 12 (step S2). For example, the patient information is the patient ID from the basic patient information. The test information is the test number.

[0047] Next, the control unit 111 replaces a predetermined string in the basic URL with the patient information or examination information obtained in step S2 to generate an access URL (step S3). Specifically, the control unit 111 replaces the string "NULLID" in the basic URL shown in Figure 6 with the patient ID obtained in step S2. It also replaces the string "NULLNumber" with the examination number obtained in step S2. Figure 7 shows examples of access URLs generated in step S3 of web browser (1), web browser (2), and web browser (3). In the example shown in Figure 7, the patient ID is "000001" and the test number is "2021092708143687". In other words, the access URL is associated with the patient ID as patient information and the test number as test information.

[0048] Next, the control unit 111 accesses the access URL generated in step S3 via the communication unit 114. Then, it receives the web page data (for example, HTML data displaying various information and medical images) stored on the web server 22, to which the access URL is attached (step S4). In other words, the various information and medical images displayed in the web page data stored on the web server 22 are related information concerning patient information or examination information.

[0049] Next, the control unit 111 displays the web page in the web browser screen on the display screen board based on the web page data received in step S4 (step S5). In other words, the control unit 111 displays the web page containing the relevant information in the display area of ​​the display screen using a web browser. In the example shown in Figure 4A, the web browser (1) displayed in area I shows a web page stored in the dose management system 20A, and dose information as related information is displayed on that web page. The web browser (4) displayed in area J shows a web page stored in the image interpretation report system 20D. In the example shown in Figure 4B, the web browser (2) displayed in area K shows a web page stored in the electronic medical record system 20B. Note that related information within the web pages displayed in web browsers (2) and (4) is omitted.

[0050] Next, the control unit 111 saves any relevant information from the relevant information displayed on the web page to the RIS server 12 as patient information or examination information (step S6) based on the data of the web page received in step S4, and then terminates this process. Specifically, in step S4, for example, if HTML data displaying various information is received, the control unit 111 obtains text data from a predetermined location within the HTML page and saves it to the RIS server 12 as patient information or examination information. The predetermined location from which to obtain this information is set in advance for each web browser. In the example shown in Figure 4A, the predetermined location from which the information is acquired is region Ia within region I. In this case, the control unit 111 stores the dose information value displayed in region Ia as patient information or examination information in the RIS server 12.

[0051] By executing the above web browser display process, past images of the patient stored in the web server 22 can be displayed in the display area of ​​the display screen during examinations, etc. Furthermore, if the second system 20 is a dose management system 20A, dose information stored in the web server 22 can be displayed in the display area of ​​the display screen. Furthermore, as described above, the information displayed in the display area of ​​the display screen can be saved to the RIS server 12.

[0052] (Variation 1) Next, a modified example 1 of the above embodiment will be described. The following will focus on explaining the differences from the above embodiment. The configuration of the display system 100 in this modified example is the same as the configuration of the display system 100 in the above embodiment.

[0053] In this modified example, the control unit 111 of the user terminal 11 stores and sets the authentication information (described later) necessary for user authentication in the storage unit 115, associating it with the authentication URL (described later) for user authentication. Here, the control unit 111 functions as a first setting unit. Furthermore, before retrieving the web page data stored on the web server 22, the control unit 111 performs user authentication using the authentication URL and authentication information. Here, the control unit 111 functions as an authentication unit. Furthermore, the storage unit 213 of the control terminal 21 of the second system 20 stores an authentication information list in which the authentication information of users who are permitted to view web pages is registered.

[0054] In step S4 of the web browser display process in this modified example, the control unit 111 executes the user authentication process shown in Figure 8. In the user authentication process, first, the control unit 111 obtains an authentication URL from the storage unit 115 that corresponds to the web browser selected in the selection unit 135 shown in Figure 3, and accesses the authentication URL (step S41). The authentication URL is pre-configured for each web browser. Figure 9 shows examples of authentication URLs corresponding to web browser (1) and web browser (2). Next, the control unit 111 receives login web page data from the second system 20 (step S42).

[0055] Next, the control unit 111 obtains authentication information from the storage unit 115 corresponding to the web browser selected in the selection unit 135 shown in Figure 3, and transmits the authentication information to the second system 20 (step S43). The authentication information is pre-configured by the control unit 111 and associated with the authentication URL. Figure 9 shows examples of authentication information corresponding to web browser (1) and web browser (2). Authentication information includes, for example, a user ID and password. Next, when the control unit 211 of the control terminal 21 receives authentication information from the radiology information system 10, it refers to the authentication information list stored in the memory unit 213 and determines whether the received authentication information is registered in the authentication information list. If the received authentication information is registered in the authentication information list, the control unit 211 sends authorization information, which is information that permits browsing the web page, to the radiology information system 10.

[0056] Next, when the control unit 111 receives authorization information from the second system 20, it accesses the access URL generated in step S3. Then, it receives the data of the web page stored in the web server 22 to which the access URL is attached (step S44), terminates this process, and proceeds to step S5 of the web browser display process.

[0057] Because the above user authentication process does not include authentication information in the authentication URL or access URL, security can be ensured. Furthermore, since the authentication information is automatically transmitted by the control unit 111, the effort of manually entering authentication information is eliminated. In addition, step S42 may be omitted in the above user authentication process.

[0058] (Modification 2) Next, a modified example 2 of the above embodiment will be described. The following will focus on explaining the differences from the above embodiment. The configuration of the display system 100 in this modified example is the same as the configuration of the display system 100 in the above embodiment.

[0059] In this modified example, the control unit 111 of the user terminal 11 sets the user terminal by associating a predetermined key operation (described later) with a predetermined process on a web page stored on the web server 22 and storing it in the storage unit 115 as abbreviated operation information. Here, the control unit 111 functions as a second setting unit. Furthermore, the control unit 111 outputs at least one of the patient information and examination information to the web page as a predetermined process on the web page. Here, the control unit 111 functions as a shortcut operation unit. Furthermore, it is assumed that the web browser (4) displayed in area J of Figure 10 does not have a basic URL set.

[0060] When a web browser without a basic URL is displayed on board 1310, and a user performs a predetermined key operation via the operation unit 112, the control unit 111 of the user terminal 11 obtains abbreviated operation information corresponding to that predetermined key operation from the storage unit 115. Then, based on the obtained abbreviated operation information, the control unit 111 obtains at least one of the patient information and examination information related to the examination selected in the examination list from the RIS server 12, and outputs the obtained information to the web page displayed by the web browser without a basic URL. The specified key operation refers to, for example, an operation using a shortcut key such as pressing the "F1 key" on the keyboard provided by the operation unit 112 by the user, or a mouse gesture. This abbreviated operation information refers to information indicating the process of outputting the patient ID related to the test selected in the test list to the input field Ja of a web browser (4) that does not have a basic URL set, as shown in Figure 10, when the user presses the "F1 key". In the example shown in Figure 10, "000001", which is the patient ID related to the test selected in the test list, is output to the input field Ja of the web browser (4). Furthermore, predetermined key operations in the abbreviated operation information, and predetermined processes on the web page that the control unit 111 executes when the predetermined key operations are performed, can be arbitrarily set.

[0061] This allows the information stored in the web server 22 to be searched and filtered using patient information and test information stored in the RIS server 12. Furthermore, even if a basic URL is not set, the RIS server 12 can use the patient information and test information stored thereto to display the corresponding web page.

[0062] As described above, according to the above embodiment, the display system 100 includes a WEB server 22 of the second system 20, and a display control device (user terminal 11) that displays information in the first system (radiology information system 10) and is connected to the WEB server 22 by a network N, and comprises a display control unit (control unit 111) that displays patient information and examination information on a display area (board 1310) of a display screen displayed on a display unit 113 that displays information in the first system, and an acquisition unit (control unit 111) that acquires related information regarding patient information or examination information from the WEB server 22, and the display control unit comprises a display control device that displays related information on the display area. Therefore, it is possible to more favorably display relevant information regarding patient information or examination information stored in the second system 20 in the display area of ​​the display screen shown in the display unit 113 of the first system.

[0063] Furthermore, according to the above embodiment, in the display system 100, the acquisition unit acquires relevant information from the data of the web page stored in the web server 22, and the display control device includes a storage unit (control unit 111) that stores at least a portion of the relevant information acquired from the web page data as patient information or examination information. Therefore, related information regarding patient information or test information stored in the second system 20 can be easily stored in the first system.

[0064] Furthermore, according to the above embodiment, in the display system 100, the second system 20 is an electronic medical record system, a PACS, a picture interpretation report system, or a dose management system. Therefore, relevant information regarding patient information or examination information stored in an electronic medical record system, PACS, image interpretation report system, or dose management system can be more preferably displayed in the first system.

[0065] Furthermore, according to the above embodiment, in the display system 100, the display control unit displays relevant information in the display area using a web browser. Therefore, by using a web browser, relevant information regarding patient information or examination information stored in the second system 20 can be easily displayed in the display area.

[0066] Furthermore, according to the above embodiment, in the display system 100, the display control unit displays the display area separately as a first display area for displaying patient information and examination information, and a second display area for displaying related information. Therefore, since patient information and examination information are not hidden by the web browser screen, it is possible to more favorably display relevant information regarding patient information or examination information stored in the second system 20 on the display unit 113 of the first system.

[0067] Furthermore, according to the above embodiment, in the display system 100, patient information includes at least one of the following: basic patient information, disability information, and contraindication information. Therefore, important information such as disorder information and contraindication information included in patient information is not hidden by the web browser screen, making it possible to more favorably display relevant information regarding patient information or examination information stored in the second system 20 on the display unit 113 of the first system.

[0068] Furthermore, according to the above embodiment, the display system 100 includes a first setting unit (control unit 111) that associates authentication information necessary for user authentication with an authentication URL for user authentication, and an authentication unit (control unit 111) that performs user authentication using the authentication URL and authentication information before acquiring data of the web page stored in the web server 22. Therefore, since authentication information is not included in the authentication URL or the access URL for accessing the web page, security can be ensured. In addition, since the authentication information is automatically transmitted by the control unit 111, the trouble of manually entering the authentication information is eliminated.

[0069] Furthermore, according to the above embodiment, the display system 100 includes a second setting unit (control unit 111) that associates predetermined key operations with predetermined processing on web pages stored in the web server 22. Therefore, information stored on the web server 22 can be displayed with simple operations.

[0070] Furthermore, according to the above embodiment, the display system 100 includes a shortcut operation unit (control unit 111) that outputs at least one of patient information and examination information to the web page as a predetermined process on the web page. Therefore, patient information and test results can be used to search and filter the information stored on the web server 22.

[0071] The descriptions in the above embodiments are examples of the display system according to the present invention and are not limited thereto. The detailed configuration and operation of each part constituting the system can also be modified as appropriate without departing from the spirit of the present invention.

[0072] For example, in step S3 of the web browser display process in the above embodiment, the control unit 111 replaced the predetermined string of the basic URL with the patient ID or examination number, but is not limited to this. It may also be replaced with information about the examination site as examination information. This allows images of standard imaging methods for each examination area, stored on the web server 22, to be displayed in the display area of ​​the display screen during examinations.

[0073] Furthermore, in the selection unit 134 shown in Figure 2 of the above embodiment, if "Execute," which is the board for performing imaging, is selected, the patient information and examination information displayed on the board are finalized when the board is opened. Therefore, in step S2 of the web browser display process, the control unit 111 obtains the patient information or examination information to be displayed on the board from the RIS server 12.

[0074] Furthermore, in the display system 100 of the above embodiment, the first system is the radiology information system 10, but it is not limited to this. The first system may be any of the dose management system 20A, the electronic medical record system 20B, the PACS 20C, or the image interpretation report system 20D. In this case, the radiology information system will be one of the second systems 20. Furthermore, the first and second systems are not limited to medical systems such as radiology information systems, dose management systems, electronic medical record systems, PACS, and image interpretation report systems; they may also be systems other than medical systems.

[0075] Furthermore, the programs for executing each process in each device may be stored on a portable recording medium. Alternatively, a carrier wave may be used as the medium for providing the program data via a communication line. [Explanation of symbols]
