Medical Examination Support Log Visualization
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing medical examination support systems fail to clearly display the relationship between automatic diagnosis support information and manual operation logs, making it difficult for doctors to easily grasp their diagnosis history.
Innovation Solution
A medical examination support apparatus that collectively displays automatic and manual operation logs in a time series, with the ability to vary display aspects based on quotation frequency, and extracts similar case images using the number of quotations as a parameter.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If diagnosis support information and manual operation logs are displayed separately, then the display structure is simple, but the relationship between automatic processing and manual operations cannot be clearly grasped
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines automatic processing logs and manual operation logs into a single integrated display interface. Both types of logs are shown together in chronological order, allowing doctors to view the relationship between automatic diagnosis support information and their manual operations in one place, rather than in separate interfaces.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent segments different types of logs (automatic processing logs and manual operation logs) with distinct visual indicators such as different icons, colors, or labels. This segmentation allows the system to maintain clarity and distinguishability between different log types while presenting them in a unified chronological sequence.
2Loss of information
If all log details are displayed simultaneously, then complete information is provided, but the display becomes complex and difficult to review at a glance
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a dynamic display system where log entries can be expanded or collapsed based on user interaction. Doctors can click to expand specific log entries to view detailed information, or collapse them to maintain a clean, overview-friendly display. This dynamic behavior adapts the information density to user needs.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent displays summary information for all log entries in the overview, and only shows detailed information for entries that the doctor chooses to expand. This partial display approach prevents information overload while maintaining access to complete information when needed.

AI summary
There is provided a medical examination support apparatus in which the history of diagnosis can be easily grasped at a glance, and an operation method and an operation program thereof. A screen output control unit (66) of a medical examination support server (12) generates a log display screen (95) and transmits the log display screen (95) to a client terminal (11). In a collective display region (97) in the log display screen (95), an APL block (99) and a MOL block (100) are collectively displayed in a time series in a distinguishable manner. The APL block (99) is a display block of an automatic processing log APL which is a history of automatically performing analysis processing on examination data obtained in a medical examination performed on a patient by a diagnosis support algorithm (30) to output a result of the analysis processing as diagnosis support information for supporting diagnosis of a doctor. The MOL block (100) is a display block of a manual operation log MOL which is a history of a manual operation of the doctor with respect to the examination data.
