3D Medical Image Layer Display for Flexible MPR Viewing
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional medical image display methods lack flexibility and consistency in interaction and display, particularly in multi-planar reconstruction (MPR) images, limiting effective lesion observation and analysis.
Innovation Solution
A method and device for displaying medical images that determine an initial layer from three-dimensional volume data, receive viewing instructions, and adaptively display a target layer based on these instructions, allowing for continuous or discrete modes, and adjusting layer thickness and position to enhance interaction and display flexibility.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If conventional continuous display or discrete display is used for MPR planar image, then the display can be provided, but the consistency and flexibility of the display and interaction cannot be ensured
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements dynamic display by allowing the system to switch between continuous and discrete display modes based on user selection. The display mode is not fixed but can be changed dynamically, enabling the system to adapt to different viewing requirements while maintaining operational consistency through standardized interaction mechanisms.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the display parameter from fixed conventional display to variable display modes (continuous/discrete). By introducing a mode selection instruction that allows switching between different display parameters, the system achieves both flexibility in adapting to different needs and consistency through controlled parameter changes.
2Adaptability or versatility
If adaptive layer determination based on viewing instructions is implemented, then the flexibility and consistency of display and interaction are improved, but the system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the display system into distinct functional modules: initial layer determination module, viewing instruction receiving module, and target layer determination module. This segmentation allows each module to handle specific tasks independently, reducing overall system complexity while enabling flexible and consistent display through coordinated module operations.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent performs preliminary action by determining initial layers from three-dimensional volume data before receiving viewing instructions. This pre-processing step organizes the data structure in advance, making subsequent adaptive display operations simpler and more efficient, thereby reducing the complexity burden of real-time processing.
