Medical Information Processing System for Automated Support Image Generation
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current medical information processing systems rely on radiologists to manually create images for electronic medical records, which can be inefficient and may not effectively convey necessary information, especially when multiple images are involved.
Innovation Solution
A medical information processing system that uses processing circuitry to acquire medical data, analyze images, and generate support images automatically, including order images and non-order images, to facilitate diagnosis and information display in electronic medical records.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If radiologists manually create images for electronic medical records, then diagnostic information can be conveyed, but the process is inefficient and increases workload
Solution Approach 1:
The system enables self-service by automatically generating support images using processing circuitry that analyzes medical data and creates appropriate visualizations without requiring manual intervention from radiologists, thereby improving efficiency and reducing time loss
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces the mechanical manual process of radiologists creating images with an automated computational system using processing circuitry that performs image generation and analysis, substituting human manual work with automated technological processes
2Loss of information
If only one image is sent to electronic medical records, then the system is simple, but the single image may not contain all desired information
Solution Approach 1:
The system segments the image generation process into multiple specialized functions: generating support images for ordered subjects, analyzing unordered subjects, and creating non-ordered images for additional findings, allowing comprehensive information to be organized and presented systematically
Solution Approach 2:
The processing circuitry performs multiple functions within a single system: it generates support images for ordered subjects, analyzes unordered subjects, determines whether to generate non-ordered images, and transmits appropriate images to electronic medical records, thereby preventing information loss while managing complexity through integrated multi-functionality
Data Source
AI summary
A medical information processing system of an embodiment includes processing circuitry. The processing circuitry acquires medical data regarding a first target of a patient according to an examination order. The processing circuitry generates first support information for supporting diagnosis of the first subject on the basis of the medical data. The processing circuitry analyzes a second subject different from the first subject on the basis of the medical data. The processing circuitry generates second support information for supporting diagnosis of the second target on the basis of an analysis result of the second target. The processing circuitry causes a display unit to display at least the second support information between the first support information and the second support information.
