Radiographic Imaging Console Dynamic Display Switching
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Radiographic imaging systems often incorrectly associate radiographic images with radiographing order information due to unintended switching of focused displays, leading to improper association of images with intended radiographic imaging apparatuses.
Innovation Solution
A radiographic imaging system where the console receives signals from radiographic imaging apparatuses and updates radiographing order information to match the actual apparatus used, preventing unintended switching by distinguishing between different operations on the selection switch, such as short and long presses, to ensure accurate association of images with intended radiographic imaging apparatuses.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If the console automatically switches focused display based on radiographic imaging apparatus operation state, then radiographing efficiency is improved, but incorrect association between radiographic images and radiographing order information occurs
Solution Approach 1:
The console monitors the operation state of the radiographic imaging apparatus and provides feedback by switching the focused display icon accordingly. The system detects when a different apparatus is selected and automatically updates the focused icon to match the currently operating apparatus, ensuring the display reflects the actual system state in real-time.
Solution Approach 2:
The console pre-associates radiographing order information with specific radiographic imaging apparatuses based on apparatus identification. Before radiographing begins, the system prepares the focused display icon corresponding to the intended apparatus, ensuring that the correct image-information pairing is established in advance to prevent mismatches.
2Measurement precision
If the console switches focused display to match apparatus operation state, then operational accuracy is improved, but unintended switching occurs causing incorrect image association
Solution Approach 1:
The focused display icon dynamically updates based on the real-time operation state of the radiographic imaging apparatus. The system transitions the focused icon from one apparatus to another only when the operation state actually changes, ensuring that the display accurately reflects the current operating apparatus at any given moment.
Solution Approach 2:
The console continuously monitors apparatus operation state and provides feedback by updating the focused display icon. The system uses feedback loops to detect when apparatus selection changes and automatically adjusts the focused icon to match, preventing unintended switching and ensuring accurate image-information association.
Data Source
AI summary
Radiographic imaging system comprising an x-ray radiation source. Multiple radiographic imaging apparatuses, each including multiple radiation detecting elements, are arranged two-dimensionally, and configured to read charges generated in the radiation detecting elements as image data and transmit an image signal in response to a command. A console communicating with, controlling with a command the operation of, and receiving image signals from, the multiple radiographic imaging apparatuses and acquires multiple radiographing order information items indicating which of the multiple radiographic imaging apparatuses is to be used for conducting radiographing. Upon receiving the image signal from a first of the radiographic imaging apparatuses, the console determines from the multiple radiographing order information items a subsequent radiographing order item to be conducted by the first radiographic imaging apparatus, and sends a first command to the first radiographic imaging apparatus instructing it to conduct the subsequent radiographing order item.
