Remote medical supporting system
First Claim
1. An operation supporting system, which support an operation by sending information on the operation, comprising:
- an imaging device for imaging a subject part of a patient and for outputting an image signal;
an information input device for inputting identification information of the patient;
a first controller for encrypting the identification information input from the information input device;
a sending device for sending an encrypted information encrypted by the first controller and the image signal output from the imaging device;
a receiving device for receiving the encrypted information and the image signal sent from the sending device;
a second controller for decrypting the encrypted information received by the receiving device; and
a display device for displaying the identification information decrypted by the second controller and the image signal from the receiving device.

Abstract
When a surgery and a remote control room in a remote location are connected through a communication circuit to perform an endoscope operation, image information is not encrypted and is sent as it is. Patient data including identification information, a name and so on relating to a patient is encrypted in an encrypting portion and then is sent. In the remote control room side receiving the patient data through the communication circuit, the patient data is decrypted by a decrypting portion when it is determined, based on the header portion, that the received data includes the patient data. Thus, the patient data is restructured and a structure, which can be displayed in a display device, including the image information can be obtained. As a result, the privacy of the patient data can be reserved, and the fast transmission can be achieved at low costs.
