Abstract

A medical image terminal device capable of performing radiography efficiently and preventing medical radiographing errors by setting correspondence of a patient to radiographing order information accurately and easily. The medical image terminal device has: a receiving section to receive identification information of a patient to be radiographed and radiographing order information including information regarding radiography; a storage section to store the radiographing order information received; an input section to input the identification information of the patient in; and a display control section to obtain the radiographing order information stored in the storage section based on the identification information of the patient input and display the radiographing order information on a display section.

Claims

1. A medical image terminal device comprising:

a receiving section to receive identification information of a patient to be radiographed and radiographing order information including information regarding radiography;

a storage section to store the radiographing order information received;

an input section to input the identification information of the patient in; and

a display control section to obtain the radiographing order information stored in the storage section based on the identification information of the patient input and display the radiographing order information on a display section.

2. The device of claim 1, wherein the display control section, when there are a plurality of radiographing order information obtained based on the identification information of the patient, displays the plurality of radiographing order information as a list on the display section.

3. The device of claim 1, wherein the device is a carriageable portable terminal device.

4. The device of claim 1, wherein when one among the radiographing order information displayed is chosen and cassette identification information is input, the device sets correspondence of the cassette identification information input to the radiographing order information chosen.

5. A medical image radiographing system comprising an information management apparatus to manage identification information of a patient to be radiographed and radiographing order information including information regarding radiography, and a medical image terminal device connected to the information management apparatus through a network,

wherein the information management apparatus comprises a transmitting section to transmit the radiographing order information,

the medical image terminal device comprises:

a receiving section to receive the radiographing order information;

a storage section to store the radiographing order information received;

an input section to input the identification information of the patient in; and

a display control section to obtain the radiographing order information stored in the storage section based on the identification information of the patient input, and display the radiographing order information on a display section.

6. The system of claim 5, wherein the display control section, when there are a plurality of radiographing order information obtained based on the identification information of the patient, displays the plurality of radiographing order information as a list on the display section.

7. The system of claim 5, wherein the medical image terminal device is a carriageable portable terminal device.

8. The system of claim 5, wherein when one among the radiographing order information displayed is chosen and cassette identification information is input, the medical image terminal device sets correspondence of the cassette identification information input to the radiographing order information chosen.

9. A display control method comprising:

receiving identification information of a patient to be radiographed and radiographing order information including information regarding radiography;

storing the radiographing order information received;

obtaining the radiographing order information stored based on the identification information of the patient input; and

displaying the radiographing order information obtained on a display section.

10. The method of claim 9, further comprising, when there are a plurality of radiographing order information obtained based on the identification information of the patient, displaying the plurality of radiographing order information as a list.

11. The method of claim 9, further comprising, when one among the radiographing order information displayed is chosen and cassette identification information is input, setting correspondence the cassette identification information input to the radiographing order information chosen.

12. A program, when the program is loaded onto a medical image terminal device to control display, the program making the medical image terminal device execute:

receiving identification information of a patient to be radiographed and radiographing order information including information regarding radiography;

storing the radiographing order information received;

obtaining the radiographing order information stored based on the identification information of the patient input; and

displaying the radiographing order information obtained on a display section.

13. The program of claim 12, further making the medical image terminal device execute, when there are a plurality of radiographing order information obtained based on the identification information of the patient, displaying the plurality of radiographing order information as a list.

14. The method of claim 12, further making the medical image terminal device execute, when one among the radiographing order information displayed is chosen and cassette identification information is input, setting correspondence of the cassette identification information input to the radiographing order information chosen.
