Patent Images
1. A method programmed in a computing environment for utilizing an ontology-driven graphical user interface to generate knowledge-based report information, the method comprising:
- providing a connection to a domain specific ontology system, said domain specific ontology system providing domain specific graphical interface information;
providing an interface to at least one other system or application program;
creating and displaying on demand, constraint aware context sensitive and non-context sensitive menu items, diagrams, directions, suggestion and logic based on said domain specific graphical interface information for user interaction and selection; and
providing the knowledge-based report information associated with said user selections from said domain specific ontology system.

Abstract
A system and method are provided to generate knowledge-based radiological report information via an ontology driven graphical user interface. Even further, a system and method are provided that employ radiological report domain ontology to specify and model a graphical user interface knowledge that is used by the present invention to create a graphical user interface and then to exercise the graphical user interface to generate knowledge-based radiological report information.

4. A system for specifying and modeling a graphical user interface for use in generating a knowledge-based radiological report, the system comprising:
-
an ontology server; an ontology based graphical user interface module; and a modeled ontology configured to model and specify radiological information as a first knowledge type, said first knowledge type including a second knowledge type, said second knowledge type including information that specifies how to present said radiological information to said ontology based graphical user interface module, wherein said ontology server is loaded with said modeled ontology, said ontology server in operable communication with said ontology based graphical user interface module to receive requests for and provide graphical user interface information based on said second knowledge type information, and wherein said ontology based graphical user interface module is configured to display menus, diagrams and other information for selection by a user, by employing said second knowledge type information to generate the knowledge-based radiological report. - View Dependent Claims (5)

6. A method programmed in a computing environment for providing one or more graphical user interface elements and returning user selections of the one or more graphical user interface elements to an application program, wherein the application program is operable to collect mammographic radiological information, the method comprising:
-
utilizing an ontology server loaded with a modeled ontology, said modeled ontology modeling and specifying radiological information as a first knowledge base, said first knowledge base including a second knowledge base that defines the one or more graphical user interface elements and specifies how to present the one or more graphical user interface elements; utilizing an ontology based graphical user interface module; said ontology server in operable communication with said ontology based graphical user interface module to receive a request for graphical user interface information for a finding; said ontology server employing said second knowledge base to provide relevant ones of said one or more graphical user interface elements relating to said finding, to said ontology based graphical user interface module, wherein said ontology based graphical user interface module displays the received relevant ones of said one or more graphical user interface elements as objects for selection by a user, by employing said specification of how to present the one or more graphical user interface elements, wherein said ontology based graphical user interface module receives and utilizes a user selection of said relevant ones of said one or more graphical user interface elements relating to said finding, to obtain knowledge based information from said modeled ontology for the selected interface elements and thereby return and display one or more finding characteristics applicable to said finding, and wherein said finding and said one or more finding characteristics are provided to the application program.
