First Claim
1. A method of processing data comprising image data, video data, or image and video data pertaining to a medical procedure, the method comprising:
- using a computer system, receiving a video identification indicative of at least one of an imaging device and a video capture device that is to be a source of the data captured during the medical procedure that is to be processed;
with the computer system, receiving a patient identification indicative of an identity of a patient to be treated during the medical procedure;
with the computer system, receiving the data transmitted by the at least one of the imaging device and the video capture device, wherein the data is received without the identity of the patient;
establishing a relationship that links the data with the identification of the patient;
initiating application of at least one processing rule that, when complete, reduces a file size of the data from an original file size of the data as transmitted by the at least one of the imaging device and the video capture device; and
storing the data in combination with the identification of the patient in a manner compliant with a standardized medical imaging transmission format.

Abstract
Disclosed is a method of processing data pertaining to a medical procedure. The method includes receiving information indicative of at least one of an imaging device and a video capture device, and information indicative of an identity of a patient to be treated during the medical procedure. The data is received by the computer system without the identity of the patient. A relationship is established to link the data with the identification of the patient. Application of at least one processing rule is initiated to reduce a file size of the data from an original file size of the data as transmitted by the at least one of the imaging device and the video capture device. The data is stored in combination with the identification of the patient in a manner compliant with a standardized medical imaging transmission format.

10. A method of capturing data comprising image data, video data, or image and video data pertaining to a medical procedure, the method comprising:
-
using a computer system, receiving a video identification indicative of a video capture device that is to capture the data during a medical procedure; with the computer system, receiving a patient identification indicative of a patient to be treated during the medical procedure; transmitting information over a communication network for establishing the patient identification at the video capture device that is to capture the data, thereby allowing the video capture device to associate the patient identification with the data; with the computer system, receiving the data associated with the patient identification transmitted by the video capture device; and storing in a computer-accessible memory, the data associated with the patient identification transmitted by the video capture device, wherein a subsequent request for the data from the computer-accessible memory returns the data in combination with the patient identification. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14)

15. A method of processing data comprising image data, video data, or image and video data pertaining to a medical procedure, the method comprising:
-
using a computer system, receiving the data in a standardized medical image transmission format, wherein the standardized medical imagining transmission format comprises a patient identification in combination with the data; and with the computer system, initiating application of at least one processing rule that, when complete, reduces a file size of the data combined with the patient identification from an original file size of the data as received by the computer system.
