Abstract

A display switch section switches a display mode at a time of displaying inspection images stored in a storage device in which folders including a hierarchical structure are created by selecting the display mode from a predetermined display mode and a list display mode. A folder selecting section selects one folder to be an origin of list display when the list display mode is selected and a control section causes, in a list display region, each inspection image stored in each folder belonging to a folder group with the one folder as the origin to be list-displayed and causes to be displayed, in addition in the list display region, information which makes a folder in which a file of the inspection image is present and a folder in which the file of the inspection image is not present visually identifiable, in each folder belonging to the folder group.

Claims

1. An endoscopic inspection image display control apparatus comprising a CPU which is configured to operate as:

a display switch section configured to switch a display mode at a time of displaying a plurality of endoscopic inspection images stored in a storage device in which a plurality of image folders arranged in a hierarchical structure are created, by selecting the display mode from one of a predetermined display mode and a list display mode;

an image folder selecting section configured to select one image folder to be an origin of list display from the plurality of image folders when the list display mode is selected by the display switch section; and

a control section that performs display control such that (i) an image folder selection region for displaying the plurality of image folders from which the one image folder is selected by the image folder selecting section, and (ii) an image display region for displaying each of endoscopic inspection image files stored in each image folder belonging to an image folder group with the one image folder as the origin, are simultaneously displayed in a first display area and a second display area, respectively,

wherein the control section further performs display control such that inspection result information, which is given to each endoscopic inspection image file to be displayed in the image display region, is displayed in the image display region.

2. The endoscopic inspection image display control apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the inspection result information is information given by an inspector.

3. The endoscopic inspection image display control apparatus according to claim 2, wherein the inspection result information is information given to a still image displayed when the inspector performs a freeze operation.

4. The endoscopic inspection image display control apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the control section further performs control such that a file name corresponding to the inspection result information is given to each of the endoscopic inspection image files and is displayed in the image display region.

5. The endoscopic inspection image display control apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the control section further performs control such that image data included in the endoscopic inspection image files and the inspection result information are displayed together in the image display region.

6. The endoscopic inspection image display control apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the control section further performs control such that a character string corresponding to the inspection result information is displayed in the image display region.

7. The endoscopic inspection image display control apparatus according to claim 6, wherein, when information indicating whether or not a given endoscopic inspection image file from among the endoscopic inspection image files can be used for a predetermined measurement is given to the given endoscopic inspection image file as the inspection result information, the control section further performs control such that the character string, which indicates whether or not execution of the predetermined measurement is possible using the given endoscopic inspection image file, is displayed in the image display region.

8. An endoscopic inspection image display control method comprising:

switching a display mode at a time of displaying, on a display, a plurality of endoscopic inspection images stored in a storage device in which a plurality of image folders arranged in a hierarchical structure are created, by selecting the display mode from one of a predetermined display mode and a list display mode;

selecting one image folder to be an origin of list display from the plurality of image folders when the list display mode is selected by the switching;

performing, by a processor, control of the display such that (i) an image folder selection region for displaying the plurality of image folders from which the one image folder is selected, and (ii) an image display region for displaying each of endoscopic inspection image files stored in each image folder belonging to an image folder group with the one image folder as the origin, are simultaneously displayed in a first display area and a second display area, respectively; and

performing, by the processor, control of the display such that inspection result information, which is given to each endoscopic inspection image file to be displayed in the image display region, is displayed in the image display region.

9. The endoscopic inspection image display control method according to claim 8, wherein the inspection result information is information given by an inspector.

10. The endoscopic inspection image display control method according to claim 9, wherein the inspection result information is information given to a still image displayed when the inspector performs a freeze operation.

11. The endoscopic inspection image display control method according to claim 8, further comprising performing, by the processor, control such that a file name corresponding to the inspection result information is given to each of the endoscopic inspection image files and is displayed in the image display region.

12. The endoscopic inspection image display control method according to claim 8, wherein in performing the control of the display by the processor, image data included in the endoscopic inspection image files and the inspection result information are displayed together in the image display region.

13. The endoscopic inspection image display control method according to claim 8, wherein in performing the control of the display by the processor, a character string corresponding to the inspection result information is displayed in the image display region.

14. The endoscopic inspection image display control method according to claim 13, wherein, when information indicating whether or not a given endoscopic inspection image file from among the endoscopic inspection image files can be used for a predetermined measurement is given to the given endoscopic inspection image file as the inspection result information, the processor performs further control such that the character string, which indicates whether or not execution of the predetermined measurement is possible using the given endoscopic inspection image file, is displayed in the image display region.
