Medical information processing system for supporting diagnosis
First Claim
1. A medical information processing system for supporting diagnostic interpretation, which has a workstation having a storage unit for storing data, the system comprising:
- data storage means having a memory means for storing examination data of an object to be examined including interpretation data to be interpreted and interpretation reference data to be referenced during interpretation of the interpretation data, said data storage means being apart from the workstation;
data loading means comprising;
specifying means for specifying a priority order in loading of the interpretation reference data in conjunction with the given interpretation data; and
instructing means for instructing a workstation control means and a memory control means to load the interpretation data and the interpretation reference data from the memory means of the data storage means into the storage unit of the workstation, the interpretation reference data being loaded according to the priority order specified by the specifying means;
diagnostic information creating means for creating diagnostic information relative to the examination data loaded in the storage unit of the workstation;
diagnostic information comparing means for comparing a plurality of the diagnostic information with each other; and
diagnostic information output means for outputting at least one of the created diagnostic information and information concerning results compared by the diagnostic information comparing means.

Abstract
A medical information processing system for supporting diagnostic interpretation, featuring a data storage unit for storing an interpretation image and interpretation reference images for which a doctor will refer to interpret the interpretation image. A data loading unit loads the interpretation reference images from the data storage unit into a workstation unit according to a predetermined priority order. The data loading unit loads the images into a workstation which is selected from the workstation unit according to workstation vs. interpretation examination modality information. A diagnostic information creation unit creates diagnostic information relative to the image by inputting the doctor'"'"'s findings or computerizing with a computer unit. Positions of abnormalities and degrees of the abnormalities are determined, and positions in association with the images are calculated. A diagnostic information comparing unit compares the diagnostic information with each other and creates differences between the diagnostic information as time-sequential abnormality change data. A diagnostic information output unit outputs the diagnostic information or results of comparing the diagnostic information with each other and superimposes the contents of the time-sequential abnormality change data on the associated image. The diagnostic information output unit also outputs predetermined contents for an inconsistency of the diagnostic information for the doctor'"'"'s findings with the diagnostic information for the results of computerizing and includes a plurality of displays and automatically determines relational positions in which the images are displayed on the displays according to a predetermined relational information.
