Data management system for patient data
First Claim
1. A data management system for patient data, comprising:
- a picture archival and communication system (PACS) having a functionality code segment and a first user interface code segment;
a radiology information system (RIS) having a functionality code segment and a second user interface code segment;
a container application having a first user interface layer in communication with the PACS and a second user interface layer in communication with the RIS, wherein the first and second user interface layers are configured to convert the first user interface code segment of the PACS and the second user interface code segment of the RIS to a uniform user interface and communicate patient data between the functionality code segments of the PACS and the RIS, respectively, and the uniform user interface such that the patient data of the functionality code segments of the PACS and the RIS are formatted in a common protocol; and
further wherein each of the PACS and the RIS include a workstation configured such that patient data can be communicated between the PACS and RIS workstations through the container application.

Abstract
According to an exemplary embodiment, a data management system for patient data includes a first component, a second component, and a container application. The first component has a functionality code segment and a user interface code segment. The second component has a functionality code segment and a user interface code segment. The container application has a first user interface layer in communication with the first component and a second user interface layer in communication with the second component. The first and second user interface layers are configured to communicate patient data between the functionality code segments of the first and second components, respectively, and a user interface.

10. A data management system for patient data, comprising:
-
a picture archival and communication system (PACS) for retrieving patient image data from a database and having a first user interface; a radiology information system (RIS) for processing patient text data and having a second user interface; a data manager in communication with the PACS and the RIS, wherein the data manager includes a user interface code segment in communication with the PACS and the RIS for converting the first user interface and the second user interface to a uniform user interface for receiving the patient image data and patient text data for generating display signals based on the patient image data and the patient text data for generating display signals based on the patient image data and the patient text data according to a predetermined display format, wherein the predetermined display format includes a common protocol for the patient image data and the patient text data; and further wherein each of the PACS and the RIS include a workstation configured such that patient data can be communicated between the PACS and RIS workstations through the data manager. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13)

14. A method of displaying patient data from a plurality of applications, comprising:
-
receiving patient image data using a picture archival and communication system (PACS) having a first user interface; receiving patient text data using a radiology information system (RIS) having a second user interface; converting the first user interface and the second user interface to a uniform user interface; configuring both the patient image data and patient text data according to a predetermined display format; displaying the configured patient image data and patient text data on the uniform user interface according to the display format such that the patient image data and the patient text data have the a common protocol; and communicating the configured patient image data and patient text data between the first user interface workstation and the second user interface through a container application when a user is not utilizing the uniform user interface. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19)
