Methods and systems for creation of hanging protocols using eye tracking and voice command and control
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method for creating a hanging protocol based on at least one of eye tracking and voice command and control input in a clinical environment, said method comprising:
- specifying creation of a hanging protocol specification to format, organize, and present clinical images on a display using user input including a combination of eye tracking and voice command and control to configure and control behavior of the hanging protocol, said specifying comprising;
specifying one or more of a modality, a body part, and a procedure for said hanging protocol using said user input;
specifying at least one monitor characteristic for use in said hanging protocol using said user input, said at least one monitor characteristic comprising at least one of a number of monitors, a monitor color and a monitor resolution; and
specifying at least one image box characteristic for one or more regions in a monitor using said hanging protocol using said user input, said at least one image box characteristic comprising a number of image boxes for a monitor region, a type of image box, a number of tiled images in an image box, and at least one image box parameter;
translating, using a processor, said input into a hanging protocol; and
facilitating, using a processor, display of clinical information based on said hanging protocol.

4. A computer-implemented method for hanging protocol creation and management using eye tracking and voice command and control input in a clinical environment, said method comprising:
-
initiating, using a processor, hanging protocol creation, the hanging protocol creation using a combination of eye tracking and voice command input; accepting user input to create a hanging protocol to format, organize, and present clinical images on a display using input including a combination of eye tracking and voice command and control to configure and control behavior of the hanging protocol, said creation comprising; specifying a body part for said hanging protocol using at least one of eye tracking and voice command input; specifying a clinical procedure for said hanging protocol using at least one of eye tracking and voice command input; identifying a number of monitors for use in said hanging protocol using at least one of eye tracking and voice command input; defining at least one of a monitor color and monitor resolution for one or more monitors in said hanging protocol using at least one of eye tracking and voice command input; specifying a number and type of image box for a viewing region in said one or more monitors in said hanging protocol using at least one of eye tracking and voice command input; specifying a number of images to be tiled in an image box in said hanging protocol using at least one of eye tracking and voice command input; translating, using a processor, said input into a hanging protocol; and saving said hanging protocol to facilitate, using a processor, display of clinical information based on said hanging protocol. - View Dependent Claims (5, 6)

7. A tangible computer-readable storage medium having a set of instructions for execution on a computer, said set of instructions comprising:
-
an input routine receiving user input to configure a hanging protocol for clinical information viewing, said user input including
1) eye tracking and
2) voice command and control to configure and control behavior of the hanging protocol to format, organize, and present clinical information on a display; anda hanging protocol configuration routine translating said user input into a hanging protocol for facilitating display of clinical information, wherein said hanging protocol configuration routine configures one or more of a modality, a body part, and a procedure for said hanging protocol based on said user input, wherein said hanging protocol configuration routine configures at least one monitor characteristic for use in said hanging protocol based on said user input, said at least one monitor characteristic comprising at least one of a number of monitors, a monitor color and a monitor resolution, wherein said hanging protocol configuration routine configures at least one image box characteristic for one or more regions in a monitor in said hanging protocol based on user input, said at least one image box characteristic comprising a number of image boxes for a monitor region, a type of image box, a number of tiled images in an image box, and at least one image box parameter. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9)
