Computer visualized drug interaction information retrieval
DCFirst Claim
1. A computer-implemented method for computer visualization of drugs for drug interaction information retrieval, comprising:
- acquiring, for each of multiple different substances, imagery of at least one external characteristic of a physical body of the substance;
determining an identity of each of the multiple different substances based upon the at least one external characteristic from the acquired imagery;
retrieving drug interaction data for each of the multiple different substances using the determined identities;
correlating, using a processor, drug interaction data for at least one of the multiple different substances with at least one other of the multiple different substances; and
displaying the correlated drug interaction data.

Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, system and computer program product for computer visualization of drugs for drug interaction information retrieval. In an embodiment of the invention, a method for computer visualization of drugs for drug interaction information retrieval can be provided. The method can include acquiring imagery of multiple different substances and detecting identifying content in each acquired image to determine an identity of each substance corresponding to each acquired image. The method also can include retrieving drug interaction data for each substance using the determined identity and correlating the drug interaction data for at least one of the substances with at least one other of the substances. Finally, the method can include displaying the correlated drug interaction data.
