The present invention relates to inspection information display device, method, and program for displaying inspection information such as a patient name, a gender, and an age associated with data on a patient such as a medical image.
In recent years, as medical devices such as a Computed Tomography (CT) device and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) have advanced, image diagnosis using medical images having higher quality and high resolution can be performed. In particular, in a case where a target portion is the brain, since a region having a vascular disorder such as cerebral infarction and cerebral hemorrhage can be specified by image diagnosis using CT images and MRI images, an appropriate treatment has been performed based on the specified result.
The medical image is analyzed by Computer-Aided Diagnosis (CAD) using a discriminator in which learning is performed by deep learning, and a bleeding region, an infarct region, and a bleeding volume in the brain, and an ischemic region in the heart are extracted. These regions are acquired as analysis results. As described above, an analysis result generated by analysis processing is stored in association with inspection information such as a patient name, a gender, an age, and a modality from which the medical image is acquired in a database, and is provided for diagnosis. At this time, a technician such as a radiologist who acquires the medical image decides a radiologist corresponding to the medical image, and informs the decided radiologist that there are the medical image and the analysis result using the CAD. The radiologist interprets the medical image and analysis result on his or her interpretation terminal while referring to the distributed medical image, and creates a radiology report.
In a case where the interpretation of the medical image is performed, an interpretation list of medical images to be interpreted is sent to an interpretation terminal. The interpretation list includes the aforementioned inspection information. As described above, a method of displaying a medical image to be desired to be interpreted first at the top of the interpretation list in a case where the interpretation list is displayed on the interpretation terminal has been suggested (see JP2007-094513A). A method of sorting the interpretation list according to a degree of severity of the patient and changing the allocation of the resource such as a nurse, an intern, a doctor, a technician, an intensive care specialist, or another healthcare professional based on the sorted result has been suggested (see JP2009-219867A).
Meanwhile, information necessary for creating the interpretation report such as a diagnosis name may not be able to be confirmed only from the medical image sent to the radiologist. The radiologist may determine that symptoms are so severe that an emergency operation is immediately required while looking at the medical image. In such a case, it is necessary for the radiologist to request treatments such as an inspection necessary to confirm the diagnosis name, capturing of a necessary medical image, and a care. In a case where the emergency operation is required, it is necessary to arrange an operating room, a surgeon, and a nurse. In order to perform such a request for the inspection and the treatment, it is necessary for the radiologist to confirm an availability situation of inspections, an availability situation of imaging rooms, an availability situation of operating rooms, schedules of surgeons, and schedules of nurses. Thus, a burden on the radiologist who arranges the inspection and the treatment is extremely large.
The present invention has been made in view of the aforementioned circumstances, and it is an object of the present invention to reduce a burden on an operator such as a radiologist at the time of arranging a necessary inspection and a necessary treatment by looking at inspection information.
An inspection information display device according to the present invention comprises a display controller that displays an inspection result obtained by analyzing data related to a patient and inspection information related to the data on a display unit, a decision unit that decides at least one of a necessary inspection or a necessary treatment for confirming the analysis result, and a resource information acquisition unit that acquires resource availability information for executing at least one of the necessary inspection or the necessary treatment. The display controller further displays the resource availability information on the display unit.

A program causing a computer to execute the inspection information display method according to the present invention may be provided.
Another inspection information display device according to the present invention comprises a memory that stores a command to be executed by a computer, and a processor configured to execute the stored command. The processor executes processing of displaying an analysis result obtained by analyzing data related to a patient and inspection information related to the data, deciding at least one of a necessary inspection or a necessary treatment for confirming the analysis result, acquiring resource availability information for executing the at least one of the necessary inspection or the necessary treatment, and displaying the resource availability information on the display unit.
According to the present invention, the analysis result obtained by analyzing the data related to the patient and the inspection information related to the data are displayed, and at least one of the necessary inspection or the necessary treatment for confirming the analysis result is decided. The resource availability information for executing at least one of the necessary inspection or the necessary treatment is acquired, and the resource availability information is further displayed. Thus, the operator can easily know the resource availability information required to execute at least one of the necessary inspection or the necessary treatment. Therefore, it is possible to reduce a burden on the operator such as the reservation of the resources.
Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
Each device is a computer on which an application program for functioning as a component of the medical information system 1 is installed. The application program is distributed while being recorded on a recording medium such as a Digital Versatile Disc (DVD) or a Compact Disc Read Only Memory (CD-ROM), and is installed on the computer from the recording medium. Alternatively, the application program is stored in a storage device of a server computer connected to a network or a network storage in a state of being accessible from the outside, and is downloaded and installed on the computer according to a request.
The modality 2 is a device that generates a medical image representing a diagnosis target portion by capturing the diagnosis target portion of the subject. Specifically, the modality is a CT device, an MRI device, and a Positron Emission Tomography (PET) device. The medical image generated by the modality 2 is transmitted to the image server 5 and stored.
The interpretation WS 3 includes the inspection information display device according to the first embodiment. A configuration of the interpretation WS 3 will be described below.
The clinical department WS 4 is a computer that is used by the doctor in the clinical department for the detailed observation of the image, browsing of the interpretation report, and creation of an electronic medical record, and includes a processing device, a high-definition display, and input devices such as a keyboard and a mouse. In the clinical department WS 4, each processing of a browsing request for an image to the image server 5, display of an image received from the image management server 5, automatic detection or emphasis display of a lesion-like portion in the image, and a browsing request of an interpretation report to the interpretation report server 7, and display of the interpretation report received from the interpretation report server 7 is performed by executing a software program for each processing.
The image server 5 is a general-purpose computer on which a software program for providing a function of a database management system (DBMS) having a relatively high processing capability is installed. The image server 5 has a large-capacity storage including the image database 6. This storage may be a large-capacity hard disk device connected to the image server 5 by a data bus, or may be a disk device connected to a Network Attached Storage (NAS) and a Storage Area Network (SAN) connected to the network 9. In a case where a registration request for the medical image from the modality 2 is received, the image server 5 prepares the medical image in a database format, and registers the medical image in the image database 6.
In the image database 6, image data of the medical image acquired in the modality 2 and accessory information are registered. The accessory information may include, for example, an image ID for identifying an individual medical image, a patient identification (ID) for identifying a subject, an inspection ID for identifying an inspection, a unique identification (UID) assigned to each medical image, an inspection date and an inspection time at which the medical image is generated, a type of the modality used in the inspection for acquiring the medical image, patient information such as a patient name, an age, and a gender, an inspection portion (imaging portion), imaging information (imaging protocol, imaging sequence, imaging method, imaging condition, and use of contrast agent), and information of a series number or a collection number in a case where a plurality of medical images is acquired in one inspection.
In a case where the browsing request from the interpretation WS 3 is received via the network 9, the image server 5 searches for the medical image registered in the image database 6, and transmits the extracted medical image to the interpretation WS 3 as the requesting party.
The interpretation report server 7 incorporates a software program that provides a function of a database management system to a general-purpose computer. In a case where a registration request for the interpretation report from the interpretation WS 3 is received, the interpretation report server 7 prepares the interpretation report in a database format, and registers the interpretation report in the interpretation report database 8.
For example, an interpretation report in which information such as an image ID for identifying the medical image to be interpreted, a radiologist ID for identifying an image radiologist who performs interpretation, a lesion name, positional information of a lesion, a medical opinion, and a degree of certainty of the medical opinion is recorded is recorded in the interpretation report database 8.
The network 9 is a wired or wireless local area network for connecting various devices in a hospital. In a case where the interpretation WS 3 is installed in another hospital or clinic, the network 9 may have a configuration in which local area networks of the hospitals are connected to each other via the Internet or a dedicated line. In any case, it is preferable that the network 9 has a configuration capable of realizing high-speed transfer of the medical images such as an optical network.
The resource management system 10 is a computer that manages facilities and personnel necessary for executing various treatment methods in the hospital, and includes a processing device, a display, and input devices such as a keyboard and a mouse. The resource management system 10 manages schedules of resources for performing inspections and treatments in the hospital such as schedules for first to third operating rooms 41 to 43, schedules for first and second inspection rooms 44 and 45, schedules for first and second treatment rooms 46 and 47, schedules of the plurality of modalities 2, doctors in the hospital, particularly, schedules of surgeons of surgeries, and schedules of nurses shown in
The management of the schedules of the first to third operating rooms 41 to 43 is performed based on inputs from terminals installed in the first to third operating rooms 41 to 43 and an input from a terminal of a doctor in charge of a patient to be operated. The inspection room is an inspection room for performing various inspections such as an electrocardiogram measurement and a blood inspection. Although it has been described in the present embodiment that two inspection rooms are provided, three or more inspection rooms may be provided. The management of the schedules of the first and second inspection rooms 44 and 45 is performed based on the inputs from the terminals set in the first and second inspection rooms 44 and 45 or the input from the terminal of the doctor in charge of the patient to be operated. The treatment room is a room for performing treatment and preparation using medication. Although it has been described in the present embodiment that two treatment rooms are provided, three or more treatment rooms may be provided. The management of the schedules of the first and second treatment rooms 46 and 47 is performed based on the inputs from the terminals set in the first and second treatment rooms 46 and 47 and the input from the terminal of the doctor in charge of the patient to be operated. The management of the schedules of the doctors and the nurses in the hospital is performed based on inputs from terminals of the doctors and the nurses. The management of the schedules of the modalities 2 is performed based on inputs from terminals of imaging rooms where the modalities 2 are installed and an input from a terminal of a doctor in charge of a patient to be imaged.
In the present embodiment, the first and second inspection rooms 44 and 45 and the modalities 2 are resources for executing the inspection. The first to third operating rooms 41 to 43, the first and second treatment rooms 46 and 47, and the doctors and the nurses are resources for executing the treatment.
The resource management system 10 manages resources using a resource management database.
Hereinafter, the interpretation WS 3 according to the present embodiment will be described in detail. The interpretation WS 3 is a computer to be used by the radiologist of the medical image for the interpretation of the medical image and the creation of the interpretation report, and includes a processing device, a high-definition display, and input devices such as a keyboard and a mouse. In the interpretation WS 3, various processing such as the browsing request for the medical image to the image server 5, various image processing on the medical image received from the image server 5, the display of the medical image, the automatic detection and the emphasis display of a structure and a lesion-like portion in the medical image by analyzing the medical image, support of the creation of the interpretation report, the registration request and the browsing request for the interpretation report to the interpretation report server 7, and interpretation report creation request, the registration request and the browsing request of the interpretation report to the interpretation report server, and the display of the interpretation report received from the interpretation report server 7 is performed by executing the software program for performing each processing. Since these processing is performed by a well-known software program, detailed description thereof is omitted herein. A separate image processing server and an analysis server may be connected to the network 9 without performing various image processing and the analysis of the medical image in the interpretation WS 3, and the image processing server and the analysis server may perform the various image processing and the analysis of the medical image according to the processing request from the interpretation WS 3.
The interpretation WS 3 includes the inspection information display device according to the first embodiment. Thus, the inspection information display program according to the first embodiment is installed on the interpretation WS 3. The inspection information display program is distributed while being recorded on a recording medium such as a DVD or a CD-ROM, and is installed on the interpretation WS 3 from the recording medium. Alternatively, the interpretation information display program is stored in the storage device of the server computer connected to the network or the network storage in a state of being accessible from the outside, and is downloaded and installed in the interpretation WS 3 according to a request.
The storage 23 includes a storage device such as a hard disk or a Solid State Drive (SSD). The storage 23 stores various information including the medical images and information necessary for processing of the inspection information display device 20, which is acquired from the image server 5 via the network 9.
The memory 22 stores the inspection information display program. The inspection information display program prescribes, as processing to be executed by the CPU 21, display control processing for displaying an analysis result obtained by analyzing data related to a patient, inspection information related to the data, and resource availability information to be described below on the display 24, decision processing for deciding at least one of necessary inspection or necessary treatment for confirming the analysis result, and resource information acquisition processing for acquiring the resource availability information for executing at least one of the necessary inspection or the necessary treatment. The inspection information display device 20 receives a notification that a new medical image to be interpreted is stored in the image server 5, and thus, these processing is performed.
The CPU 21 executes these processing according to the program, and thus, the computer functions as a display controller 31, a decision unit 32, and a resource information acquisition unit 33. Although it has been described in the present embodiment that the CPU 21 executes the functions of the units by the inspection information display program, a programmable logic device (PLD) which is a processor of which a circuit configuration is changeable after a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) is manufactured can be used as a general-purpose processor that functions as various processing units by executing software in addition to the CPU 21. The processing of each unit may be executed by a dedicated electric circuit which is a processor having a circuit configuration specifically designed to execute specific processing such as an Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC).
One processing unit may be constituted by one of these various processors, or may be a combination of two or more processors of the same type or different types (for example, a combination of a plurality of FPGAs or a combination of a CPU and an FPGA). A plurality of processing units may be constituted by one processor. As an example in which the plurality of processing units is constituted by one processor, first, one processor is constituted by a combination of one or more CPUs and software and this processor functions as the plurality of processing units as represented by a computer such as a client or a server. Second, a processor that realizes the functions of the entire system including the plurality of processing units by using one Integrated Circuit (IC) chip is used as represented by a System On Chip (SoC). As described above, the various processing units are constituted by using one or more of the aforementioned various processors as a hardware structure.
The hardware structure of these various processors is more specifically an electric circuitry in which circuit elements such as semiconductor elements are combined.
In a case where the interpretation WS 3 functions as a device that performs processing other than the inspection information display device 20, a program for executing this function is stored in the memory 22. For example, in a case where the analysis processing of the medical image is performed, an analysis program is stored.
The display controller 31 displays the analysis result obtained by analyzing the data related to the patient, the inspection information related to the data, and the resource availability information. Here, in the present embodiment, it is assumed that the data is the medical image acquired by capturing the patient by using the modality 2. The analysis result is acquired by the analysis program installed on the interpretation WS 3. For example, in a case where the medical image is a CT image of the brain, the analysis result includes a bleeding region, an infarct region, and a bleeding volume specified in the brain. The inspection information includes information such as a patient name, a gender, an age, and the modality from which the medical image is acquired. The inspection information is acquired from the image database 6. The display controller 21 displays the analysis result and the inspection information, as an interpretation list which is a list of the medical images to be interpreted. Since the interpretation list includes the resource availability information to be described below, the display of the interpretation list will be described below.
The decision unit 32 decides at least one of the necessary inspection or the necessary treatment for confirming the analysis result. Although it has been described in the present embodiment that both the necessary inspection and the necessary treatment are decided, only the necessary inspection or only the necessary treatment may be decided. Thus, the inspection information display device 20 according to the present embodiment stores a database in which the analysis result is associated with the inspection and the treatment in the storage 23. Hereinafter, this database is referred to as an inspection treatment database.
The decision unit 32 decides, as the inspection and the treatment necessary to confirm the analysis result, an inspection and a treatment other than the inspection and the treatment being already performed while referring the inspection treatment database DB2. For example, in a case where the imaging portion is the brain and the analysis result is bleeding and the inspection information is based on the medical image acquired by CT imaging, MRI imaging, medication, and surgery are decided as the necessary inspection and the necessary treatment for confirming the analysis result.
The resource information acquisition unit 33 acquires the resource availability information in order to execute the necessary inspection and the necessary treatment in order to decide the analysis result which is decided by the decision unit 32. Specifically, the resource information acquisition unit checks the schedules of the resources for executing the decided inspection and treatment, and acquires the resource availability information while referring to the resource management database DB 1 managed by the resource management system 10. For example, in a case where the decided inspection includes MRI imaging, a date and time at which the MRI imaging is executable is acquired as the availability information while referring to the schedule of the MRI device of the modality 2. In a case where the decided treatment includes medication, the schedules of the first and second treatment rooms 46 and 47 are checked, and a date and time at which medication is executable is acquired as the availability information. In a case where the decided treatment includes surgery, the schedules of the first to third operating rooms 41 to 43, a date and time at which the surgery is executable is acquired as the availability information while referring to the schedules of the surgeon and the nurse.
The display controller 31 displays the interpretation list including the analysis result and the inspection information, as described above.
The pop-up 51 includes reservation buttons 52A, 52B, and 52C for executing a reservation for each inspection and treatment. The pop-up 51 includes a minified picture 53 of the medical image. The radiologist can reserve the necessary inspection and treatment from the interpretation WS 3 by clicking the reservation button for the necessary inspection and treatment. The reservation of the necessary inspection and treatment is to transmit information indicating that the reservation for the resource for executing the inspection and the treatment is made. At this time, the radiologist can perform a certain degree of interpretation without displaying the medical image while referring to the minified picture 53 included in the pop-up 51. Therefore, the minified picture 53 can assist the radiologist in executing the reservation for the inspection and the treatment. Here, the information indicating that the reservation for the surgeon and the nurse is made is transmitted to the portable terminals 11 owned by the surgeon and the nurse.
The display controller 31 may display the interpretation list L1 on the display 24 before the resource availability information is acquired. In this case, after the resource availability information is acquired, the pop-up 51 indicating the necessary inspection and treatment is displayed due to the movement of the cursor 50.
Next, processing performed in the first embodiment will be described.
Subsequently, the decision unit 32 decides the necessary inspection and the necessary treatment for confirming the analysis result (step ST3), and the resource information acquisition unit 33 acquires the resource availability information for executing the inspection and the treatment decided by the decision unit 32 (step ST4). The display controller 31 displays the interpretation list L1 including the analysis result and the inspection information on the display 24 (step ST5). In this state, monitoring of whether or not the cursor 50 is moved to the column of the specific patient on the interpretation list L1 is started (step ST6). In a case where the result of step ST6 is positive, the display controller 31 displays the pop-up 51 indicating the resource availability information for executing the necessary inspection and the necessary treatment for confirming the analysis result for the patient to which the cursor 50 is moved (step ST7). In a case where the pop-up 51 is displayed, monitoring of whether or not a reservation instruction is issued for the inspection and the treatment decided by the decision unit 32 is started by using the reservation buttons 52A to 52C included in the pop-up 51 (step ST8). In a case where step ST8 is positive, the reservation for the instructed inspection and treatment is executed for the resource (step ST9), and the processing ends.
As described above, according to the present embodiment, it has been described that at least one of the necessary inspection or the necessary treatment for confirming the analysis result is decided, the resource availability information for executing the required inspection and the necessary treatment is acquired, and the resource availability information is displayed. Thus, an operator can easily know the resource availability information required for executing the necessary inspection and the necessary treatment for confirming the analysis result. Therefore, it is possible to reduce a burden on the operator such as the reservation of the resources.
Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described.
The degree of urgency is acquired by the analysis program installed on the interpretation WS 3. Specifically, the degree of urgency of the interpretation for the medical image is acquired based on the analysis result of the medical image. Thus, the analysis program decides the degree of urgency while referring to an urgency degree database in which various analysis results are associated with degrees of urgency. The urgency degree database is stored in the storage 23.
The degree of urgency may be decided by a discriminator in which learning is performed so as to input the analysis result and output an evaluation value for deciding the degree of urgency. The evaluation value expresses, for example, the degree of urgency as a value between 0 and 1. It is assumed that as the value becomes larger, the degree of urgency becomes higher. In this case, the degree of urgency is decided according to the evaluation value. For example, the degree of urgency is decided such that the evaluation value is 0 or more and is less than 0.33, the degree of urgency C is 0.33 or more and is less than 0.66, and the degree of urgency B is 0.66 or more and is 1.0 or less.
In a case where the degree of urgency is decided to be A, the resource reservation unit 34 executes the reservation for the resource for executing the necessary inspection and the necessary treatment in order to specify the analysis result which is decided by the decision unit 32. That is, the resource reservation unit executes the reservation of the resource while referring to the resource availability information acquired by the resource information acquisition unit 33. In a case where the degree of urgency is decided to be B or C, the resource reservation unit 34 does not execute the reservation of the resource for executing the necessary inspection and the necessary treatment in order to specify the analysis result.
In the second embodiment, the display controller 31 displays the degree of urgency on the interpretation list including the analysis result and the inspection information.
In the second embodiment, in a case where the radiologist considers that it is not necessary to execute the reservation of the resources for the necessary inspection and the necessary treatment for confirming the analysis result, the reservation of the reserved resource can be released by clicking the reservation completion button for the unnecessary inspection and treatments. The cancelation of the reservation of the unnecessary inspection and treatment is to transmit information indicating that the reservation is canceled for the reserved resource.
Next, processing performed in the second embodiment will be described.
Subsequently, the decision unit 32 decides the necessary inspection and the necessary treatment in order to decide the analysis result (step ST14), and the resource information acquisition unit 33 acquires the resource availability information for executing the inspection and the treatment decided by the decision unit 32 (step ST15). The resource reservation unit 34 performs the reservation of the resource according to the degree of urgency of the inspection and the treatment (step ST16). The display controller 31 displays the interpretation list L2 including the analysis result and the inspection information on the display 24 (step ST17). In this state, monitoring of whether or not the cursor 50 is moved to the column of the specific patient on the interpretation list L2 is started (step ST18). In a case where the result of step ST18 is positive, the display controller 31 displays the pop-up 51 indicating the resource availability information for executing the necessary inspection and the necessary treatment for confirming the analysis result for the patient to which the cursor 50 is moved (step ST19). In a case where the pop-up 51 is displayed, monitoring of whether or not a reservation cancelation instruction is issued for the inspection and the treatment decided by the decision unit 32 is started by using the reservation completion buttons 54A to 54C included in the pop-up 51 (step ST20). In a case where step ST20 is positive, the reservation cancelation instruction for the designated inspection and treatment is issued for the resource (step ST21), and the processing ends.
As described above, in the second embodiment, since the reservation of the resource is performed according to the degree of urgency of the necessary inspection and the necessary treatment for confirming the analysis result, the burden on the operator in a case where the reservation is performed can be reduced.
Since the reserved resource is canceled by the input of the operator, it is possible to prevent the unnecessary resource from being reserved forever, and thus, it is possible to allocate the resource to the person who needs the resource.
Although it has been described in the aforementioned second embodiment that the reservation is canceled by an instruction for the reservation completion buttons 54A to 54C, the degree of urgency may be changed as a result by interpreting the medical image by the radiologist. For example, in a case where the degree of urgency is A, the degree of urgency may be changed to B or C. As described above, in a case where the degree of urgency is changed from A to B or C by the radiologist, the resource reservation unit 34 may cancel the reserved reservation. In contrast, in a case where the degree of urgency of B or C is changed to A by the radiologist, the resource reservation unit 34 may perform the reservation of the resource for executing the treatment method.
Although it has been described in each of the aforementioned embodiments that the pop-up 51 indicating the resource availability information is displayed by issuing the instruction using the cursor 50 in the interpretation lists L1 and L2, the resource availability information may be displayed on the interpretation lists L1 and L2.
Although it has been described in each of the aforementioned embodiments that the decision unit 32 decides the necessary inspection and the necessary treatment for confirming the analysis result while referring to the inspection treatment database DB1, the necessary inspection and the necessary treatment for confirming the analysis result may be decided by the input of the operator from the input unit 25.
The burden on the operator in a case where the reservation of the resource is performed can be reduced by performing the reservation of the resource according to the degree of urgency of at least one of the necessary inspection or the necessary treatment.
The reserved resource is canceled according to the input of the operator, and thus, it is possible to prevent the unnecessary resource from being reserved forever. Accordingly, it is possible to allocate the resource to the person who needs the resource.
In a case where the data is the medical image, the medical image is displayed on the display unit, and thus, the operator can see the medical image. Accordingly, it is possible to determine the validity of the analysis result.
