2. the operation of first embodiment:
RIS 10 according to first embodiment constructs basically as mentioned above.Below, the operation of RIS 10 is described with reference to Fig. 6.
In order more easily to understand the present invention, suppose that radiation image capturing system 20 is not to be installed in the operating room shown in Figure 2 interior 31, and it is indoor to be mounted in the picture catching that is specifically designed to the seizure radiation image.
In step S1 shown in Figure 6, picture catching request input 12 receives from one picture catching request in surgeon 75 or the radiologic technologist.The date and the image capture conditions of catching radiation image specified in described picture catching request, the specification of the quantity of the radiation image of the angle of the zone, this zone that described image capture conditions comprises the imaging that need apply lonizing radiation X during by imaging, seizure, tube voltage, tube current, radiated time or the like and box 24 comprises the size and the sensitivity of box 24.If stored and be mutually related cuit in the box DB 17 in the RIS server 14, for example, be mutually related specification and other image capture conditions of imaging region, box 24, the picture catching request can show the image capture conditions of regulation still less so.The picture catching request is relevant with the patient's 71 that image is captured patient ID.When surgeon 75 or radiologic technologist input picture signal acquisition, surgeon 75 or radiologic technologist confirm to have formulated the register information that is used for radiation image capturing system 20 by the progress DB 18 of reference RIS server 14.
In step S2, details (specification that comprises box 24) and patient ID that picture catching request input 12 sends the picture catching request that receives give RIS server 14.
In step S3, the details (date that radiation image is captured and radiation capturing condition) and the patient ID of the picture catching request that RIS server 14 will send from picture catching request input 12 are recorded in the progress DB 18.If as mentioned above, stored the cuit that is mutually related in the box DB 17, then Guan Lian cuit also is recorded among the progress DB 18.
In step S4, RIS server 14 selects to meet the box 24 of image capture conditions by reference box DB 17, and writes down the box ID of selecteed box 24 in progress DB 18.
The data details that is stored among the progress DB 18 can be identified on the control station 30 of radiation image capturing system 20 at any time.That is to say, when execution in step S3, S4, if control station 30 is being visited the progress DB 18 of RIS server 14, then in step S5, RIS server 14 is supplied to control station 30 (that is the combination of the above-mentioned details of control station 30 downloads) with the combination of the details of picture catching request, patient ID and box ID.If radiation image can be caught immediately, then RIS server 14 can be initiatively sends to control station 30 with the details of picture catching request etc.Because the use of box 24 changes every now and then, therefore, should carry out immediately before radiation image begins to be captured, otherwise may be unable to supply box ID.
Based on the progress by 14 supplies of RIS server, radiologic technologist is caught patient 71 radiation image.Progress is presented on the display monitor of control station 30.Before first radiation image began to be captured, radiologic technologist was discerned the box 24 that is used to catch first radiation image according to the demonstration on the control station 30, and box 24 is set in the indoor given position of picture catching.Control station 30 is then set up the radio communication with the box of installing 24, and reads box ID from box 24 in step S6.For the radio communication between the box 24 of setting up control station 30 and installing, for example, control station 30 keeps sending box ID request signal with predetermined radio wave density, the intensity of described signal can be enough to set up radio communication in control station 30 peripheries with 3m are the scope of radius, till box 24 responses.When box 24 responses, set up radio communication between the box 24 of control station 30 and installation.
In step S7, the image capture conditions manager 98 (Fig. 5) of control station 30 (recognition unit) carries out cross reference to the box ID (actual box ID) of the box 24 that read from the actual box 24 that is placed on the picture catching chamber as the box ID (the box ID of regulation) of the box 24 of the box 24 that is intended for use in catching radiation image with by control station 30 by RIS server 14 regulations.
In step S8, if the box ID of the box ID of regulation and reality is not complementary, then control station 30 does not allow image capture device 22 to apply lonizing radiation X.Particularly, the image capture conditions manager 98 of control station 30 is used to suppress the signal that radiation source 74 applies lonizing radiation X to radiation source controller 78 transmissions of image capture device 22.Control station 30 shows the information of the inhibition that applies of indication lonizing radiation X on the display monitor of this control station, make control return step S6 subsequently.If the box ID of regulation and actual box ID match each other, then make control proceed to step S9.
Based on the demonstration of control station 30, radiologic technologist at first identifies the patient 71 who wants imaging, and the patient 71 who is discerned is cried into the picture catching chamber.In step S9, when the patient 71 who is discerned enters the picture catching chamber, near the patient ID reader 28 of inlet/outlet that is positioned at the picture catching chamber reads patient 71 patient ID by radio communication from patient's label 19 of patient 71, and the patient ID that reads is sent to control station 30.
In step S10,102 pairs of the patient information management devices of control station 30 are carried out to patient 71 the patient ID (the patient ID of regulation) of patient ID of picture as plan by RIS server 14 regulations and the patient ID (actual patient ID) that is read by patient's label 19 of the patient 71 of patient ID reader 28 from fact enter the picture catching chamber carries out cross reference.
If the patient ID of regulation and the patient ID of reality are not complementary, then in step S11, control station 30 does not allow image capture device 22 to apply lonizing radiation X.Particularly, the patient information management device 102 of control station 30 is used to suppress the signal that radiation source 74 applies lonizing radiation X to radiation source controller 78 transmissions of image capture device 22.Control station 30 shows the information that indication suppresses applying of lonizing radiation X on the display monitor of this control station, make control return step S9 subsequently.If the patient ID of regulation and actual patient ID match each other, then in step S12, control station 30 allows image capture device 22 to apply lonizing radiation X to catch patient 71 radiation image.
Step S6 can switch to step S8 and step S9 to step S11, perhaps can carry out simultaneously.
If the patient ID of regulation and the patient ID of reality are not complementary, but the combination of the box ID of actual patient ID and reality is suitable, perhaps in other words, if it is the patient's of imaging order is wrong, but the details of picture catching request is satisfactory, and then control station 30 can allow image capture device 22 to apply lonizing radiation X to catch patient 71 radiation image.
When finishing the seizure of radiation image in step S12, the radiation image information that box 24 obtains is sent to control station 30, and in step S13, control station 30 sends to RIS server 14 with radiation image information and the corresponding patient ID that receives.In step S14, the radiation image information that receives that RIS server 14 will be associated with patient ID is stored in the patient DB 16.The radiation image information that is stored in the patient DB 16 can be seen from picture catching request input 12.3. the advantage of first embodiment:
According to foregoing first embodiment, control station 30 reads the box ID that is stored in the box 24, the box ID of the regulation of sending with the box ID that reads (actual box ID) with from RIS server 14 checks, and determines whether to allow to carry out the seizure of radiation image according to the checked result of box ID.Because box ID reads on one's body from 24 in box, so box ID is detected reliably.Because control station 30 is checked the box ID of reality and the box ID of regulation, makes a mistake so prevent box 24 reliably.
In addition, Shi Ji box ID is read the control station 30 from box 24 by radio communication.Therefore, Shi Ji box ID is easy to read.
In addition, if control station 30 judges that the seizure of radiation image is not allowed to, and then stops radiation source 74 that lonizing radiation X is applied to patient 71.Therefore, if control station 30 judges that the seizure of radiation image should not be allowed to, then for higher safety, lonizing radiation X is stoped to be applied to patient 71 automatically.
In addition, the patient ID of the reality that control station 30 will read from the patient ID of the regulation of RIS server 14 supply with from patient's label 19 carries out cross reference, and determines whether to allow to carry out the seizure of radiation image according to the checked result of patient ID.As a result, prevent mistaken patient 71 reliably.
Because radiation image capturing system 20 is as comprising that the part of the RIS 10 of picture catching request input 12 and RIS server 14 is managed, so described radiation image capturing system uses easily and be effective.Because box ID and patient ID are managed by RIS server 14 jointly, so radiation image capturing system 20 also can use easily and effectively.
B. second embodiment:
1. with the difference of first embodiment:
Fig. 7 is the block diagram that shows the parts of according to a second embodiment of the present invention the 10A of radiation information system (below be also referred to as " RIS 10A ").RIS 10A is used for reading from box 24 the box ID reader 27 of box ID by radio communication except each radiation image capturing system 20a (below be also referred to as " image capture system 20a ") also comprises in addition, and is basic identical with the RIS 10 according to first embodiment.As image capture device 22, box 24, display device 26 and patient ID reader 28, box ID reader 27 can send signal to control station 30 and from control station 30 received signals by radio communication.
As shown in Figure 8, box ID reader 27 comprises Read Controller 85 and transceiver 87.Read Controller 85 adopts communication to send box ID request signal to box 24 by transceiver 87, and response box ID request signal receives the box ID that sends from box 24.Read Controller 85 adopts communication by transceiver 87 the box ID that receives to be sent to control station 30.For example, box ID reader 27 is positioned near the inlet/outlet of operating room 31.
Control station 30 has image capture conditions manager 98a, image capture conditions manager 98a compares mutually to specified the specification (hereinafter referred to as " actual specification ") of indicating reality to be used to catch the box 24 of radiation image by box ID reader 27 being used for of reading as the specification (hereinafter referred to as " necessary specification ") of the box 24 of the box 24 that is intended for use in catching radiation image and box ID by RIS server 14, determine according to the comparative result of box specification whether actual specification is complementary with necessary specification, and determine whether to allow to carry out the seizure of radiation image.
2. the operation of second embodiment:
RIS 10A according to second embodiment constructs basically as mentioned above.The operation of RIS 10A is described with reference to Fig. 9 and Figure 10 below.
In order more easily to understand the present invention, suppose that radiation image capturing system 20a is installed in the operating room shown in Figure 2 interior 31, and it is indoor to be mounted in the picture catching that is specifically designed to the seizure radiation image.
In step S21 shown in Figure 9, picture catching request input 12 from surgeon 75 or radiologic technologist receives the picture catching request.The date and the image capture conditions of the radiation image that will catch specified in described picture catching request, the quantity of the angle of the zone, this zone that described image capture conditions comprises the imaging that need apply lonizing radiation X during, the radiation image that will catch, tube voltage, tube current, radiated time or the like, and the size of box 24 (radiation detector 40) and sensitivity (necessary specification) by imaging.If stored inter-related cuit in the box DB 17 of RIS server 14, for example, the specification of the zone of inter-related imaging, box 24 and other image capture conditions, then the picture catching request can show the image capture conditions of regulation still less.The picture catching request is relevant with the patient's 71 that will catch image patient ID.When surgeon 75 or radiologic technologist input picture seizure request, surgeon 75 or radiologic technologist confirm to be provided for the register information of radiation image capturing system 20a by the progress DB 18 of reference RIS server 14.
In step S22, details (the necessary specification that comprises box 24) and patient ID that picture catching request input 12 sends the picture catching request that receives give RIS server 14.
In step S23, the details (radiation image is with the date and the radiation capturing condition that are captured) and the patient ID of the picture catching request that RIS server 14 will send from picture catching request input 12 are recorded in the progress DB 18.As having stored inter-related cuit in the compartmentalized box for holding assorted fruits and candies DB17, as previously mentioned, then Guan Lian cuit also is recorded among the progress DB 18.
The data details that is recorded among the progress DB 18 can be identified on the control station 30 of radiation image capturing system 20a at any time.That is to say, when execution in step S23, if control station 30 is being visited the progress DB 18 of RIS server 14, then in step S24, RIS server 14 is supplied to control station 30 (that is the combination of the above-mentioned details of control station 30 downloads) with the details (the necessary specification that comprises box 24) of picture catching request and the combination of patient ID.If should catch radiation image immediately, then RIS server 14 can be initiatively sends to control station 30 with the details of picture catching request etc.
Based on the progress by 14 supplies of RIS server, radiologic technologist is caught patient 71 radiation image.Progress is presented on the display monitor of control station 30.Before first radiation image began to be captured, radiologic technologist was discerned the box 24 that is used to catch first radiation image according to the demonstration on the control station 30, that is, and and the necessary specification of box 24.When each box 24 not in use the time, box 24 is positioned over outside the picture catching chamber and is under the energy saver mode.In this energy saver mode, box controller 46 can receive the particular outer signal, and radiation detector 40 is not supplied electric power and can not detects radiation.When radiologic technologist was brought the box of selecting 24 into the picture catching chamber, in step 25, box ID reader 27 read the box ID of box 24.In order to make box ID reader 27 read box ID from box 24, for example, box ID reader 27 keeps sending box ID request signal with predetermined radio wave density, this signal can be by force to being enough in box ID reader 27 peripheries with 1m are the scope of radius, to set up radio communication, till box 24 responds.When box 24 (box controller 46) received box ID request signal from box ID reader 27, box 24 was transformed into normal mode from energy saver mode, and in described normal mode, radiation detector 40 is supplied electric power and can detects radiation.
In step S26, the box ID that 27 transmissions of box ID reader read is to control station 30, and control station 30 sends to RIS server 14 with the box ID that receives.
In step S27, RIS server 14 reads the specification (actual specification) of the box 24 that is associated with the box ID that sends from control station 30 from box DB 17.In step S28, RIS server 14 sends the actual specification that reads to control station 30.
In step S29, the image capture conditions manager 98a of control station 30 compares mutually to being specified by RIS server 14 as the specification (necessary specification) of the box 24 of the box 24 that is intended for use in catching radiation image with the specification (actual specification) of the corresponding box 24 of box ID that is read by the box 24 of box ID reader 27 from fact be placed on the picture catching chamber, and determine whether actual specification is suitable, that is, whether actual specification is identical with necessary specification or more be better than necessary specification.
If actual specification is less than necessary specification, then in step S31, control station 30 does not allow image capture device 22 to apply lonizing radiation X.Particularly, the image capture conditions manager 98a of control station 30 is used to stop radiation source 74 to apply the signal of lonizing radiation X to radiation source controller 78 transmissions of image capture device 22.Control station 30 shows indication to the information that applying of lonizing radiation X stops on its display monitor, make control return step S25 subsequently.If actual specification is identical with necessary specification or more be better than necessary specification, then step S32 is returned in control.
Based on the demonstration on the controller 30, radiologic technologist at first identifies the patient 71 that will be carried out to picture, and the patient 71 who is discerned is cried into the picture catching chamber.When the patient 71 of identification enters the picture catching chamber, in step S32, near the patient ID reader 28 of inlet/outlet that is positioned at the picture catching chamber reads this patient's patient ID from patient's label 19 of patient 71, and the patient ID that reads is sent to control station 30.
In step S33,102 pairs of the patient information management devices of control station 30 are carried out to patient 71 the patient ID (the patient ID of regulation) of patient ID of picture as plan by RIS server 14 regulations and the patient ID (actual patient ID) that is read by patient's label 19 of the patient 71 of patient ID reader 28 from fact enter the picture catching chamber carries out cross reference.
If the patient ID of regulation and the patient ID of reality are not complementary, then in step S34, control station 30 does not allow image capture device 22 to apply lonizing radiation X.Particularly, the patient information management device 102 of control station 30 is used to stop radiation source 74 to apply the signal of lonizing radiation X to radiation source controller 78 transmissions of image capture device 22.Control station 30 shows indication to the information that applying of lonizing radiation X stops on its display monitor, make control return step S32 subsequently.If the box ID of regulation and actual wireless box ID coupling, then control station 30 allows image capture device 22 to apply lonizing radiation X to catch patient 71 radiation image.
Step S25 can switch to step S31 and step S32 to step S34, perhaps can carry out simultaneously.
If the patient ID of regulation and the patient ID of reality are not complementary, but the combination of the box ID of actual patient ID and reality is suitable, or in other words, if it is wrong to be carried out to patient's the order of picture, but the details of picture catching request is satisfactory, then control station 30 can allow image capture device 22 to apply lonizing radiation X, to catch patient 71 radiation image.
When finishing the seizure of radiation image in step S35, the radiation image information that box 24 obtains is sent to control station 30, and control station 30 sends to RIS server 14 with radiation image information and the corresponding patient ID that receives in step S36.In step S37, RIS server 14 is stored in the radiation image information that receives in the patient DB 16 together with patient ID.The radiation image information that is stored in the patient DB 16 can be seen from picture catching request input 12.
When finish the seizure of radiation image in step S35 after, in step S38, whether the patient that control station 30 monitoring radiation images have been captured has left the picture catching chamber.If the patient that radiation image has been captured does not also leave the picture catching chamber, then in step S39, control station 30 does not allow to carry out the seizure of next radiation image.For example, control station 30 sends to image capture device 22 and is used to stop radiation source 74 to apply the signal of reflected ray X.Alternatively, control station 30 is warning in its display monitor or display device 26, to allow the patient picture catching chamber that speeds away.If in step S38, control station 30 judges that the patient that radiation image has been captured has left the picture catching chamber, and then control proceeds to step S40.
Whether control station 30 can enter or leave the picture catching chamber as the patient that judges: when patient ID reader 28 reads the patient ID of particular patient first, control station 30 can judge that this patient has entered the picture catching chamber, and when patient ID reader 28 read this patient's patient ID once more, control station 30 can judge that this patient has left the picture catching chamber.Alternatively, patient ID reader 28 can have two read sensors, and reads the order of patient ID according to two read sensors, and control station 30 can determine whether the patient enters or leave the picture catching chamber.Particularly, for example, an inner read sensor of conduct in two read sensors is near the positioned internal of picture catching chamber, and another read sensor is as the outside location of outside read sensor near the picture catching chamber.In this case, when outside read sensor reads patient ID early than inner read sensor, control station 30 can be judged the patient and enter the picture catching chamber, and when inner read sensor read patient ID early than outside read sensor, control station 30 can be judged the patient and leave the picture catching chamber.
In step S40, whether control station 30 monitoring have captured the box 24 of radiation image and have been with from the picture catching chamber.If control station 30 judges that the box 24 that has captured radiation image also is not with from the picture catching chamber, then the same with step S39, in step S41, control station 30 does not allow to carry out the seizure of next radiation image.If control station 30 judges that the box 24 that has captured radiation image is with from the picture catching chamber, then control proceeds to step S42, and in step S42, control station 30 allows to carry out the seizure of next radiation image.Control station 30 can determine whether box is with from the picture catching chamber by the mode identical with step 38.
3. the advantage of second embodiment:
According to foregoing second embodiment, the necessary specification of box 24 and the actual specification of box 24 compare mutually, and determine whether to allow to catch radiation image according to the comparative result of box specification.Therefore, prevented that reliably box 24 from making a mistake.
According to the comparative result of the specification of box 24 and the checked result of patient ID, if control station 30 judges that the seizure of radiation images is not allowed to, then control station 30 stops 74 couples of patients 71 of radiation sources to apply lonizing radiation X.Therefore, if control station 30 judges that the seizure of radiation image is not allowed to, and then is applied on the patient 71 for higher safety stops lonizing radiation X automatically.
Identical with necessary specification or more be better than necessary specification as the actual specification of compartmentalized box for holding assorted fruits and candies 24, then control station 30 allows lonizing radiation X is applied to patient 71.Therefore, though when actual specification different with necessary specification, but when being better than necessary specification, also allow lonizing radiation X is applied to patient 71.Therefore, even have only the box of the reality of a few types to obtain, when satisfying necessary specification, also can in these boxes, catch radiation image.
When box 24 when box ID reader 27 receives box ID request signal, box 24 switches to normal mode from energy saver mode.Therefore, when box 24 was not caught radiation image, the power consumption of box 24 reduced.
30 pairs of input control stations 30 of control station be carried out to as plan picture patient 71 patient ID regulation patient ID and be fed to control station 30 and carry out cross reference as the patient ID of the reality of the patient's 71 of imaging patient ID in fact.Therefore, prevent that reliably patient 71 is not by mistaken.
