[Configuration of small-scale diagnostic system 1]
FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing a system configuration of a small-scale diagnosis system 1 in the present embodiment.

  The small-scale diagnosis system 1 is applied to a relatively small medical facility such as a practitioner or a clinic. The small-scale diagnosis system 1 includes a modality 2, an image display device 3, a reception device 4, an imager 5, a general-purpose printer 6, a client PC (Personal Computer) 7, and an inspection data management system 8. Each device constituting the small-scale diagnosis system 1 is connected to a communication network (hereinafter simply referred to as “network”) 9 such as a LAN (Local Area Network) via a switching hub (not shown), for example. The image display device 3 is preferably a WS (workstation) provided in an examination room where a doctor is resident. The WS that operates as the image display device 3 may be configured to control activation of each modality 2, processing conditions, and the like.

  In general, DICOM (Digital Image and Communications in Medicine) standard is used as a communication method in a hospital, and DICOM MWM (Modality Worklist Management) or DICOM MPPS (DICOM MPPS) is used for communication between devices connected to a LAN. Modality Performed Procedure Step) is used. Note that the communication method applicable to this embodiment is not limited to this.

[Device configuration of each device of the small-scale diagnosis system 1]
Hereinafter, each apparatus which comprises the small-scale diagnosis system 1 is demonstrated.
The modality 2 captures an image of a region to be diagnosed by a patient as a subject, and digitally converts the captured image to generate a medical image. A medical image is an image used for interpretation diagnosis in the medical field.

The modality 2 includes a CR (Computed Radiography) device, an ultrasonic diagnostic device (US), an FPD (Flat Panel Detector), and the like. The modality 2 is not limited to this. For example, an endoscope, MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging), or the like may be provided as the modality 2. A modality 2 may be a digital camera or the like that captures the appearance of the body such as the skin.
Furthermore, it is good also as a structure provided with two or more apparatuses of the same kind, for example, including two ultrasonic diagnostic apparatuses. Further, the combination of the devices constituting the modality 2 provided in the small-scale diagnosis system 1 is not limited to the above example.

In the present embodiment, the modality 2 has a function of giving image attribute information such as UID, imaging date / time, examination ID, and examination site to each medical image in a format conforming to the DICOM standard. That is, a medical image is input from the modality 2 to the image display device 3 in a state where these pieces of image attribute information are given.
The UID is a unique ID for specifying a medical image in the small-scale diagnosis system 1. Similarly, a UID is assigned to a specimen test image image created in a specimen test image image creation process to be described later.

The modality 2 includes an input unit (not shown) such as a keyboard having character input keys, numeric input keys, and the like, and inputs patient information for specifying a patient to be imaged from the input unit.
Patient information includes patient ID, patient name (kanji), patient name (kana), patient name (ASCII), gender, date of birth, age, etc., medical treatment date, imaging time, reception number, physician in charge, etc. The patient information input in Modality 2 includes, for example, patient ID, patient name (kanji), patient name (kana), patient name (ASCII), gender, and date of birth. is there. Note that it is not necessary to input all of them in the modality 2, and it is possible to not input any patient information. When the modality 2 has a specification for inputting only a patient ID as patient information, the input unit of the modality 2 may be a numeric keypad, for example.

The image attribute information and the patient information are incidental information attached to the medical image generated by the modality 2. The modality 2 transmits a medical image to the image display device 3 via the network 9 in a DICOM file format conforming to the DICOM standard. The DICOM file is composed of an image part and a header part. In the image portion, image data of a medical image is written, and in the header portion, incidental information related to the medical image is written.
If the modality 2 is a device that does not conform to the DICOM standard, such as a digital camera, the modality 2 transmits a medical image in the JPEG format to the image display device 3. In this case, the UID is given to the medical image on the image display device 3 based on the shooting date and time of the medical image.

  The image display device 3 is installed in, for example, an examination room, stores a medical image generated by the modality 2 in association with patient information in an image DB (Data Base) 331, or a doctor displays an image or the like to interpret an image. Or a device with a higher definition than a monitor (display unit) used in a general PC.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the image display apparatus 3 includes a control unit 31, a RAM 32, a storage unit 33, an operation unit 34, a display unit 35, a communication unit 36, a media drive 37, and the like. 38 is connected.

  The control unit 31 is configured by a CPU (Central Processing Unit) and the like, reads various programs such as a system program and a processing program stored in the storage unit 33, expands them in the RAM 32, and performs a specimen test described later according to the expanded programs. Various processes including an image image creation process (see FIG. 9) and a detailed screen display process (see FIG. 15) are executed.

  The RAM 32 forms a work area for temporarily storing various programs executable by the control unit 31 read from the storage unit 33, input or output data, and the like in various processes controlled by the control unit 31.

  The storage unit 33 includes an HDD (Hard Disk Drive), a semiconductor nonvolatile memory, or the like. In addition to storing various programs as described above, the storage unit 33 is used to adjust parameters (details will be described later) used in a specimen test image image creation process, which will be described later, and medical images to an image quality suitable for diagnosis. Image processing parameters (look-up table defining tone curves used for tone processing, enhancement degree of frequency processing, etc.) are stored. Further, the storage unit 33 stores patient information input by the receiving device 4 or the like.

  The storage unit 33 also includes a sample test DB 330 that stores various types of information related to the test results of the sample received from the test data management system 8. The test result of the sample is numerical data (measurement value) of each test item related to the sample obtained by the test data management system 8. Hereinafter, this numerical data is referred to as specimen test data. The specimen test data is stored in a specific format file (hereinafter referred to as a message) created in CSV (Comma Separated Values) format or the like. The image display device 3 receives a message from the inspection data management system 8 via the network 9. The received message is stored in the specimen test DB 330.

[Message data format]
Hereinafter, the message received by the image display device 3 from the inspection data management system 8 will be described in detail.
FIG. 3A shows an example of the data format of the message. As shown in FIG. 3A, the message includes a “message ID” field, a “sample test ID” field, a “patient information” field, a “collection date” field, a “classification” field, a “test item” field, and a “measurement”. Value "field and the like. In the message, sample test data and patient information related to the sample test data are stored in association with each other. The patient information stored in the message is patient information registered in the examination data management system 8 and may not match the patient information registered in the modality 2 or the image display device 3. For example, in the case of a patient who did not shoot a medical image with modality 2 and only performed a blood test or urine test with test data management system 8, patient information is not registered in modality 2 or image display device 3, Patient information is registered only in the examination data management system 8. Hereinafter, in order to distinguish, the patient information registered in the modality 2 or the image display device 3 is referred to as patient information A, and the patient information registered in the examination data management system 8 is referred to as patient information B.

In the “message ID” field, an ID uniquely assigned to the message is stored. The “specimen test ID” field stores an ID uniquely assigned to the sample test performed on the patient.
In the “patient information” field, various types of patient information related to the specimen test are stored. Further, the “patient ID” field, the “patient name (kanji)” field, the “patient name (kana)” field, the “patient name (ASCII)”. ) "Field," gender "field, and" birth date "field.
The date and time when the sample is collected is stored in the “collection date and time” field.
The “classification” field stores a classification corresponding to the specimen test data included in the message. The classification is a test corresponding to the collected sample, for example, a blood test if the sample is blood, and a urine test if the sample is urine.
In the “inspection item” field, an inspection item corresponding to the classification is stored. In other words, when the value of the “classification” field is “urine test”, each test item (“urine light white qualitative”, “urine occult blood”, etc.) that produces a result by the urine test is stored, and the classification is “blood” In the case of “test”, each test item (“total protein”, “inorganic phosphorus”, etc.) for which a result is obtained by the blood test is stored.
The “measurement value” field stores the measurement value of the inspection result of each inspection item.

  The message is composed of one or a plurality of records, and each record stores sample test data for each test item of the sample classification. For example, as shown in FIG. 3A, at the message transmission timing, the result of the urine test of the patient “Test Taro” and the result of the blood test of the patient “Saburo Yamada” are the test data management system 8. If a new message is registered, a record corresponding to these two inspection results is included in one message.

Even when samples are collected at the same date and time, the date and time when a test result is obtained may vary depending on the classification and the test item. For example, even when blood and urine are collected in one test, the date and time when the blood test results are obtained may be different from the date and time when the urine test is performed. In this case, since the timing at which the blood test result and the urine test result are registered in the test data management system 8 is different, a message including the blood test result and a message including the urine test result are sent to the image display device 3. The transmission timing is also different.
For example, a patient named “Test Taro” conducts a blood test and a urine test at “10:00 on June 15, 2008”, and when the message in FIG. However, if the result of the blood test is not obtained, as shown in FIG. 3A, the message includes only the record corresponding to the test result of the urinalysis of “Test Taro”.

FIG. 3B shows a message transmitted to the image display device 3 when a new inspection result is obtained. The example illustrated in FIG. 3B illustrates a case where the blood test result of “Test Taro” is obtained after the message illustrated in FIG. 3A is transmitted to the image display device 3. Although the blood test results are newly available, they are collected at the same collection date and time as the urine tests for which results have already been obtained and are the same test, so the “sample test ID” field, “patient information” field, and In the “collection date / time” field, the same value as the record of “test Taro” in the message shown in FIG. In the “Category” field, the value of “blood test” that has been newly obtained this time is stored, and in the “Message ID” field, a value different from the message shown in FIG. 3A is stored.
That is, a test performed on the same patient at the same collection date and time is a single test, and in the received message, the values of “patient ID” and “collection date and time” (“sample test ID”) match each other. Indicates the same inspection.

Returning to FIG. 2, the sample test DB 330 stores a message received from the test data management system 8 via the network 9. The specimen examination DB 330 also includes a received message table T1 that stores the message ID of the received message, a specimen examination data table T2 that stores specimen examination data included in the message, and a parameter table that stores parameters relating to the configuration of the specimen examination image image. T4 etc. Details of these parameters and parameter table T4 will be described later.
Although a detailed configuration example will be described later, the specimen test image image is obtained by imaging the specimen test data included in the message received from the test data management system 8 based on the parameters stored in the storage unit 33. Yes, for example, an image in which the specimen test data is graphed or represented in a table.

FIG. 4 shows an example of the received message table T1. As shown in FIG. 4, the received message table T1 has a “message ID” field, an “not fetched flag” field, and the like. Each time a new message is received from the test data management system 8, the received message table T1 stores a message ID associated with the message ID of this message.
The unacquired flag is a flag that indicates whether or not the specimen test data included in the message has been imaged by a specimen test image image creation process to be described later and a specimen test image image has been created, and is given for each message ID. The
In the data storage example shown in FIG. 4, the sample test data included in the message with the message ID “3” is generated by the sample test image image generation process, but the message ID is “4”. The included specimen test data indicates that a specimen test image has not yet been created.
The received message table T1 may store information such as the date and time when the examination data management system 8 transmits a message to the image display device 3 and the date and time when the image display device 3 receives the message.

  FIG. 5A shows an example of the specimen test data table T2. As shown in FIG. 5A, the sample test data table T2 includes a “sample test ID” field, a “patient information” field, a “collection date” field, a “classification” field, a “test item” field, and a “test item”. It has an “unread flag” field, a “measurement value” field, and the like. In the sample test data table T2, the sample test data included in the message in which the sample test image image is created by the sample test image image creation process described later among the messages corresponding to the message ID stored in the reception message table T1. Corresponding to the patient information A, it is sequentially stored for each specimen test ID.

In the “inspection item unread flag” field, an inspection item unread flag indicating whether or not the measurement value (inspection result) of each inspection item is displayed on the display unit 35 is stored.
When the specimen test image image created in the specimen test image image creation process described later is displayed on the display unit 35, the value of the “test item unread flag” field corresponding to the test item included in the specimen test image image is “Unread” is changed to “Read”. The test items included in the sample test image image are test items imaged by the sample test image image, and in this embodiment, graph display test items of parameters (FIGS. 12A to 12C) to be described later. The inspection items included in the inspection item and the inspection item included in the table inspection item.

[Operation of Image Display Device 3]
Next, the operation of the image display device 3 will be described in detail.
FIG. 9 shows a flowchart of a specimen test image image creation process executed by the control unit 31 at time intervals stored in the storage unit 33 in advance. The specimen test image creation process is executed in cooperation with the control unit 31 and a program stored in the storage unit 33.

  First, the message stored in the sample examination DB 330 of the storage unit 33 and the received message table T1 are read (step S1). Next, the received message table T1 is referred to, and it is determined whether there is new specimen test data (step S2). In step S2, the “unacquired flag” field of the received message table T1 read in step S1 is referred to. If there is a record whose value is “unacquired”, a new sample is obtained. If it is determined that there is examination data and all the values of this field are “acquired”, it is determined that there is no new specimen examination data.

  When it is determined that there is new sample test data (step S2; YES), the number of new sample test data is acquired (step S3). The new sample test data is a sample test having the same sample test ID among the sample test data included in the message in which the value of the “not loaded flag” field of the received message table T1 is “not loaded”. It is a collection of data, and the number of new specimen test data is the number of specimen test IDs with different values included in this message. In the example of message data storage in FIG. 3B and the example of data storage in the received message table T1 in FIG. 4, the number of new sample test data is one with the sample test ID “40”.

  Next, 1 is substituted into the counter variable i (step S4), and it is determined whether there is unprocessed extracted data (step S5). The unprocessed extracted data is new sample test data in which a sample test image is not created in step S7 to be described later among the new sample test data. In step S5, if the counter variable i is larger than the number of new specimen test data, it is determined that there is no unprocessed extracted data. If the counter variable i is equal to or less than the number of new specimen test data, the unprocessed extracted data is determined. It is judged that there is.

  When it is determined that there is unprocessed extracted data (step S5; YES), a captured patient determination process is executed (step S6).

  FIG. 10 shows a flowchart of the acquisition patient determination process executed by the control unit 31 in step S6 of FIG. The acquisition patient determination process is executed in cooperation with the control unit 31 and a program stored in the storage unit 33.

  First, patient information A stored in the storage unit 33 is acquired (step S601). Next, it is determined whether or not the patient ID corresponding to the unprocessed extracted data has been registered (step S602). In step S602, if a patient ID corresponding to unprocessed extracted data exists in the patient information A stored in the storage unit 33, it is determined that the patient ID has been registered. It is determined that the ID has not been registered.

  When it is determined that the patient ID has been registered (step S602; YES), it is determined whether or not to compare the patient information A stored in the storage unit 33 with the patient information B corresponding to the unprocessed extracted data. (Step S603). In step S603, a value indicating whether or not to compare patient information is stored in the storage unit 33 in advance, and by referring to this value, it is determined whether or not to compare patient information. This value can be changed by an input from the operation unit 34.

  When it is determined that the patient information A stored in the storage unit 33 is compared with the patient information B corresponding to the unprocessed extracted data (step S603; YES), the patient information A and the patient information B are compared ( Step S604). Specifically, the patient name (kanji), patient name (kana), patient name (ASCII), gender, and date of birth corresponding to the unprocessed extracted data, and the patient information A stored in the storage unit 33 Of these, the patient name (kanji), patient name (Kana), patient name (ASCII), gender, and date of birth of the patient with the matching patient ID are compared.

As a result of the comparison of the patient information in step S604, it is determined whether or not the patient information matches (step S605). When it is determined that the patient information matches (step S605; YES), the specimen examination image image created based on the unprocessed extracted data is set as the specimen examination image image corresponding to this patient (patient ID of this patient) Return value is also stored in the RAM 32 (step S606).
If it is not determined that the patient information matches (step S605; NO), a return value indicating that the specimen test image image created based on the unprocessed extracted data is an undetermined image is stored in the RAM 32 (step S607). .

  On the other hand, when it is not determined that the patient ID has been registered (step S602; NO), it is determined whether or not a new patient is registered (step S608). Here, the registration setting for a new patient refers to a setting for whether or not to newly store (register) patient information B corresponding to unprocessed extracted data as patient information A in the storage unit 33. In step S608, a value indicating whether or not to register a new patient is stored in advance in the storage unit 33, and it is determined whether or not new patient registration is set by referring to this value. This value can be changed by input from the operation unit 34.

If it is determined that registration of a new patient is set (step S608; YES), unprocessed extracted data and corresponding patient information B are stored as new patient information A in the storage unit 33, and the patient information is registered. (Step S609). Next, a return value (including the patient ID of the patient) indicating that the specimen examination image image created based on the unprocessed extracted data is the specimen examination image image corresponding to the registered patient is stored in the RAM 32. (Step S610).
On the other hand, if it is not determined that the registration setting for the new patient is made (step S608; NO), the process proceeds to step S607, and the specimen test image image created based on the unprocessed extracted data is set as an unconfirmed image. A return value indicating that is to be stored is stored in the RAM 32.

Returning to FIG. 9, when the capture patient determination process described above is performed, an image creation process is executed (step S7).
FIG. 11 shows a flowchart of the image creation process executed by the control unit 31 in step S7 of FIG. The image creation process is executed in cooperation with the control unit 31 and a program stored in the storage unit 33.

  First, parameters stored in advance in the storage unit 33 are read out and stored in the RAM 32 (step S71). The parameter is a parameter related to each item such as a graph constituting the specimen test image image. For example, information indicating the scale width of the vertical axis of the graph, the test item displayed in the graph, the test item displayed in the table, etc. It is. Each value of this parameter can be changed in advance by input from the operation unit 34. The parameter whose value has been changed becomes a valid parameter when the specimen image creation process is executed next.

FIG. 12A shows an example of parameters relating to the display form of the graph included in the specimen test image image. This parameter is, for example, the upper limit value and lower limit value of the normal zone of the graph, the maximum number of display days indicating the number of examinations of the collection date and time to be displayed simultaneously (hereinafter referred to as the number of extracted data), the vertical width of the graph, and the like.
FIG. 12B shows an example of parameters relating to the inspection items to be displayed in a graph (referred to as graph display inspection items) and the line color of the graph indicating the data of the inspection items. FIG. 12C shows an example of parameters of inspection items to be displayed in a table (referred to as table inspection items).
In step S <b> 71, each of the parameters shown in FIGS. 12A to 12C stored in the storage unit 33 is read and stored in the RAM 32.

  Next, a specimen test image image and a thumbnail image are created based on this parameter and stored as a temporary file in the RAM 32 (step S72).

Hereinafter, the specimen test image image created in step S72 and the specific processing in step S72 will be described.
FIG. 13 shows an example of the specimen test image image 352 created in step S72. The specimen test image 352 includes a collection date / time 201, a graph legend 202, a graph 203, a test item list 204, a table 205, and the like.
The collection date / time 201 is the value of the “collection date / time” field of the message corresponding to the unprocessed extracted data. The graph legend 202 displays a graph legend corresponding to the parameter graph display inspection item. The graph 203 is displayed by drawing a graph of the inspection item corresponding to the parameter graph display inspection item with a line of a predetermined color. The examination item list 204 displays a list of specimen examination data. The table 205 displays a table of inspection items corresponding to parameter table inspection items.

In step S72, first, a record in which the patient ID and the patient ID corresponding to the unprocessed extracted data match is extracted from the records stored in the specimen test data table T2. Of the extracted records, the number of records obtained by subtracting 1 from the number of parameter extraction data is further extracted in the order of the value of the “collection date” field. Specimen test data and unprocessed extracted data included in these records are imaged according to parameters to create a specimen test image. When there is a record in the sample test data table T2 in which the collection date corresponding to the unprocessed extracted data and the value of the “collection date / time” field are the same, both the sample test data and the unprocessed extracted data of this record are stored. The included specimen test data is imaged and a specimen test image is created.
In the example of the specimen test image image 352 illustrated in FIG. 13, the number of extracted data is five. In other words, the sample test data (measurement values) of each test item of the five most recent sample tests including unprocessed extracted data are represented by the graph 203 and the table 205.

  Returning to FIG. 11, parameters relating to the created specimen test image are created and stored as a temporary file in the RAM 32 (step S73). The parameter relating to the specimen inspection image is the parameter determined in step S71.

  Returning to FIG. 9, it is determined whether or not a specimen test image image having the same collection date and time as the specimen test image image created in step S7 (ie, the same test) has been created (step S8). Specifically, from the messages stored in the sample examination DB 330, a record corresponding to the unprocessed extracted data in which the sample examination image image is created in step S7, the “patient ID” field, and the “collection date” field Records with the same value of are retrieved, and in the received message table T1, a record in which the value of the “unacquired flag” field associated with the message ID of the retrieved record is “acquired” In some cases, it is determined that a sample examination image image with the same collection date and time has been created. If there is no such record, it is determined that a sample examination image image with the same collection date and time has not been created.

  When it is determined that the sample examination image image with the same collection date and time has been created (step S8; YES), the UID of the sample examination image image with the same collection date and time is acquired from the image information table T3, and the parameter table T4 is obtained. By referring to this, it is determined whether or not this specimen test image is unread (step S9). Specifically, among the records in the parameter table T4 (details will be described later), the record corresponding to the UID of the specimen test image image with the same collection date and time is referred to, and the value of the “image unread flag” field of this record is referred to. Thus, it is determined whether or not the specimen test image image with the same collection date and time is unread. Note that the UID of the specimen examination image image with the same collection date / time corresponds to the specimen examination image image in the “patient ID” field and the “imaging date / time” field of the image information table T3 (that is, corresponding to unprocessed extracted data). It is obtained by referring to the “UID” field of the record that matches the patient ID and the collection date and time.

  Returning to FIG. 9, when it is determined that the sample test image images of the same collection date and time have not been read (step S <b> 9; YES), unprocessed extracted data and unprocessed extracted data are stored in the sample test data table T <b> 2. Various corresponding information (specimen test ID, patient information A, etc.) is stored (step S10).

  FIG. 5B shows an example of the specimen test data table T2 in which unprocessed extracted data is stored. The example shown in FIG. 5B is a case where the specimen examination image image creation process is executed in the case of the message data storage example shown in FIG. 3B and the reception message table T1 data storage example shown in FIG. An example in which unprocessed extracted data is stored in step S10 is shown. Sample test data of “blood test” of “Test Taro” shown in FIG. 4 is stored in the sample test data table T2.

Next, the specimen test image image and the thumbnail image created in step S72 are overwritten and stored in the storage unit 33 (step S11). Specifically, the specimen test image image and thumbnail image of the UID acquired in step S9 are overwritten and saved by the specimen test image image and thumbnail image created in step S72.
Further, the parameter saved in the RAM 32 in step S71 is stored in the parameter table T4, whereby the parameter is updated (step S12).

FIG. 14 shows an example of the parameter table T4. As shown in FIG. 14, the parameter table T4 includes a “UID” field, an “image unread flag” field, a “graph display inspection item” field, a “table inspection item” field, a “normal zone upper limit value” field, a “normal zone” A “lower limit value” field, a “maximum display days” field, a “vertical width” field, and the like. The parameter table T4 stores parameters of each specimen test image image created by the specimen test image image creation process. The parameter table T4 is stored with the UID and the image unread flag added to the parameter acquired in step S71.
Of the values stored in the “graph display inspection item” field shown in FIG. 14, the values shown in parentheses are the line colors of the graph.

The UID is a UID assigned to the created specimen test image.
The image unread flag is a flag for identifying whether or not the specimen test image image corresponding to the record is displayed on the display unit 35. When the specimen test image displayed in the image display field 73 of the viewer screen 351 is displayed on the display unit 35 by, for example, clicking on the input from the operation unit 34, the image unread flag of the sample test image is set to “unread”. Will be changed to "Read".
In step S12, the parameter table T4 is referred to, and each parameter stored in the record corresponding to the specimen inspection image before being overwritten in step S11 is replaced with the parameter stored in the RAM 32 in step S73.

  Returning to FIG. 9, various pieces of information related to the specimen test image image overwritten and stored in step S11 are registered in the image information table T3 (step S13). Specifically, registration is performed by overwriting various types of information (examination site) related to the specimen examination image of the record in which the UID acquired in step S9 matches the “UID” field of the image information table T3.

On the other hand, when it is not determined that the sample examination image image with the same collection date is already in the storage unit 33 (step S8; NO), or when it is not determined that the sample examination image image with the same collection date is unread (step S8). S9; NO), the unprocessed extracted data and various information (sample test ID, patient information A, etc.) corresponding to the unprocessed extracted data are stored in the sample test data table T2 (step S14). A UID is assigned to the specimen test image image created in step S7, and is stored in the storage unit 33 according to the return value of step S6 together with the thumbnail image (step S15). If the return value stored in the RAM 32 in the captured patient determination process in step S6 indicates “corresponding patient data” or “registered patient data”, the specimen examination image image is stored in a predetermined folder of the image DB 331. If an “indeterminate image” is indicated, it is stored in the indeterminate image region of the image DB 331.
Next, the parameter stored in the RAM 32 in step S71 is associated with the UID assigned to the specimen test image and stored as a new record in the parameter table T4, so that the parameter is added (step S16). ).

  Next, various pieces of information related to the specimen test image image newly stored in step S15 are registered in the image information table T3 (step S17). Specifically, a new record is created in the image information table T3, and the UID given in step S15 is associated with various information (patient ID, etc.) related to the sample examination image and stored in this record. . If the return value stored in the RAM 32 in the captured patient determination process in step S6 indicates “corresponding patient data” or “registered patient data”, the patient ID of this patient is stored, and the “indeterminate image” ", No value is stored in the patient ID. The “image storage destination” stores the location (storage destination) where the image is stored in step S11 or step S15.

Next, the counter variable i is incremented by 1 (step S18), and the process returns to step S5.
On the other hand, if it is not determined that there is unprocessed extracted data (step S5; NO), the unacquired flag of the received message table T1 corresponding to the message ID of the unprocessed extracted data is set to “acquired” (step S19). ), The process ends.
If it is not determined that there is new specimen test data (step S2; NO), the process ends.

  FIG. 8 shows an example of a viewer screen 351 displayed on the display unit 35 when a specimen test image image is created by the specimen test image image creation process. As shown in FIG. 8, the specimen examination image image created by the specimen examination image image creation process is displayed in the image display field 73. Similarly, the thumbnail created by the specimen examination image image creation process is displayed in the thumbnail image display field 74. An image is displayed.

  In FIG. 15, when a display instruction for a detailed screen (specimen test detail screen) of the specimen test image image displayed in the image display field 73 by the operation unit 34 is input to the control unit 31, the control unit 31 executes the instruction. 6 shows a flowchart of the detailed screen display process. The detailed screen display instruction is input by, for example, double-clicking the specimen test image displayed in the image display field 73 with the mouse of the operation unit 34. The detailed screen display process is executed in cooperation with the control unit 31 and the program stored in the storage unit 33.

  First, the parameter table T4 stored in the specimen examination DB 330 is read, and the parameters used when creating the specimen examination image image to which the instruction to display the detailed screen is input are stored in the RAM 32 (step S20). Specifically, the record in which the UID of the specimen test image image in which the instruction to display the detailed screen is input (that is, double-clicked) is acquired from the image information table T3 and the value in the “UID” field of the parameter table T4 matches. Is referred to, the parameters used to create the specimen test image are acquired and stored in the RAM 32.

  Next, the specimen test data table T2 of the specimen test DB 330 is read, and the patient specimen test data (here, classification, test item, measurement value) corresponding to the sample test image image to which the instruction to display the detailed screen is input, and The collection date and time is stored in the RAM 32 (step S21). Specifically, the patient ID corresponding to the sample examination image image to which the instruction to display the detailed screen is input is acquired from the image information table T3, and the value stored in the “patient ID” field of the sample examination data table T2 is this value. The specimen test data and the collection date and time of the record that matches the acquired patient ID are stored in the RAM 32.

Next, based on the parameters stored in the RAM 32 in step S20 and the sample test data stored in the RAM 32 in step S21, the sample test detail screen 353 is displayed on the display unit 35 (step S22).
Here, the specimen examination detail screen has two display modes: a normal mode and an anchor mode. The normal mode is a mode in which a graph, a table, and a test item list are displayed with the same configuration as the specimen test image image displayed in the image display field 73. The anchor mode is a mode for displaying a graph, a table, and a list of test items based on sample test data after a specified reference date and time. A sample test detail screen 353 shown in FIG. 16 is a screen displayed in the normal mode. A specimen test detail screen 354 shown in FIG. 17 is a screen displayed in the anchor mode.

As shown in FIG. 16, the specimen test detail screen 353 includes a patient ID 301, a patient name 302, a gender 303, a birth date 304, a collection date 305, a graph legend 306, a graph 307, a test item list 308, a table 309, and an anchor display. A button 310, an anchor designation field 311, a print button 312, an add button 313, a return button 314, and the like.
The collection date / time 305, the graph legend 306, the graph 307, the examination item list 308, and the table 309 are the collection date / time 201, the graph legend 202, the graph 203, and the examination item list of the specimen examination image image 352 to which the instruction to display the detailed screen is input. 204 and Table 205 are the same, and the description is omitted.
The anchor display button 310 is a button for switching the anchor mode ON / OFF. The anchor designation column 311 is a column for designating the reference date and time in the anchor mode. The print button 312 is a button for printing the display content of the sample examination detail screen by the general-purpose printer 6. The add button 313 is a button for instructing the control unit 31 to save the display content of the sample test detail screen 353 as a new sample test image. The return button 314 is a button for returning to the viewer screen 351.

  When the anchor display button 310 is switched ON by the operation unit 34 (step S23; YES), it is determined whether an anchor designation is input by the operation unit 34 (step S24). The anchor designation means that a date and time serving as a reference date and time in the anchor mode is designated from the anchor designation column 311. If it is determined by the operation unit 34 that no anchor designation has been input (step S24; NO), a message prompting anchor designation is displayed in a pop-up on the sample examination detail screen 353 (step S25), and the process returns to step S24. .

  If it is determined that the anchor designation is input by the operation unit 34 (step S24; YES), whether or not there is sample test data whose collection date and time is earlier than the reference date and time specified for anchor in the sample test data stored in the RAM 32. Is determined (step S26). When it is determined that there is sample test data whose collection date is earlier than the reference date specified for anchor in the sample test data stored in the RAM 32 (step S26; YES), the graph 307 and the table after the date specified for anchor are displayed. The display target date and time of 309 is stored in the RAM 32 (step S27), and the process proceeds to step S28. If it is determined that there is no sample test data whose collection date and time is earlier than the reference date and time designated as anchor in the sample test data stored in the RAM 32 (step S26; NO), the process proceeds to step S28.

  In step S28, from the sample test data stored in the RAM 32, the test item at the reference date and time designated as an anchor (that is, the test item of the sample test data whose “collection date and time” matches the reference date and time) is acquired. The display items of the list 308 are stored in the RAM 32 (step S28). Of the graph display inspection items and table inspection items acquired in step S20, items included in the inspection items acquired in step S28 are stored in the RAM 32 as display items of the graph 307 and table 309 (step S29). . Based on the specimen test data, display target date, and display items stored in the RAM 32, the anchor mode specimen test detail screen 354 is displayed (step S30).

  On the sample test detail screen 354, as shown in FIG. 17, the sample test data of the collection date and time after the reference date and time designated by the anchor on the sample test detail screen 353 are displayed in the graph 307 and the table 309 in time series. If the number of specimen test data after the anchor designated reference date and time is greater than the number of frames in the graph 307 and the table 309, the specimen test data on the date not displayed is displayed according to the operation of the scroll bar at the bottom of the table 309. Can be displayed. Specimen test data collected at the anchor designated reference date and time is fixedly displayed in the leftmost column. When the scroll bar is operated, the display objects in the second to fifth columns from the left change according to the operation. Is done. If the second specimen test data from the left is no longer the specimen test data collected after the reference date and time designated as anchor by the operation of the scroll bar, there is a test performed between these tests (that is, In order to indicate that the data is not continuous, the point indicating the value of the reference date and time and the point on the right are displayed without being connected by a line. In the graph 307 and the table 309, specimen test data before the reference date and time designated as anchor is not displayed.

  In addition, in the graph 307, the table 309, and the examination item list 308 of the specimen examination details screen 354, only examination items performed on the reference date and time designated by the anchor are displayed. In addition, the specimen test data 308b of the reference date and time designated by the anchor is displayed together with the specimen test data 308a of the date and time that is the display target of the test item list 308.

When the add button 313 is pressed by the operation unit 34 on the sample test detail screen 354, a sample test image image of the display content of the sample test detail screen 354 may be created and stored in the image DB 331. In the case of such a configuration, the following processing is executed by the control unit 31 in response to pressing of the add button 313. The parameter table T4 described above further includes an “anchor date” field for storing the anchor designated reference date and time.
First, a sample test image image and a thumbnail image of the display contents of the sample test detail screen 354 are created, and a new UID is assigned to the created sample test image image and registered and stored in the image DB 331. A display instruction for a detailed screen is input to the “imaging date” field, “examination ID” field, “examination site” field, and “patient ID” field of the image information table T3 (double-clicked on the viewer screen 351). The same value as the record of the specimen inspection image is stored.
Next, a new record is added to the parameter table T4, and the parameters of the created specimen inspection image are stored. Specifically, the assigned UID is stored in the “UID” field. “Unread” is stored in the “image unread flag” field. In each of the fields “graph display inspection item” and “table inspection item”, inspection items included in the created specimen inspection image (that is, display items stored as display items in the RAM 32) are stored. In the fields of “normal zone upper limit value”, “normal zone lower limit value”, “maximum display days”, and “vertical width”, the values of the fields corresponding to the parameters acquired in step S20 are stored. In the “anchor date and time” field, a reference date and time designated as an anchor is stored.

  Returning to FIG. 15, when the anchor display button 310 is switched OFF by the operation unit 34 on the sample examination detail screen 354 (step S31; YES), the display target date and time of the graph 307 and the table 309 stored in the RAM 32 is “ “All” is changed to “All” (step S32), and the inspection item to be displayed in the inspection item list 308 stored in the RAM 32 is input with a detailed screen display instruction (double-clicked on the viewer screen 351). Is changed to the test item of the sample test data corresponding to (step S33). In addition, the display items of the graph 307 and the table 309 are changed to the graph display inspection item and the table inspection item of the parameter acquired in step S20 (step S34). Then, the process returns to step S22, and the specimen test detail screen 353 is displayed on the display unit 35 based on the display target date and time, display items, and parameters stored in the RAM 32.

  On the other hand, in step S23, when the anchor display button 310 is not switched ON in the operation unit 34 (step S23; NO) and the return button 314 is pressed (step S35; YES), the detailed screen display process ends. The display on the display unit 35 returns to the viewer screen 351.

  As described above, according to the image display device 3 of the small-scale diagnosis support system in the present embodiment, when the operation unit 34 is instructed to switch to the anchor mode and the reference date and time is specified, the control unit 31 A sample test detail screen 354 on which sample test data relating to samples collected after the reference date and time is displayed is displayed on the display unit 35.

  Therefore, it becomes possible for the doctor or patient to easily grasp the change in the test result after the reference date and time. For example, by specifying the time point when the treatment method is changed as the reference date and time, only the graph 307 and the table 309 of the test results after the time point when the treatment policy is changed can be displayed on the display unit 35. And the patient can easily grasp it. The course of treatment from the time when the treatment policy is changed serves as a judgment material for the doctor to decide whether to review the current treatment policy or continue as it is, and thus helps the patient to perform better treatment.

  In addition, since the specimen test data relating to the specimen collected after the reference date and time is displayed in a graph 307, it is possible for the doctor and the patient to easily grasp changes with time of the patient after the reference date and time.

  In addition, since the sample test data of the test item collected at the reference date and time is displayed on the sample test detail screen 354, the doctor or patient can easily grasp the change in the value of the test item to be noted.

In addition, the description in this Embodiment mentioned above is an example of the suitable small-scale diagnosis system which concerns on this invention, and is not limited to this.
For example, in the present embodiment, the specimen test image image creation process is periodically executed, but may be executed by an input from the operation unit 34. For example, the sample test data stored in the sample test data table T2 is displayed as a graph on the display unit 35, and the graph displayed on the display unit 35 is saved as a sample test image image by an input from the operation unit 34. It may be. In this case, each parameter displayed in a graph is stored in the parameter table T4.

  Further, in step S5 of the specimen test image creation process shown in FIG. 9, it is determined whether there is unprocessed extracted data using the counter variable. However, the specimen test data for which the specimen test image is to be created is determined. It is sufficient if it can be determined whether or not there is another method. For example, EOF (End Of File) data may be attached to the last record of the new specimen test data, and it may be determined whether there is unprocessed extracted data based on this data.

  Further, the unincorporated flag corresponding to the message for which the specimen test image has been created is updated in step S19. However, it is only necessary that the unincorporated flag can be updated when the specimen test image for the message has been created. The present embodiment is not limited to the example.

  In the above description, an example in which a hard disk, a semiconductor nonvolatile memory, or the like is used as a computer-readable medium of the program according to the present invention is disclosed, but the present invention is not limited to this example. As another computer-readable medium, a portable recording medium such as a CD-ROM can be applied. A carrier wave is also applied as a medium for providing program data according to the present invention via a communication line.

  In addition, the detailed configuration and detailed operation of each device constituting the small-scale diagnosis support system can be changed as appropriate without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
