When the authentication request is issued from the authentication requesting means with the identification information of the interpretation doctor (interpretation doctor ID (identification)) and the password, the authentication means 42 collates with the combination of the interpretation doctor ID and password registered in the server terminal 2 in advance. To do.

  The schedule registration request unit 52 of the client terminal 3 is permitted to connect to the server terminal 2 via the communication device 35 when the interpretation doctor who is permitted to connect by the authentication request unit 51 inputs the schedule via the input device 33. A function to request registration of the schedule of the interpreting doctor.

  The schedule registration request by the image interpretation doctor permitted to connect by the authentication means 42 of the server terminal 2 may be made at another client terminal connected to the server terminal 2 via the network N.

  The schedule registration unit 43 of the server terminal 2 has a function of registering in the second storage device 26 the schedule of the interpretation doctor requested to be registered by the schedule registration request unit 52. The interpretation doctor's schedule can be automatically generated from a schedule management system (Outlook, Notes, etc.) used in medical institutions such as hospitals. When the schedule management system is not used in a hospital, the schedule of the interpretation doctor is registered from the server terminal 2 or the client terminal 3. By the registration of the schedule by the schedule registration means 43, the second storage device 26 stores a schedule table (shown in FIG. 2) relating to a plurality of interpreting doctors.

  The authentication request unit 51 of the client terminal 3 has a function of requesting the server terminal 2 to authenticate a contact person who operates the client terminal 3 to the server terminal 2 via the communication device 35 and the network N.

  The authentication unit 42 of the server terminal 2 has a function of accepting an authentication request from the client terminal 3 via the network N and the communication device 25 and authenticating a contact person who operates the client terminal 3. When the authentication request is issued with the contact ID and password from the authentication request means, the authentication means 42 collates with the combination of the contact ID and password registered in the server terminal 2 in advance.

The server terminal 2 has a function of requesting the display of contact availability information by transmitting an inspection ID.

  The schedule determination means 44 of the server terminal 2 has the interpretation doctor ID of the required interpretation doctor (hereinafter referred to as the interpretation doctor Da) who generated the examination report for the examination ID requested to be displayed by the contact availability information display request means 53. It has the function to acquire. Further, the schedule determination means 44 refers to the interpretation doctor schedule table (shown in FIG. 2) stored in the second storage device 26 based on the interpretation doctor ID of the interpretation doctor Da, and determines the required date and time (for example, the current date and time). A function of determining whether or not there is a schedule of the image interpretation doctor Da corresponding to the date and time (a date and time in the future). Hereinafter, the required date and time will be described as the current date and time.

  For example, assume that the schedule table shown in FIG. 2 is stored in the second storage device 26. In this case, the schedule determination unit 44 determines that the second-stage schedule exists if the current date and time is “14:30” based on the interpretation doctor ID of the interpretation doctor Da. The schedule determination unit 44 determines that there is no corresponding schedule if the current date is “16:30” based on the interpretation doctor ID of the interpretation doctor Da.

  When the schedule determination unit 44 determines that the schedule of the interpretation doctor Da corresponding to the current date / time exists (registered), the contact availability information determination unit 45 of the server terminal 2 is stored in the second storage device 26.

  For example, it is assumed that the second storage device 26 stores a first contact availability reference table shown in FIG. 3A and a second contact availability reference table shown in FIG. In this case, when the schedule determination unit 44 determines that the schedule of the interpretation doctor Da corresponding to the current date / time exists (registered), the contact availability information determination unit 45 sets the task type included in the schedule to “ The information on whether or not to contact is determined depending on whether it is “interpretation” or other (such as “non-working hours”, “meeting”, and “going out / moving”). The contact availability determination unit 45 refers to the second contact availability reference table stored in the second storage device 26 when determining that the task type is “interpretation”. That is, the contact availability information determination unit 45 determines the contact availability information corresponding to the examination type included in the schedule of the interpretation doctor Da corresponding to the current date and time as the availability information of the interpretation doctor Da.

  On the other hand, the contact availability information determination unit 45 refers to the first contact availability reference table stored in the second storage device 26 when the task type is other than “interpretation”. That is, the contact availability information determination unit 45 determines the contact availability information corresponding to the task type included in the schedule of the interpretation doctor Da corresponding to the current date and time as the availability information of the interpretation doctor Da.

  The contact availability information transmitting unit 46 of the server terminal 2 has a function of transmitting the contact availability information of the image interpretation doctor Da determined by the contact availability information determining unit 45 to the client terminal 3 via the communication device 25 and the network N. .

You may search the next time slot | zone which becomes "contact possible". In that case, the contact availability information determination means 45, together with the availability information of the interpreting doctor Da, as a suggestion, the time period of “contact available” to the interpreting doctor Da △△ year ×× month ◇◇ day ○○: ○○-○ ○: Sends ○○ to the client terminal 3.

  The contact availability information display means 54 of the client terminal 3 has a function of causing the display device 34 to display the contact availability information of the image interpretation doctor Da transmitted from the server terminal 2 via the network N and the communication device 25.

  FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating a first example of a display method of information on availability of contact by an interpreting doctor in the remote interpretation system 1 according to the first embodiment. FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating a second example of the display method of the information on whether or not to contact the interpreting doctor in the remote interpretation system 1 according to the first embodiment.

  As shown in FIG. 5, the contact availability information of each of the plurality of interpreting doctors Da, Db, Dc transmitted from the server terminal 2 is displayed on the display device 34 of the client terminal 3 as an examination list. When the server terminal 2 is requested to display the availability information for a plurality of examination IDs, the availability information for a plurality of interpretation doctors Da, Db, Dc corresponding to the examination IDs of the examinations is displayed. In addition, as a suggestion, a time zone of “contact is possible” is displayed to the radiogram interpretation doctors Db and Dc.

  As shown in FIG. 6, the doctor's contact availability information transmitted from the server terminal 2 is displayed in the examination report on the display device 34 of the client terminal 3. “Not contactable” is displayed as contact availability information of the image interpretation doctor Da who created the examination report. Further, as a suggestion, a time zone of “contact possible” is displayed to the radiogram interpretation doctor Da.

  Next, the operation of the remote interpretation system 1 of the first embodiment will be described.

  7 to 9 are flowcharts showing the operation of the remote interpretation system 1 of the first embodiment.

  As shown in FIG. 7, the remote interpretation system 1 registers the first contact availability reference table and the second contact availability reference table shown in FIGS. 3A and 3B, respectively, in the second storage device 26 (step ST11). ).

  Next, as shown in FIG. 8, the remote interpretation system 1 authenticates the interpretation doctor who operates the client terminal 3 (step ST21). In the remote interpretation system 1, when a doctor who is permitted to connect in step ST 21 inputs a schedule via the input device 33, the schedule of the doctor who is permitted to connect is registered in the server terminal 2 via the communication device 35. Is requested (step ST22). The remote interpretation system 1 registers the schedule requested for registration in step ST22 in the second storage device 26 (step ST23). By registering the schedule in step ST23, the second storage device 26 stores a schedule table (shown in FIG. 2) relating to a plurality of interpretation doctors.

  Next, as shown in FIG. 9, the remote interpretation system 1 authenticates the contact person who operates the client terminal 3 (step ST31). When a contact person permitted to connect in step ST31 inputs a desired examination ID via the input device 33, the remote interpretation system 1 transmits the examination ID to the server terminal 2 via the communication device 35, thereby allowing contact information. Is displayed (step ST32).

  The remote interpretation system 1 acquires the interpretation doctor ID of the interpretation doctor Da who generated the examination report for the examination ID requested to be displayed in step ST32, and is stored in the second storage device 26 based on the interpretation doctor ID. With reference to the interpretation doctor schedule table (shown in FIG. 2), the presence / absence of the interpretation doctor Da schedule corresponding to the current date and time is determined (step ST33). If the determination in step ST33 is YES, that is, if it is determined that there is a schedule for the interpretation doctor Da corresponding to the current date and time, the remote interpretation system 1 determines whether or not the task type included in the schedule is “interpretation”. Is determined (step ST34). If YES in step ST34, that is, if it is determined that the task type included in the schedule of the interpretation doctor Da corresponding to the current date and time is “interpretation”, the remote interpretation system 1 stores in the second storage device 26. With reference to the stored second contact availability reference table (illustrated in FIG. 3B), the contact availability information corresponding to the examination type included in the schedule is determined as the contact availability information of the interpretation doctor Da (step ST35). ).

  For example, in step ST35, the remote interpretation system 1 determines whether or not the number of examination type images included in the schedule of the interpretation doctor Da corresponding to the current date and time is relatively large (step ST35a). If the determination in step ST35a is YES, that is, if it is determined that the number of images of the examination type included in the schedule is relatively large, the information on whether or not the interpreting doctor Da can be contacted is set to “restricted communication”, for example, “emergency” "Only communication is possible" is determined (step ST35b). On the other hand, if the determination in step ST35a is NO, that is, if it is determined that the number of images of the examination type included in the schedule is relatively small, the communication availability information of the image interpretation doctor Da is determined as “contact possible” (step ST35c). ).

  On the other hand, if the determination in step ST34 is NO, that is, if it is determined that the task type included in the schedule of the interpretation doctor Da corresponding to the current date and time is not “interpretation”, the remote interpretation system 1 uses the second storage device 26. The contact availability information corresponding to the task type included in the schedule is determined as the contact availability information of the interpretation doctor Da with reference to the first contact availability reference table stored in FIG. ST36).

  For example, if it is determined in step ST36 that the task type included in the schedule of the radiogram doctor Da corresponding to the current date and time is “non-working time” (step ST36a), the remote radiology interpretation system 1 will interpret the radiogram interpreter Da. Is determined as “impossible to contact” (step ST36b). When it is determined that the task type included in the schedule of the interpreting doctor Da corresponding to the current date and time is “conference” (step ST36c), the remote interpretation system 1 sets the contact availability information of the interpreting doctor Da as “emergency”. It is determined that “only communication is possible” (step ST36d). When it is determined that the task type included in the schedule of the interpreting doctor Da corresponding to the current date and time is “going out / moving” (step ST36e), the remote interpretation system 1 sets the contact availability information of the interpreting doctor Da to “ It is determined that “limited communication is possible”, for example, “only phone call is possible” (step ST36f).

  Further, when the determination in step ST33 is NO, that is, when it is determined that there is no schedule for the interpretation doctor Da corresponding to the current date and time, the remote interpretation system 1 sets the notification availability information of the interpretation doctor Da to “contact possible”. Is determined (step ST37).

  Next, the remote interpretation system 1 transmits the communication availability information of the interpretation doctor Da determined in steps ST35, ST36, and ST37 to the client terminal 3 via the communication device 25 and the network N (step ST38). The remote interpretation system 1 receives the contact availability information of the interpretation doctor Da transmitted in step ST38 and displays it on the display device 34 (step ST39).

  The remote interpretation system 1 of the first embodiment registers in advance a first contact availability reference table in which contact availability information is associated with each task type (presence type). Therefore, according to the remote interpretation system 1, when the display request of the contact availability information based on the examination ID is performed, the availability information of the required date and time in the radiological doctor Da corresponding to the examination ID, which is classified by the task type, is displayed. Can do.

  In addition, the remote interpretation system 1 of the first embodiment registers in advance a first contact availability reference table and a second contact availability reference table corresponding to contact availability information for each examination type. Therefore, according to the remote interpretation system 1, when making a display request for the contact availability information based on the examination ID, the availability information on the required date and time at the interpretation doctor Da corresponding to the examination ID, classified according to the task type or examination type, is displayed. Can be displayed.
