Description

Data control method and apparatus between different medical diagnostic devices

The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for controlling data between different medical diagnostic equipment, and in particular to storing and making data usable between different medical diagnostic equipment, regardless of medical diagnostic equipment of various manufacturers and equipment of different models of the same company. It relates to a data control method and apparatus that can be managed.

Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) is a system that stores, processes, and transmits digital medical image images in accordance with the international standard called DICOM (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine). Medical image images acquired using digital medical imaging equipment such as CT and MRI are stored in DICOM format and reading results and medical records can be added. In addition, it is possible to transmit to the terminal inside and outside the hospital through the network. This breaks down the physical and temporal barriers associated with traditional film-based image retrieval, distribution, and display.

As shown in FIG. 1, the conventional PACS system includes various imaging equipment such as computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and ultrasound (US) (IM1 (21; 21 '), IM2 (22; 22). Non-image data, such as images taken from IM3 (23; 23 ') and scanned documents, are stored in the storage database server 10 via respective workstations or gateways 20, 20', and Alternatively, when an image or non-image data inquiry signal is input from the inquiry personal computer (PC) 31, 32, 33 used by a medical person, a personal computer for inquiry may be used. 31, 32, 33).

On the other hand, the nuclear medicine department of the hospital has a variety of nuclear medical equipment (PET-CT, SPECT, SPECT-CT, Thalium SPECT, etc.) of different manufacturers, but the workstation that controls the nuclear medical equipment is local ( Local) Because the storage space is limited, separate images are stored after moving to a removable disk for a certain period of time. As a result, when researching and diagnosing, it is cumbersome to restore original raw data from a separate storage device. In addition, the current digital medical image data is stored and retrieved through a manual work process, which needs to be automated, and if the data can be stored and retrieved through a network without any manual work, the efficiency can be increased.

Thus, such a conventional PACS technology reveals the following disadvantages when described for example. When transmitting data from video equipment to storage server, only DICOM standard data is received, and raw data cannot be received from all GE, Siemens, and Phlips PET devices. It is slow because it downloads and transfers the video from the PC to the viewer. In terms of the image display function, the DICOM standard format can display an image since the image format is open. It provides the function of storing, inquiring, transmitting, and displaying DICOM data on the network, but does not provide the function of storing, inquiring, transmitting, and backing raw raw data.

As a result, there is a problem that the convenience is inferior depending on memory and recording in finding image data such as PET-CT of the patient. In addition, data from different devices such as GE, Siemens, and Philips cannot be stored in one place, and there is less storage space to back up to a storage device such as a portable storage device such as a DVD or an external hard drive. There is a problem that the usefulness is poor. In addition, when the SPECT data of the patient and the original raw data (raw data) also need to be found together, there is a problem that efficiency is low, such as a lot of time outside the treatment. In addition, there is a disadvantage that is far from the cost saving, such as having to prepare a backup DVD and the like and a storage cabinet for storing them. In addition, there is a problem in terms of stability of data when a backup DVD or an external hard storage device is lost or not recognized. In addition, the amount of historical data and future data continues to increase, which causes problems in scalability in expanding data storage devices.

The problem to be solved by the present invention is to solve the above problems or disadvantages of the prior art, the raw data (raw data) that does not comply with the international standard of DICOM (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine) It is an object of the present invention to provide a data control method and apparatus between different medical diagnostic equipment including a data controller to receive and store the data.
