A system and method for utilizing a spatial three-dimensional display unit with a medical diagnostic imaging system is disclosed. The medical diagnostic imaging system may be a picture archival communication system. The system may include at least one two-dimensional display unit and an additional spatial three-dimensional display unit. Accordingly a user may view two and three-dimensional images of similar anatomical objects. The two and three-dimensional images may be linked, providing the user with a consistent viewing angle. The system may be used to review a surgical path. The display parameters of a first three-dimensional data set may be mapped to a second three-dimensional data set. The surgical path of the first data set and the second data set may be displayed on spatial display units. Accordingly, the anatomical objects along the surgical path may be viewed at different points in time, for example prior to surgery and after surgery.

Certain embodiments of the present invention provide methods and systems for displaying images using a plurality of perspectives within a hanging protocol. Certain embodiments include loading a hanging protocol for display of an image study, selecting a perspective within the hanging protocol for display of the image study, and displaying the image study based on a display configuration within the selected perspective. In certain embodiments, the perspective is selected from a plurality of perspectives, including a default perspective, within the hanging protocol. In certain embodiments, selection of the perspective comprises selection of a perspective based on modality, anatomy, procedure, and/or default view, for example. In certain embodiments, a perspective may be automatically within the hanging protocol for display of the image study. In certain embodiments, a user may be allowed to switch perspectives during display of the image study.
摘要:
Certain embodiments of the present invention provide a method and system for dynamic configuration of PACS workstation displays. Certain embodiments include automatically detecting a number of display(s) in communication with a picture archiving and communication system (PACS) and a display resolution associated with each of the display(s). An application window is created for each of the display(s) such that the application window may be closed, opened and/or resized without affecting other application windows. Configuration of display(s) may be dynamically adjusted based upon a number of active displays and a number of applications executing on the PACS, for example. A display protocol is applied to each application window for display of data in the application window. The display protocol may be a default, user-configured and/or dynamically-configured display protocol, for example.

Certain embodiments of the present invention provide an improved medical imaging and information management system and method with conferencing and control capability. Certain embodiments of the system include an initiator workstation capable of remotely controlling functionality at a slave workstation and a slave workstation including functionality capable of control by the initiator workstation. The initiator workstation is capable of remotely configuring a display protocol of said slave workstation to share diagnostic quality images. In an embodiment, the system includes a picture archiving and communication system (PACS), with first and second PACS workstations as the initiator and slave workstations, for example. In an embodiment, the initiator controls all functionality at the slave. In an embodiment, the initiator controls selected functions at the slave. The initiator workstation may display at least one diagnostic quality image on a display at said slave workstation independent of image quality of said display, for example.
摘要:
A system and method to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of a radiologist. A display protocol for medical imaging equipment may allow a plurality of three-dimensional medical images to be concurrently displayed and navigated. The three-dimensional medical images may be linked so a user can manipulate the viewing angle and pointer in the linked images. The display protocol can be configured to display a three-dimensional image from a current exam and a three-dimensional comparison image. Moreover, a display protocol for medical imaging equipment may allow at least one three-dimensional medical image to be concurrently displayed with at least one two-dimensional medical image. The three-dimensional medical image may be linked with the two-dimensional medical image so a user can manipulate the viewing angle and pointer in the linked images. The display protocol can be configured to display a three-dimensional image with axial, sagital, coronal, or non-standard oblique views.
