摘要:
A method includes obtaining image data for a patient. The image data corresponds to acquisition data from an imaging acquisition from a set of planned image acquisitions in an examination plan for the patient. The method further includes analyzing the image data with a processor based on an imaging practice guideline and producing electronically formatted data indicative of the analysis. The processor generates a signal indicative of a recommendation of a change to the examination plan based on the data indicative of the analysis.

An interactive image analysis system includes an image visualization subsystem (1) for visualizing an image (8). An indicated position determiner (2) is arranged for determining an indicated position of a pointing device with respect to the image(8). A result determiner (3) is arranged for determining a result of a local image processing of the image (8) at the indicated position. A display subsystem (4) displays either at least part of the result of the local image processing (406) or a visible mark (407), based on the image processing result. The result of the local image processing is indicative of the presence or absence of an object (403) at or near the indicated position (404, 405), and the display subsystem (4) is arranged for displaying the visible mark (407) in the absence of such an object (403) at or near the indicated position (405).

A system (100) for displaying a multi-dimensional image and an annotation located therein, the system comprising receiving means (110) for receiving: the multi-dimensional image, the annotation, and representation data associated with the annotation, the representation data being indicative of a preferred representation of the multi-dimensional image and the annotation located therein; display means (130) for displaying an initial representation (300) of the multi-dimensional image and the annotation located therein; input means (120) for enabling a user to provide a visualization request when the initial representation shows at least a first part (310) of the annotation; and the display means (130) being arranged for, after receiving the visualization request, displaying the preferred representation (400) of the multi-dimensional image and the annotation located therein in accordance with the representation data, the preferred representation showing at least a second part (410) of the annotation, the second part being different from the first part.
摘要:
A method includes obtaining electronically formatted information about previously performed imaging procedures, classifying the information into groups of protocols based on initially selected protocols for the previously performed imaging procedures and generating data indicative thereof, identifying deviations between the classified information and the corresponding initially selected protocols for the previously performed imaging procedures, and generating a signal indicative of the deviations. A method includes recommending at least one of a plurality of protocols for an imaging procedure based on at least one of a score, a probability, or a pre-determined rule, which is based on extracted medical concepts from patient information and extracted medical concepts from previously imaged patient information, and generating a signal indicative of the recommendation.

摘要:
Provided herein is a system and method for performing a magnetic resonance imaging scan using a MR scanner. The method can comprise receiving via a user interface a MR imaging protocol categorizable into a MR scan type of a predefined set of MR scan types. Further, the method can comprise querying a database by providing to the database scan information permitting the database to identify the MR scan type of the MR imaging protocol. The method can further comprise receiving from the database statistical information on the MR scan type which can include statistics on modifications of individual scan parameters of the MR scan type, and providing the statistical information to the user interface. Modifications of the MR imaging protocol can be received from the user interface, resulting in a modified MR imaging protocol, according to which the MR imaging scan can be performed.
摘要:
The invention relates to an apparatus for processing images by means of a series of user interactions. When processing an image, the user follows a series of interactions. Preferably, this is standardized to ensure reproducibility and accuracy. However, the series of interactions required from the user may be dependent on the needs of the user, the image being processed or even on the preferences of the user. The invention provides an apparatus which can deal with complex image processing requirements, providing both a standardized series of steps, or trail, in the image visualization process, and allowing the user to deviate from this standard trail if required. This accelerates and simplifies the interaction necessary when the user performs a known task on a different image. It also provides valuable assistance when the user performs an unfamiliar task, thereby avoiding mistakes, such as incorrect radiation levels during image acquisition, which can have serious consequences in a medical imaging environment.
