Abstract:
A control method includes: receiving, from a case search system, a plurality of data including a plurality of images corresponding to a plurality of similar medical images having a certain similarity with a target medical image to be interpreted; displaying on a display a display screen including a first display area that displays thumbnails of the plurality of similar medical images; sensing one similar medical image selected from among the plurality of similar medical images displayed as thumbnails in the first display area; if the one selected similar medical image is a diffuse lesion, displaying the other plurality of medical images in a second display area included on the display screen; and if the one selected similar medical image is a localized lesion, successively displaying, in the second display area and in a first direction, the plurality of medical images including the localized lesion.
Abstract:
A method includes displaying, on a display of an information terminal, thumbnail images of similar cases received from a case search system and displaying, in a disease name list display area, a disease name list formed from a list of disease names of the similar cases and the number of cases. If a plurality of regions of interest are set by a user when a search is conducted, the disease name list enters a mode in which the name of a concomitant disease is displayable therein.
Abstract:
If a lesion included in a specification target image is a texture lesion, a probability image calculation unit calculates a probability value indicating a probability that each of a plurality of pixels of the specification target image is included in a lesion area. An output unit calculates, as a candidate area, an area including pixels whose probability values are equal to or larger than a first threshold in a probability image obtained from the probability image calculation unit and, as a modification area, an area including pixels whose probability values are within a certain probability range including the first threshold. An input unit detects an input from a user on a pixel in the modification area. A lesion area specification unit specifies a lesion area on the basis of the probability image, the candidate area, the modification area, and user operation information.
Abstract:
A user input obtainer receives an image movement instruction including identification information specifying a position shift or an image capture time shift to be performed and also including a displacement amount. When the identification information specifies the position shift, a slice position selector determines a tomographic image at a destination of the position shift based on the displacement amount from a set of tomographic images captured at the same time. On the other hand, when the identification information specifies the image capture time shift, the image capture time selector determines a tomographic image at a destination of the shift based on the displacement amount from sets of tomographic images that are identical to each other in terms of a patient, an examination portion, and a modality. A displaying image obtainer reads out the determined tomographic image from an image storage device and gives it to a display information generator.
Abstract:
A method for forming an electrical connection structure part according to the present invention includes a step of covering, with an alloy body, a connection part between a first conductor part and a second conductor part, so as to form the electrical connection structure part. The first conductor part contains aluminum. The second conductor part has a surface covered with an ingredient containing nickel. The alloy body contains tin, silver, and nickel. The method further includes steps of; connecting the first conductor part and the second conductor part to each other to form the connection part; melting the alloy body; and dipping at least the connection part into the molten alloy body.
