Patent number: 11954850Abstract: A medical information processing system according to an embodiment includes processing circuitry and a display. On the basis of one of the type of at least one abnormality detection algorithm to which a medical image related to an examined subject is to be input and information relevant to an abnormality detected by inputting the medical image to the abnormality detection algorithm, the processing circuitry judges whether or not urgency is present in a disorder related to the abnormality. When it is determined that the urgency is present, the display displays, in an examination list of examination orders, assessment information related to assessing the abnormality and urgency information indicating the urgency so as to be positioned adjacent to any of the examination orders related to the abnormality.Type: GrantFiled: February 11, 2021Date of Patent: April 9, 2024Assignee: CANON MEDICAL SYSTEMS CORPORATIONInventors: Koichi Terai, Hiroki Saito, Kenichi Usui, Yosuke Okubo, Hirobumi Nonaka

Patent number: 10844796Abstract: A gas engine drive system includes: a gas engine including combustion chamber; a turbocharger including a compressor and turbine; a fuel injection system that injects fuel gas into intake air that is supplied from compressor to combustion chamber via an intake passage; a pressure detector detecting a charge air pressure; a temperature detector detecting the intake air's temperature; and controller controlling the fuel injection system. The controller: when required output decreases, determines the charge air pressure's lean limit based on target injection amount corresponding to required output that has decreased; if the charge air pressure is lower than or equal to the lean limit, decreases fuel injection amount to target injection amount; if the charge air pressure is higher than lean limit, brings fuel injection amount to zero. When the charge air pressure becomes lower than or equal to the lean limit, increases fuel injection amount to target injection amount.Type: GrantFiled: November 1, 2016Date of Patent: November 24, 2020Assignee: KAWASAKI JUKOGYO KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventors: Tomoaki Kizuka, Yosuke Nonaka, Hiroyoshi Ishii, Satoru Fukao, Shigeharu Fujihara, Towa Hirayama
