Publication number: 20240087746Abstract: According to one embodiment, a medical diagnostic imaging apparatus includes processing circuitry. The processing circuitry receives a subject's examination information including a case and an examination body part. The processing circuitry acquires a first search result by searching a library that associates an imaging protocol with each case using the subject's case. The processing circuitry acquires a second search result by searching a library that associates a slice condition with each examination body part using the subject's examination body part. The processing circuitry determines an imaging protocol for the subject based on the first search result, and determines a slice condition for the subject based on the second search result. The processing circuitry stores the received examination information and the determined imaging protocol and slice condition in a predetermined library in such a manner as to associate them with each other.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 13, 2023Publication date: March 14, 2024Applicant: Canon Medical Systems CorporationInventor: Junichiro ARAOKA

Publication number: 20240071584Abstract: A medical information system includes a processor on a side of a medical image diagnostic device. The processor acquires supplementary information as structured information associated with image data acquired using the medical image diagnostic device, the supplementary information being new information on a subject to be imaged. The processor notifies at least one management server that manages patient information of the supplementary information via a network in response to the acquisition of the supplementary information, the patient information being information unique to the subject.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 29, 2023Publication date: February 29, 2024Applicant: CANON MEDICAL SYSTEMS CORPORATIONInventors: Shinya OZAWA, Kensuke SHINODA, Junichiro ARAOKA, Tsutomu IGARASHI, Masato SHIBUYA

Publication number: 20220084202Abstract: An information processing apparatus according to an embodiment includes processing circuitry. The processing circuitry is configured to perform an image generating process of generating a plurality of medical images on the basis of a plurality of imaging parameter groups, the plurality of imaging parameter groups being updated by adversarial learning. The processing circuitry is configured to perform a discriminating process of discriminating whether or not each of the plurality of medical images is a target image acquired by a first medical imaging apparatus in the adversarial learning. The processing circuitry is configured to output one of the imaging parameter groups used for generating the medical images in the image generating process when the adversarial learning has converged.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 13, 2021Publication date: March 17, 2022Applicant: CANON MEDICAL SYSTEMS CORPORATIONInventors: Yutaka HOSHIYAMA, Yoshimori KASSAI, Yuto ONO, Junichiro ARAOKA, Kazuya TANOUE, Hidetaka KONTA

Patent number: 8941682Abstract: The retrieval of medical data from a database through easy operations without displaying components for retrieval operations on a display screen is realized. The present invention is a medical image processing apparatus comprising a data memory, a display, a position-designating part, a data-list-display controller, and a keyword-generating part. The data memory stores medical data associated with attributes data including patient identification information. The position-designating part designates a position on the display. The data-list-display controller causes the display to display a data list presenting the attributes data in a list. The keyword-generating part generates a retrieval key based on the attributes data in the data list corresponding to the position designated by the position-designating part. Moreover, the data-list-display controller updates the data list based on the results retrieved by the retrieval key.Type: GrantFiled: October 28, 2011Date of Patent: January 27, 2015Assignees: Kabushiki Kaisha Toshiba, Toshiba Medical Systems CorporationInventor: Junichiro Araoka

Patent number: 8397170Abstract: A medical image display apparatus stores examination information of a plurality of examinations and image data resulting from the plurality of examinations, displays a plurality of selectable icons corresponding to the plurality of examinations along one of a vertical direction and a horizontal direction in a screen, displays one or more selectable thumbnail images along the other one of the vertical direction and the horizontal direction, and displays an original image based on the image data. Each of the one or more selectable thumbnail images is displayed in a smaller size than the original image. An input unit is configured to select a first of the plurality of selectable icons and a first of the one or more selectable thumbnail images associated with the selected icon, so that an original image corresponding to the selected thumbnail image is displayed.Type: GrantFiled: May 23, 2005Date of Patent: March 12, 2013Assignees: Kabushiki Kaisha Toshiba, Toshiba Medical Systems CorporationInventor: Junichiro Araoka
