  • Patent number: 9977863
    Abstract: An image processing device includes: a reading unit that reads an image, image identification information (image ID), and medium identification information (medium ID) from the removable medium; a transmitting unit that transmits, to a server, the image ID and the medium ID that have been read by the reading unit; a receiving unit that receives, from the server, the patient information that corresponds to the image ID and the medium ID that have been transmitted by the transmitting unit, or information indicating no existing corresponding patient information; and a display control unit that displays, on a display device, the image read by the reading unit and the patient information received by the receiving unit, or the image read by the reading unit.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 7, 2016
    Date of Patent: May 22, 2018
    Assignee: OLYMPUS CORPORATION
    Inventors: Akihiro Ukai, Masanao Hara, Ken Suzuki, Takahiro Narasawa, Katsuhiko Nameta, Yasuhiko Okada, Keiichiro Tawara, Yasuhisa Seki

  • Patent number: 7488128
    Abstract: The invention provides an image recording apparatus comprising a recording unit in which at least two recording heads are disposed such that end portions of respective nozzle columns overlap each other in a recording medium conveying direction or such that the nozzle columns are located adjacent to each other at a predetermined interval, the image recording apparatus executing recording position recording medium width-direction moving processing for a detected deviation (lateral deviation amount) of a recording medium at both-lateral ends of the recording medium, image data distribution processing with a joint of the overlapping as a boundary, image-recording density-varying processing for the joint, and recording position recording medium conveying-direction moving processing in order to perform high quality image jointing processing, and an image recording method of the image recording apparatus.
