  • Patent number: 11929172
    Abstract: There is provided a medical examination support apparatus in which the history of diagnosis can be easily grasped at a glance, and an operation method and an operation program thereof. A screen output control unit of a medical examination support server generates a log display screen and transmits the log display screen to a client terminal. In a collective display region in the log display screen, an APL block and a MOL block are collectively displayed in a time series in a distinguishable manner. The APL block is a display block of an automatic processing log APL which is a history of automatically performing analysis processing on examination data obtained in a medical examination performed on a patient by a diagnosis support algorithm to output a result of the analysis processing as diagnosis support information for supporting diagnosis of a doctor. The MOL block is a display block of a manual operation log MOL which is a history of a manual operation of the doctor with respect to the examination data.

  • Publication number: 20130253954
    Abstract: There is provided a system and method for managing a case database that can enhance the quality of information to be registered. Once a user performs an operation to request registration of a case, it is first searched whether or not a case that can be determined to be similar to the case has already been registered in a case database. A result of the search is then reported, while executable processing options determined based on the result of the search are also reported. If the case that can be determined to be similar has already been registered, the executable processing options include processing of registering as a new case, processing of registering by adding into an existing case, and processing of cancelling registration. If the case that can be determined to be similar has not been registered, the executable processing options include processing of registering as a new case and processing of cancelling registration.
