  • Publication number: 20130257860
    Abstract: A medical image processing system according to an embodiment includes a display unit, a generating unit, and a controlling unit. The display unit displays a medical image. The generating unit generates a display image used for stereoscopically displaying either text data or image data representing content of an item contained in either additional information or examination information of the medical image. The controlling unit causes the display image to be displayed on the display unit.

  • Publication number: 20130249702
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, a display unit displays a screen of a medical application. An acquisition unit acquires a plurality of values used in the medical application and belonging respectively to a plurality of monitoring items set in advance. A determination unit determines whether the acquired values satisfy a matching determination rule for relevance of presence or absence of a change in a value of a reference item among a plurality of monitoring items in the medical application and presence or absence of a change in a value of the other item. An alerting unit controls the display unit to display an alert when it is determined by the determination unit that the acquired values do not satisfy the matching determination rule.

  • Publication number: 20130238361
    Abstract: A medical information managing system includes a display instructing unit and an identity determining unit. The display instructing unit generates data of a screen that shows medical data concerning patient information and instructs a display device to display the screen if the medical data concerning the patient information is acquired from a storing device and if a medical application for displaying the acquired medical data is executed. The identity determining unit determines, if a plurality of the medical applications are executed, an identity of a plurality of pieces of patient information corresponding to the respective medical applications.

  • Patent number: 8184878
    Abstract: Specific information for specifying a specific study or series for which an object, which is obtained by adding at least one information of a scan condition, a scan range, and a key image position as a basis of a diagnosis in an image, is to be generated is specified. It is determined whether or not an image for references is present in the specific study or series on the basis of additional information of at least one image related to the specific study or series. When it is determined that the image for references is present, an object about the specific study or series is generated afterwards, for example, in the unit of series by using the image for references and at least one information of a scan condition, a scan range, and a key image position of the additional information.

  • Patent number: 8135489
    Abstract: The presence or absence of putting round of a yarn is detected according to whether carriers are positioned on a near side or a far side and according to the relationship of connection between loops, and the result is displayed on a monitor. On the monitor, for example, the degree of the deformation of the yarn is changed according to the presence or absence of putting round when the yarn is touched, or a color is changed according to the presence or absence of putting round. The presence or absence of putting round of the yarn can be detected and then displayed to a user.

  • Publication number: 20120041949
    Abstract: The report generation support system according to the embodiment comprises an input history recording part, operation history recording part, selection part, extraction part, and a display controller. The input history recording part records findings input at the time of generating a medical report and, by linking with an input start time and/or finish time of the findings. The operation history recording part records, as an operation history, the type of operation conducted on an image at the time of generating a report and the time when the operation was conducted by linking with the operated image. The selection part selects at least a part of findings in a report. The extraction part extracts a focus image in the selected findings, based on an input start time and/or finish time of the findings corresponding to the selected location, and the contents of the operation history of the corresponding time.

  • Patent number: 7203566
    Abstract: A gore as a portion of a continuous elongated knitted fabric in a wale direction like a flared skirt is used. A knitted fabric formed by connecting a plurality of the gores in a course direction is designed. At the time of designing a pattern spread over a plurality of gores, the pattern is designed on the outer shape image as a composite image of the gores, and the design is divided into gores. At the time of assigning the pattern to the gores, it is checked whether any narrowing course is present in the pattern. If any narrowing course is present, on the upper side of the narrowing course, the left and right borders of the pattern are shifted toward the center of the knitted fabric, by the amount corresponding to the number of narrowing stitches from the center of the knitted fabric or the like.
