  • Publication number: 20180341750
    Abstract: A medical scan report labeling system is operable to transmit a medical report that includes natural language text to a first client device for display. Identified medical condition term data is received from the first client device in response. An alias mapping pair in a medical label alias database is identified by determining that a medical condition term of the alias mapping pair compares favorably to the identified medical condition term data. A medical code that corresponds to the alias mapping pair and a medical scan that corresponds to the medical report are transmitted to a second client device of an expert user for display, and accuracy data is received from the second client device in response. The medical code is mapped to the first medical scan in the medical scan database when the accuracy data indicates that the medical code compares favorably to the medical scan.

  • Publication number: 20180159823
    Abstract: A NAT server and a NAT method thereof are provided. The NAT server receives a SIP message including private network RTP information from a user equipment. The NAT server modifies the private network RTP information of the SIP message into public network RTP information and creates in the mapping table a mapping record of the private network RTP information and the public network RTP information. The NAT server transmits the SIP message to a SIP server. The NAT server receives another SIP message from the SIP server, and determines that the public network RTP information of the another SIP message corresponds to the private network RTP information according to the mapping record. The NAT server modifies the public network RTP information of the another SIP message into the private network RTP information and transmits the another SIP message to another user equipment of the private network.
