Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for searching for and scheduling healthcare provider visit appointments via a user interface. A user may access a healthcare visit agent via the internet, and instruct the agent, via a user interface, to conduct a search among one or more healthcare provider systems for available visit appointments. In certain embodiments the agent generates an array of available appointments based on search criteria entered by a user via the user interface, and then populates the user interface with the array. A user may then select one or more healthcare provider appointments from the array, and instruct a scheduler to reserve the appointment time for the user at the healthcare provider. In certain embodiments the user may search for available appointments based on visit basis criteria, location criteria, calendar criteria, insurance criteria, patient satisfaction criteria and patient retention criteria.

Abstract: Certain embodiments of the present invention provide systems and methods for correlating an acquired image with an historical image. Certain embodiments include registering an acquired image and at least one historical image according to a coordinate system, applying a metric to the acquired image and each of the historical image(s), and identifying a correlation between the acquired image and one of the historical image(s) based on the metric. Certain embodiments further include storing the correlation between the acquired image and an historical image for automatic linking of the acquired image and the historical image upon display. In certain embodiments, the acquired image and the historical image may be displayed based on the correlation. In certain embodiments, the acquired image and the historical image may be automatically linked based on the correlation. In certain embodiments, the metric analyzes the acquired image and at least one historical image based on anatomy.

Abstract: Certain embodiments of the present invention provide a system and method for automatic image post processing in a healthcare environment. In an embodiment, an automatic post processing image generation system includes at least one user interface, which is adapted to display at least one image on an image viewer and perform image post processing using at least one image post processing application. The system also includes at least one storage server capable of storing user data, wherein the user data includes at least one image and/or at least one post processing parameter. In addition, the system includes a post processing engine for automatically generating and displaying a current post processed image based on at least one image registration technique to correlate the at least one post processing parameter of a related previous post processed image with a current image.
