  • Publication number: 20230068560
    Abstract: A medical information processing system of an embodiment includes a processing circuit. The processing circuit acquires medical examination data of a diagnosis subject and reply data of a medical examination by interview for the diagnosis subject. The processing circuit estimates a disease or symptoms of the diagnosis subject by inputting the examination data of the diagnosis subject to a trained model. The trained model is a model trained on the basis of a training data set in which diseases or symptoms that a learning subject suffers from are associated with examination data of the learning subject as correct answer labels. The processing circuit outputs a result of comparison between estimated data based on an estimation result of the disease or symptoms of the diagnosis subject and the reply data via an output unit.

  • Patent number: 11540790
    Abstract: A marker-coordinate detecting unit detects coordinates of a stent marker on a new image when the new image is stored in an image-data storage unit; and then a correction-image creating unit creates a correction image from the new image through, for example, image transformation processing, so as to match up the detected coordinates with reference coordinates that are coordinates of the stent marker already detected by the marker-coordinate detecting unit in a first frame. An image post-processing unit then creates an image for display by performing post-processing on the correction image created by the correction-image creating unit, the post-processing including high-frequency noise reduction filtering-processing, low-frequency component removal filtering-processing, and logarithmic-image creating processing; and then a system control unit performs control of displaying a moving image of an enlarged image of a set region that is set in the image for display, together with an original image.
