Abstract: Problem: A display device and an image display system are provided which can easily identify different kinds of windows. Solution: A list X of simplified images M is based on data containing associated information of multiple attributes as metadata. A display is provided to display the list X in a matrix in which the simplified images M are located for respective pieces of associated information of one attribute in a row direction while the simplified images M are located for respective pieces of associated information of another attribute in a column direction. The display has a first sub window SW1 and a second sub window SW2 that are displayed in different display modes on the list X, the first sub window SW1 containing the images M sharing the associated information of one attribute and the associated information of another attribute in the list X of the images M, the second sub window SW2 containing the images M placed in the same folder in the list X of the images M.

Abstract: An image display system capable of readily grasping whether or not there are images which are not displayed on a display unit with no need of moving a screen is provided. The system includes a list preparation unit for preparing a list that simple images which are based on medical data are arranged in a matrix, and a display screen on which the aforementioned list is partially displayed, the display screen on which an indicator indicating presence and/or absence of the simple images which are not displayed on the display screen, and indicating presence and/or absence of the aforementioned simple images on at least any one of the upper side, the lower side, the right side and the left side of a displayed part of the aforementioned list is displayed. The indicator includes a number of simple images which are not displayed on the aforementioned display screen.

Abstract: A display apparatus including: a display controller for displaying a view of simplified images based on medical data having accompanying information of a plurality of attributes as metadata, wherein said view of simplified images being a matrix-like view in which the simplified images of the same patient are arranged by accompanying information of one attribute in a row direction and arranged by accompanying information of another attribute in a column direction; and an input unit in which an operator performs input of changing the attribute in at least one of the row and column directions. The display controller rearranges the simplified images by accompanying information of the attribute that the operator changed using the input unit.

Abstract: An image display system is provided. The image display system includes a data server configured to store image data, a display terminal configured to display an image based on image data obtained from the data server and configured to receive additional information from an operator to be added to the image, and an information sharing unit configured to store specification information and the additional information, the specification information specifying additional image data added on the image with the additional information. The information sharing unit is configured to store additional information and specification information inputted at a plurality of display terminals, and, when the image data obtained from the data server coincides with the additional image data, the display terminal is configured to display the image and the additional information.

Abstract: A display device including a display control unit is provided. The display control unit is configured to display, in a display screen, a list image including a list of medical data that includes a part of a plurality of pieces of medical data of a patient having different time information. The display control unit is further configured to display a period image illustrating a total period from an oldest time to the present in time information of the medical data of the patient such that the total period fits in the display screen, wherein the display control unit is configured to display, in the period image, a partial period from an oldest time to a latest time of the time information of the medical data included on the displayed list of medical data.

Abstract: In order to assuredly prevent illegitimate duplication of a program by a simple technique, license information 304 is created as information in the form of a run-time read module in a data processing apparatus by a creation program that self-destructs after being executed, and a program 300 that is installed without the license information and is incomplete without the license information is executed with the license information 304 read during the execution.

Abstract: A patient information management method having a configuration described below is provided that makes it possible to provide efficiently patient information to an appropriate partner while maintaining the secret thereof. In a storage management device, patient information is encrypted so that it can be decrypted when both patient ID information and a password decided by a patient are used. The encrypted patient information is stored in a storage device. The storage management device issues a use request to the storage device to receive encrypted patient information, and uses patient ID information and a password to decrypt it for use.
