Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. However, the scope of the invention is not limited to the illustrated examples.

[Configuration of medical imaging system 100]
First, the configuration of the embodiment of the present invention will be described.
FIG. 1 shows an example of the system configuration of a medical image capturing system 100 according to this embodiment.
1, the medical image capturing system 100 is composed of an inspection device 10, a console 20, a failed image management device (medical failed image management device) 30, a client terminal 40, etc., and each device is connected to be able to transmit and receive data via a communication network N constructed in a medical facility such as a LAN (Local Area Network) or a WAN (Wide Area Network). Note that the medical image capturing system 100 may include a plurality of inspection devices 10, consoles 20, and client terminals 40.

The examination device 10 is a modality such as a CT device, an X-ray device (DR, CR), an MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) device, or an ultrasound diagnostic device, and takes an image of a subject to generate digital data of a medical image and transmit it to the console 20.

The console 20 controls imaging by the examination device 10 based on examination order information (including patient information such as patient ID and patient name, imaging request information such as imaging area and imaging direction) input by user operation or sent from a HIS (Hospital Information System) or RIS (Radiology Information System) (not shown).

The console 20 also assigns a UID (Unique ID) for identifying the image, patient information, examination information (examination UID, examination date and time, imaging area, imaging direction, modality type, etc.) to the medical image received from the examination device 10. The examination UID is identification information for identifying the examination. In this embodiment, examinations performed according to certain examination order information are managed by one examination UID.

The console 20 also accepts input as to whether the received medical image is OK (suitable for diagnosis) or NG (failed). Here, a medical image that has failed to be captured and cannot be used for diagnosis is called a failed image. It is also called an NG image. If multiple failed images occur for a single planned capture (capture of the same patient for the same examination), multiple failed images are generated. A medical image that is suitable for diagnosis is called a diagnostic image. It is also called an OK image.

When a user inputs that the received medical image is NG, the console 20 accepts the user's input of the reason for the failure. Examples of reasons for the failure include artifacts, positioning errors, insufficient dose (in the case of X-ray imaging), body movement, foreign matter contamination, wrong patient, wrong body part, etc. When the reason for the failure is input, the console 20 associates the failed image with the shooting result information of the failed image (e.g., examination UID, RIS code/condition key number, shooting date and time, photographer identification information (photographer name, etc.), a failure flag indicating that the image is a failure, the reason for the failure, shooting conditions at the time of the failure (shooting part, shooting direction, panel used, tube voltage, mAs value (if the inspection device 10 is an X-ray imaging device), etc.), patient information (age, gender, etc.), information including UID, etc.), and transmits the information to the failed image management device 30, and causes the inspection device 10 to perform re-shooting. Here, for example, the console 20 stores a user ID used at login in association with photographer identification information for identifying the photographer, and the photographer identification information in the shooting result information uses, for example, the photographer identification information corresponding to the user ID of the logged-in user who is logged in. Also, the RIS code/condition key number is information indicating the shooting direction, shooting body part, shooting technique, etc. The RIS code is a 16-digit number, and the condition key number is an 18-digit number.

When it is input that the received medical image is OK, the console 20 associates the imaging result information of the diagnostic image (e.g., information including items such as examination UID, RIS code/condition key number, imaging date and time, photographer identification information (photographer name, etc.), a flag indicating that it is OK, imaging conditions (area of imaged, imaging direction, panel used, tube voltage, mAs value, etc.), patient information (age, gender, etc.), and UID) with the medical image (diagnostic image) that has been judged to be OK, and transmits it to the failed image management device 30.

A failed image and a diagnostic image in a certain test for a certain patient can be associated (related) by, for example, the same RIS code/condition key number. In addition, the diagnostic image and the failed image can be associated by writing the UIDs of the diagnostic image and the failed image in the imaging result information of the diagnostic image.

The control unit 31 may automatically determine whether a received medical image is a defective image by analyzing the medical image.

The failed image management device 30 is a device that stores and manages medical images including failed images (failed images and diagnostic images), and is a device that can be logged in by a radiologist or an administrator.
FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing the functional configuration of the failed image management device 30. As shown in FIG.
As shown in FIG. 2, the failed image management device 30 includes a control unit 31, a display unit 32, an operation unit 33, a communication unit 34, a memory unit 35, etc., and each unit is connected by a bus.

The control unit 31 is composed of a CPU (Central Processing Unit), ROM (Read Only Memory), RAM (Random Access Memory), etc., and controls the overall processing operations of each part of the failed image management device 30. Specifically, the CPU reads out a program stored in the storage unit 35, expands it into the RAM, and executes various processes, including the display control process described below, in accordance with the program.

The display unit 32 is composed of a monitor such as an LCD (Liquid Crystal Display), and performs various displays according to the instructions of the display signal input from the control unit 31.

The operation unit 33 is configured with a keyboard equipped with cursor keys, numeric input keys, various function keys, etc., and a pointing device such as a mouse, and outputs instruction signals input by the user operating the keyboard or mouse to the control unit 31. The operation unit 33 may also be equipped with a touch panel on the display screen of the display unit 32, in which case it outputs instruction signals input via the touch panel to the control unit 31.

The communication unit 34 is configured with a network interface, etc., and transmits and receives data to and from an external device connected via the communication network N. For example, the communication unit 34 receives medical images (failed images, diagnostic images) and their imaging result information from the console 20.

The storage unit 35 is configured with a HDD (Hard Disk Drive) or non-volatile semiconductor memory, and stores various data. For example, the storage unit 35 has an image management table 351, an image storage area 352, and a user management table 353. The storage unit 35 also stores various programs that can be executed by the control unit 31. The programs may be stored in the ROM of the control unit 31.

The image management table 351 is a table for managing medical images (failed images, diagnostic images) stored in the image storage area 352, and stores, for example, imaging result information of each medical image stored in the image storage area 352. The control unit 31 can search for medical images stored in the image storage area 352 based on information on each item of the imaging result information stored in the image management table 351.
The image storage area 352 is an area for storing (saving) image data of medical images (failed images, diagnostic images).
The radiography result information in the image management table 351 and the medical images in the image storage area 352 are associated with each other by, for example, a UID.

As shown in Figure 3, the user management table 353 is a table that associates the "user ID,""password,""userauthority," and "photographer identification information" of users who can log in to the failed image management device 30 and stores them as user management information.
The user ID is user identification information for uniquely identifying a user who can log in to the failed image management device 30 .
The password is the password used to log in.
The user authority is information (called user authority information) that indicates the authority (general photographer authority or administrator authority) held by the user.
The photographer identification information is information used in the console 20 for identifying the photographer, such as the name of the cameraman.

The client terminal 40 is a client of the failed image management device 30, through which a user inputs operations to the failed image management device 30 and displays screens instructed to be displayed by the failed image management device 30.
The failed image management device 30 and the client terminal 40 constitute a failed image management system (medical failed image management system).

[Operation of medical imaging system 100]
Next, the operation of the medical image capturing system 100 in this embodiment will be described.
4 is a flowchart showing a display control process executed by the control unit 31 of the failed image management device 30. The display control process is executed by the control unit 31 in cooperation with a program stored in the storage unit 35.

First, the control unit 31 waits for login to be performed, and when login is performed (step S1; YES), it obtains user authority information associated with the user ID of the logged-in user (logged-in user) from the user management table 353 (step S2).

Next, the control unit 31 determines whether or not the logged-in user has authority as a general photographer based on the obtained user authority information (step S3).
If it is determined that the logged-in user has the authority as a general photographer (step S3; YES), the control unit 31 operates in the photographer display mode and controls the display of the display unit 32 or the client terminal 40 (or the client terminal 40 if the user logs in from the client terminal 40) (step S4).

In the photographer display mode, the control unit 31 first extracts only medical images taken by the logged-in user using the image management table 351 so that only medical images taken by the logged-in user are displayed in the initial display, and displays an image list screen 321 on the display unit 32 or the client terminal 40, in which a list of the extracted medical images is displayed in an image list 321a.
For example, the control unit 31 identifies medical images associated with the photographer identification information of the logged-in user (photographer identification information stored in the user management table 353 in association with the user ID of the logged-in user) (i.e., medical images whose photographer identification information in the shooting result information of the medical image stored in the image management table 351 matches the photographer identification information of the logged-in user) as medical images taken by the logged-in user, and identifies medical images associated with other photographer identification information as medical images taken by photographers other than the logged-in user. Then, in the initial display, only the shooting result information of medical images taken by the logged-in user is extracted and displayed in the image list 321a.

Figure 5 is a diagram showing an example of the image list screen 321 displayed in the general photographer display mode. The image list screen 321 is a screen in which a list of some or all of the medical images stored in the image storage area 352 of the storage unit 35 is displayed in the image list 321a. When the shooting result information of one medical image is selected from the image list 321a on the image list screen 321 by the operation unit 33 or the client terminal 40, the control unit 31, as shown in Figure 5, obtains the medical image corresponding to the selected shooting result information (having a matching UID) from the image management table 351 and displays it in the image display field 351c, as well as displaying detailed information about the displayed medical image. Figure 5 shows an example of the initial display of the image list screen 321 when the photographer identification information of the logged-in user is "Yamada Taro". The image list 321a displays a list of medical images (whose photographer identification information (photographer name) is "Yamada Taro") photographed by "Yamada Taro".

By reviewing the images that the radiologist took that he or she failed to capture and the shooting conditions for those images, and the diagnostic images that he or she recaptured and the shooting conditions for those images, the radiologist can learn what mistakes he or she made and how to improve the shooting conditions, which can be used to improve his or her radiography techniques. In the radiologist display mode, only medical images taken by the logged-in user are automatically displayed as the initial display, eliminating the need for the logged-in user to manually narrow down and display only the medical images that he or she took, thereby improving usability.

The image list screen 321 has a condition specification field 321b, and by specifying display conditions (examination date, name of photographer, reason for rejection (reason for NG), etc.) in the condition specification field 321b using the operation unit 33 or the client terminal 40, it is possible to narrow down or change the medical images displayed in the image list 321a.
For example, it is also possible to display medical images taken by other users by specifying a user other than the logged-in user in the condition specification field 321b of the image list screen 321. For example, when the "Photographer Name" field in the condition specification field 321b is clicked by the operation unit 33 or the client terminal 40, the control unit 31 displays a photographer name specification field 321d as shown in Fig. 6, and when a desired photographer name is checked, the control unit 31 searches the image management table 351 for medical images associated with the checked photographer name as photographer identification information, and displays a list of the images in the image list 321a.

Here, a failed image is an image that the photographer has failed to capture, and is information that clearly indicates the quality of the photographer's skills. Therefore, an environment in which anyone can view photographer identification information related to failed images (including photographer identification information in statistical information about each photographer's failed images) is not desirable from the perspective of protecting the photographer's privacy.
Therefore, in the photographer display mode, the control unit 31 controls so that at least the photographer identification information of the photographer other than the logged-in user regarding the failed image is displayed anonymously (in this embodiment, the control unit 31 controls so that the photographer identification information of the failed image and the diagnostic image is displayed anonymously). For example, in the image list screen 321, as shown in FIG. 6, the names of the photographers (photographer identification information) other than the logged-in user in the image list 321a, the condition specification field 321b, the detailed information of the image display field 321c (see the arrow in FIG. 6), the specification field 321d, etc. are converted to names that do not identify the individual, such as Technician A, Technician B, Technician C, etc., and displayed. Similarly, on screens other than the image list screen 321, the names of the photographers other than the logged-in user are converted to names that do not identify the individual, such as Technician A, Technician B, Technician C, etc., and displayed.
Fig. 7 shows an example of a conference screen 322 in which the photographer identification information of photographers other than the logged-in user is displayed in anonymized form. The conference screen 322 is a screen in which thumbnail images of failed images and thumbnail images of diagnostic images obtained by retaking the failed images are arranged in sets one above the other, with the horizontal axis being the time axis of the shooting date and time and the vertical axis being the body part shot. In Fig. 7, as indicated by the arrow, the photographer identification information displayed in the detailed information at the bottom of the image display field 322a is displayed in an anonymous form.
Fig. 8 shows an example of a statistics screen 323 on which the photographer identification information of photographers other than the logged-in user is displayed in an anonymous manner. The statistics screen 323 shown in Fig. 8 is a screen showing the failure rate by photographer. The names of the photographers other than the logged-in user (here, Yamada Taro) on the graph are displayed in an anonymous manner.
In this way, in the general photographer display mode, the photographer identification information related to the failed image cannot be viewed by anyone other than the photographer himself/herself, making it possible to protect the privacy of the photographer of the failed image.

On the other hand, if it is determined in step S3 that the acquired user authority is not that of a general photographer, i.e., that the logged-in user has authority as an administrator (step S3; NO), the control unit 31 operates in the administrator display mode and controls the display of the display unit 32 or the client terminal 40 (or the client terminal 40 if the user logs in from the client terminal 40) (step S5).

In the administrator display mode, the control unit 31 can display medical images taken by photographers other than the logged-in user as the initial display, and also controls the display so that the photographer identification information of medical images, including failed images taken by photographers other than the logged-in user, is displayed as is without being anonymized.

Fig. 9 is a diagram showing an example of an image list screen 321 that is displayed when a user with administrator authority logs in. As shown in Fig. 9, photographer identification information related to medical images, including failed images taken by users other than the logged-in user (e.g., Jiro Suzuki), is also displayed without being anonymized. Similarly, photographer identification information is displayed without being anonymized on screens other than the image list screen 321.
The reason why photographer identification information is not anonymized in the administrator display mode is that the administrator needs to know who took the photos of the failed images in order to understand how many mistakes each photographer has made, what types of mistakes are common, and so on, and to provide guidance to them.

In addition, in the administrator display mode, the control unit 31 causes the display unit 32 or the client terminal 40 to display a user management screen (not shown) in response to a predetermined operation by the operation unit 33 or the client terminal 40. The user management screen is a screen for registering user management information stored in the user management table 353. For example, when a user ID, password, user authority, and photographer identification information are input from the user management screen, the control unit 31 associates the input user ID, password, user authority, and photographer identification information and stores them in the user management table 353.

Here, the control unit 31 can identify the photographer identification information of the login user by assigning (associating) the photographer identification information of one photographer (user) to one user ID and storing it in the user management table 353. Then, the medical image associated with the photographer identification information can be identified as a medical image taken by the login user. However, the photographer identification information may change. For example, when the photographer identification information is registered as a name, the surname may change due to marriage. In addition, when there are multiple consoles 20, for example, when the consoles 20 are from multiple manufacturers, the photographer identification information representing the same photographer may differ for each console 20 (for example, the photographer identification information is registered in kana in console A and in kanji in console B). In such a case, if only one photographer identification information can be assigned to one user ID, there may be a case where the medical image taken by the login user cannot be identified.
Therefore, in the administrator display mode, the control unit 31 displays an additional registration screen (not shown) on the display unit 32 or the client terminal 40 in response to an operation of the operation unit 33 or the client terminal 40, and when photographer identification information to be additionally registered is input for a user ID input from the additional registration screen, the input photographer identification information is added as the photographer identification information corresponding to the input user ID in the user management information, and the user management information in the user management table 353 is updated. This enables the administrator to additionally register photographer identification information corresponding to the user ID, making it possible to prevent a situation in which a medical image captured by the logged-in user cannot be identified.
The user management screen and additional registration screen are displayed only in the administrator display mode under the control of the control unit 31, and are prohibited from displaying in the general photographer display mode. This is because allowing anyone to perform additional registration would increase the number of erroneous registrations.

As described above, when a user logs in, the control unit 31 of the failed image management device 30 controls the display so that photographer identification information for at least failed images taken by photographers other than the logged-in user is anonymized.
Therefore, since the photographer identification information related to the failed image cannot be viewed by anyone other than the photographer himself/herself, it is possible to protect the privacy of the photographer of the failed image.

For example, when a user logs in, the control unit 31 operates in a general photographer display mode or an administrator display mode depending on the user identification information used at the time of login, and when operating in the general photographer display mode, controls so that the photographer identification information for at least failed images taken by photographers other than the logged-in user is displayed in an anonymous manner.
Therefore, in the general photographer display mode, it is possible to protect the privacy of the photographer who took the failed image.

The failed image management device 30 also includes a user management table 353 that stores user identification information of users who can log in and user authority information indicating whether the user has authority as an administrator or as a general photographer in association with each other, and the control unit 31 judges whether the logged-in user has authority as an administrator or as a general photographer based on the user authority information stored in association with the user identification information of the logged-in user in the user management table 353. If the control unit 31 judges that the logged-in user has authority as a general photographer, it operates in the general photographer display mode, and if the control unit 31 judges that the logged-in user has authority as an administrator, it operates in the administrator display mode.
Therefore, in the general photographer display mode used by a photographer who has the authority as a general photographer, it is possible to protect the privacy of the photographer who has taken the failed image.

Furthermore, when operating in the administrator display mode, the control unit 31 controls so that photographer identification information relating to failed images taken by photographers other than the logged-in user is also displayed without being anonymized.
Therefore, the administrator can know who took the failed images, and can grasp how many mistakes each photographer made, what kinds of mistakes were common, and provide guidance.

The control unit 31 also controls the display so that only medical images taken by the logged-in user are displayed in the initial display in the general photographer display mode. Therefore, in the failed image management device 30 where photographers often have opportunities to review and consider failed images they have taken, the logged-in user is no longer required to manually narrow down and display medical images they have taken, thereby improving usability.

The control unit 31 also distinguishes between medical images taken by the logged-in user and medical images taken by persons other than the logged-in user, based on whether or not the photographer identification information stored in the user management table 353 in association with the user identification information of the logged-in user is associated. This makes it possible to easily distinguish between medical images taken by the logged-in user and medical images taken by persons other than the logged-in user.

When operating in the administrator display mode, the control unit 31 also controls the display of an additional registration screen for additionally registering photographer identification information associated with a user ID, making it possible to register multiple photographer identification information for one user, and making it possible to accommodate cases where, for example, the name used as the user's photographer identification information changes, or where the photographer identification information for the same photographer changes for each console. Also, because general photographers are prohibited from making additional registrations, erroneous registrations can be reduced.

Note that the description in the above embodiment is a preferred example of the present invention and is not limited to this.

For example, in the above embodiment, a case has been described in which the functions of the control unit according to the present invention are provided in the failed image management device 30, but the client terminal 40 may have a program for executing the functions of the control unit according to the present invention, and the control unit (CPU) of the client terminal 40 may execute the functions of the present invention on the client terminal 40. Also, the failed image management system may be configured to include a computer that is separate from the failed image management device 30 and the client terminal 40 and that further includes a program for executing the functions of the control unit according to the present invention, and the functions of the present invention may be executed on that computer.

In the above explanation, examples have been disclosed in which a hard disk or a non-volatile semiconductor memory is used as a computer-readable medium for the program according to the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to this example. Portable recording media such as CD-ROMs can be used as other computer-readable media. Furthermore, carrier waves can also be used as a medium for providing data for the program according to the present invention via a communication line.

In addition, the detailed configuration and operation of each device that constitutes the medical imaging system may be modified as appropriate without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
