Abstract

A medical information processing system according to an embodiment includes processing circuitry and a display. On the basis of one of the type of at least one abnormality detection algorithm to which a medical image related to an examined subject is to be input and information relevant to an abnormality detected by inputting the medical image to the abnormality detection algorithm, the processing circuitry judges whether or not urgency is present in a disorder related to the abnormality. When it is determined that the urgency is present, the display displays, in an examination list of examination orders, assessment information related to assessing the abnormality and urgency information indicating the urgency so as to be positioned adjacent to any of the examination orders related to the abnormality.

Claims (22)

1. A medical information processing system, comprising:

processing circuitry configured to

select an abnormality detection algorithm to which a medical image related to an examined subject is to be input,

detect information relevant to an abnormality by inputting the medical image to the selected abnormality detection algorithm,

determine whether or not urgency is present in a disorder related to the abnormality based on the detected information,

cause a display, when it is determined that the urgency is present, to display, in an examination list presenting a list of examination orders, assessment information related to assessing the abnormality, and urgency information indicating the urgency, so as to be positioned adjacent to any of the examination orders related to the abnormality, wherein the displayed assessment information includes a percentage of correct outputs related to a disorder; an index related to a reliability of the detected abnormality; and an index related to a priority of treatment on the abnormality,

wherein the processing circuitry is further configured to select the abnormality detection algorithm to which the medical image is to be input, by analyzing the medical image related to the examined subject, and

the displayed assessment information includes a thumbnail image of the medical image including the abnormality, and the display displays an enlarged image obtained by enlarging the thumbnail image, in response to a cursor being moved to an inside of a display region of the thumbnail image.

2. The medical information processing system according to claim 1 , wherein the processing circuitry is further configured to determine whether or not the urgency is present, by further using an examination purpose in the examination order for the examined subject related to the medical image.

3. The medical information processing system according to claim 1 , wherein

the examination list has an urgency cancellation region related to cancelling the display of the assessment information and the urgency information, and

in response to an operation for the cancellation performed in the urgency cancellation region, the display cancels the display of the assessment information and the urgency information.

4. The medical information processing system according to claim 1 , wherein

when it is determined that the urgency is present, the processing circuitry is further configured to generate an assessment layout in which it is possible to assess the abnormality and which is related to displaying the medical image including the abnormality, and

in response to a prescribed operation performed in a display region of the assessment information, the display displays, in the assessment layout, at least one medical image related to the abnormality.

5. The medical information processing system according to claim 1 , wherein the processing circuitry is further configured to detect the abnormality from the medical image, by inputting the medical image to the selected abnormality detection algorithm.

6. The medical information processing system of claim 1 , wherein the processing circuitry is further configured to cause the display to stop displaying the urgency information in response to a user selecting the displayed urgency information.

7. A medical information processing method, comprising:

determining, based on an abnormality detection algorithm to which a medical image related to an examined subject is to be input and information relevant to an abnormality detected by inputting the medical image to the abnormality detection algorithm, whether or not urgency is present in a disorder related to the abnormality; and

causing, when it is determined that the urgency is present, a display to display, in an examination list presenting a list of examination orders, assessment information related to assessing the abnormality, and urgency information indicating the urgency, so as to be positioned adjacent to any of the examination orders related to the abnormality, wherein the displayed assessment information includes a percentage of correct outputs related to a disorder; an index related to a reliability of the detected abnormality; and an index related to a priority of treatment on the abnormality,

wherein the method further includes selecting the abnormality detection algorithm to which the medical image is to be input, by analyzing the medical image related to the examined subject, and

the displayed assessment information includes a thumbnail image of the medical image including the abnormality, and the display displays an enlarged image obtained by enlarging the thumbnail image, in response to a cursor being moved to an inside of a display region of the thumbnail image.
