Abstract

There is provided an image display device including a display control unit having a display combining unit that displays one or a plurality of pathological index cursors based on information relating to a pathological slide image.

Claims (52)

1. An image display device, comprising:

one or more processors configured to:

process information related to a pathological slide image;

generate one or more pathological index cursors based on the processed information;

control the image display device to display the one or more pathological index cursors that are generated based on information related to the pathological slide image being processed; and

blink or vary in color, a pathological index cursor of the one or more pathological index cursors based on classification of cancer stages, wherein the pathological index cursor is rotatable or movable.

2. The image display device according to claim 1 , wherein the one or more processors are configured to change a size of a pathological index cursor based on a magnification of the pathological slide image.

3. The image display device according to claim 1 , wherein the one or more processors are configured to display the pathological slide image and a cancer index list to select the pathological index cursor.

4. The image display device according to claim 3 , wherein the cancer index list is one or two or more types of data selected from cancer invasion distance data, cancer invasion area data, cancer invasion depth data, cancer staining data, nucleo-cytoplasmic ratio data, etiological microbe number data, or cancer stage classification data.

5. The image display device according to claim 1 , wherein the one or more processors are configured to further process data that is related to the pathological slide image, cancer case data, or cancer index list data transmitted from an information provision device,

wherein the information provision device includes central processing unit that is configured to acquire cancer index list data based on the related to the pathological slide image, and

the image display device is configured to display the pathological slide image and the cancer index list data.

6. The image display device according to claim 5 , wherein the central processing unit of the information provision device is further configured to:

hold data related to the pathological slide image, the cancer case data, and the cancer index list data corresponding to the information related to the pathological slide image, and

acquire the data related to the pathological slide image, the cancer case data, and the cancer index list data corresponding to the pathological slide image from the information holding unit based on the information related to the pathological slide image, and transmit the acquired data to the one or more processors of the image display device.

7. An image display system, comprising:

an image display device that comprises one or more processors configured to:

process information related to a pathological slide image;

generate one or more pathological index cursors based on the processed information; and

control the image display device to display the one or more pathological index cursors that are generated based on the information related to the pathological slide image being processed; and

blink or vary in color, a pathological index cursor of the one or more pathological index cursors based on classification of cancer stages, wherein the pathological index cursor is rotatable or movable.

8. The image display system according to claim 7 , further comprising an information provision device that has a central processing unit that is configured to acquire cancer case data and cancer index list data corresponding to the cancer case data based on the information related to the pathological slide image.

9. A microscope system, comprising:

an image display system including an image display device that includes one or more processors configured to:

process information related to pathological slide image;

generate one or more pathological index cursors based on the processed information; and

control the image display device to display the one or more pathological index cursors that are generated based on the information related to the pathological slide image being processed; and

blink or vary in color, a pathological index cursor of the one or more pathological index cursors based on classification of cancer stages, wherein the pathological index cursor is rotatable or movable.

10. The microscope system according to claim 9 , wherein the image display system further includes an information provision device that has a central processing data response unit that is configured to acquire cancer case data and cancer index list data corresponding to the cancer case data based on the information related to the pathological slide image, and transmit the acquired data to the image display device.

11. An image processing method, comprising:

processing information related to a pathological slide image;

generating one or more pathological index cursors based on the processed information; and

displaying the one or more pathological index cursors that are generated based on the processing of the information related to the pathological slide image; and

blinking or varying in color, a pathological index cursor of the one or more pathological index cursors based on classification of cancer stages, wherein the pathological index cursor is rotatable or movable.

12. The image processing method according to claim 11 , further comprising:

acquiring cancer case data and cancer index list data corresponding to the cancer case data based on the information related to the pathological slide image; and

displaying the pathological slide image and the cancer index list data for selecting the one or more pathological index cursors based on the cancer case data and the cancer index list data corresponding to the cancer case data.

13. The image processing method according to claim 12 , wherein the one or more pathological index cursors selected from the cancer index list are displayed.

14. The image processing method according to claim 12 , wherein the cancer case data corresponding to the information related to the pathological slide image and the cancer index list data corresponding to the cancer case data is acquired based on the information related to the pathological slide image.

15. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having stored thereon, a set of computer-executable instructions for causing an image display device to execute operations, comprising:

acquiring and transmitting cancer case data corresponding to information related to a pathological slide image and cancer index list data corresponding to the cancer case data based on the information;

processing the information related to the pathological slide image;

generating one or more pathological index cursors based on the processed information; and

displaying a cancer index list for selecting the one or more pathological index cursors based on the cancer index list data; and

blinking or varying in color, a pathological index cursor of the one or more pathological index cursors based on classification of cancer stages, wherein the pathological index cursor is rotatable or movable.

16. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having stored thereon, a set of computer-executable instructions for causing an image display device to execute operations, comprising:

holding information related to a pathological slide image, cancer case data corresponding to the data relating to the pathological slide image and cancer index list data corresponding to the cancer case data;

acquiring and transmitting cancer case data corresponding to information related to the pathological slide image and cancer index list data corresponding to the cancer case data based on the information;

processing the information related to the pathological slide image;

generating one or more pathological index cursors based on the processed information; and

displaying a cancer index list for selecting the one or more pathological index cursors based on the cancer index list data, and also displaying the one or more pathological index cursors selected from the cancer index list; and

blinking or varying in color, a pathological index cursor of the one or more pathological index cursors based on classification of cancer stages, wherein the pathological index cursor is rotatable or movable.
