Abstract

Claims (31)

1. A document creation apparatus comprising:

a memory that stores a plurality of creation methods comprising a plurality of templates and a plurality of trained models corresponding to different natural language processing schemes; and

at least one processor configured to:

perform image analysis on a medical image to acquire an analysis result including one or more findings;

determine a number of the findings included in the analysis result so as to determine a creation method of a document to be created, wherein the number of the findings is associated with templates or natural language processing schemes;

in response to the number of the findings being less than a predetermined threshold, determine that the creation method of the document to be created being one template corresponding to the number of findings among the plurality of templates, and create a finding remark by inserting the findings into the one template;

in response to the number of findings being equal to or greater than the predetermined threshold, determine that the creation method of the document to be created being one natural language processing scheme corresponding to the number of findings among the plurality of natural language processing schemes, and create the finding remark by inputting the findings into the trained model among the plurality of trained models corresponding to the one natural language processing scheme; and

create the document by using the created finding remark including a graphical display of the analysis result.

2. The document creation apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is configured to determine the creation method with reference to a table in which the number of the findings is associated with the creation method.

3. The document creation apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is configured to create a plurality of documents, and

the plurality of documents are different in at least one of the finding or the creation method used in creation of the documents.

4. The document creation apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein the at least one processor is configured to display the plurality of documents in a selectable manner.

5. The document creation apparatus according to claim 4 , wherein the at least one processor is configured to display at least one of the creation method of each of the plurality of documents in association with the document.

6. The document creation apparatus according to claim 4 , wherein the at least one processor is configured to:

receive a correction start instruction for a document designated from among the plurality of documents that are displayed; and

display, in response to the correction start instruction, another document that is different from the designated document in the creation method, instead of the designated document.

7. The document creation apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the document is a finding remark including the analysis result.

8. A document creation method comprising:

storing a plurality of creation methods comprising a plurality of templates and a plurality of trained models corresponding to different natural language processing schemes in a memory;

performing image analysis on a medical image to acquire an analysis result including one or more findings;

determining a number of the findings included in the analysis result so as to determine a creation method of a document to be created, wherein the number of the findings is associated with templates or natural language processing schemes;

in response to the number of the findings being less than a predetermined threshold, determining that the creation method of the document to be created being one template corresponding to the number of the findings among the plurality of templates, and creating a finding remark by inserting the findings into the one template;

in response to the number of the findings being equal to or greater than the predetermined threshold, determining that the creation method of the document to be created being one natural language processing scheme, and creating the finding remark by inputting the findings into the trained model among the plurality of trained models corresponding to the one natural language processing scheme; and

creating the document by using the created finding remark including a graphical display of the analysis result.

9. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium that stores a document creation program for causing a computer to:

store a plurality of creation methods comprising a plurality of templates and a plurality of trained models corresponding to different natural language processing schemes in a memory;

perform image analysis on a medical image to acquire an analysis result including one or more findings;

determine a number of the findings included in the analysis result so as to determine a creation method of a document to be created, wherein the number of the findings is associated with templates or natural language processing schemes;

in response to the number of the findings being less than a predetermined threshold, determine that the creation method of the document to be created being one template corresponding to the number of findings among the plurality of templates, and create a finding remark by inserting the findings into the one template;

in response to the number of the findings being equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold, determine that the creation method of the document to be created being one natural language processing scheme corresponding to the number of findings among the plurality of natural language processing schemes, and create the finding remark by inputting the findings into the trained model among the plurality of trained models corresponding to the one natural language processing scheme; and

create the document by using the created finding remark including a graphical display of the analysis result.
