Abstract

Described are techniques for generating and modifying one or more diagrams based on one or more reports, and modifying the report(s) based on modifications to the diagram(s). The diagrams may include labels, graphical features, annotations, measurements, or other characteristics determined from the report. Visible indicia representing the characteristics may be automatically populated in the diagram, or certain characteristics may be displayed based on user input or preselected report content. Portions of the report may be mapped to regions of the diagram such that a user modification to a region of the diagram may result in a modification to a corresponding portion of the report, and a user modification to a portion of the report may result in a modification to a corresponding region of the diagram. Diagrams may include customized tools or operations for interacting with the diagram based on the structures depicted in the diagram.

Claims20

Dependent claims

A system comprising:

one or more non-transitory computer readable storage media storing computer-executable instructions;
and
one or more hardware processors configured to execute the computer-executable instructions to:
access a report stored in one or more memories, the report including structure data indicative of a medical structure and medical data that includes alphanumeric data indicative of one or more values or characteristics associated with the medical structure;
determine, based on the structure data, the medical structure that is associated with the report;
access diagram data stored in the one or more memories, wherein the diagram data associates the medical structure with a diagram;
determine that the diagram data associates the medical structure of the report with the diagram, thereby indicating that the diagram depicts at least a portion of the medical structure of the report;
access mapping data associated with the diagram, wherein the mapping data associates the one or more values or characteristics of the report with one or more regions of the diagram;
determine, based on the mapping data, a region of the diagram that corresponds to a value included in the alphanumeric data;
and
provide a visible indication of the value of the alphanumeric data to the region of the diagram such that the diagram presents the visible indication in association with a portion of the medical structure.

A system comprising:

one or more non-transitory computer readable storage media storing computer-executable instructions;
and
one or more hardware processors configured to execute the computer-executable instructions to:
access a diagram that is stored in association with a report that includes alphanumeric data indicative of one or more values;
receive user input associated with a region of the diagram;
access mapping data associated with the diagram, wherein the mapping data associates the region of the diagram with a value of the one or more values of the report;
based on the mapping data, determine that the value of the report corresponds to the region of the diagram;
and
modify the value of the report based at least partially on the user input.

6 more elements

A system comprising:

one or more non-transitory computer readable storage media storing computer-executable instructions;
and
one or more hardware processors configured to execute the computer-executable instructions to:
access a report including medical data indicative of one or more values or characteristics associated with a medical structure;
access diagram data that associates the medical structure of the report with a diagram;
based on the diagram data, determine that the diagram corresponds to the medical structure associated with the report;
receive user input that one or more of adds, modifies, or selects a particular value or characteristic of the report;
determine a portion of the report associated with the user input;
access mapping data associated with the diagram, wherein the mapping data associates a region of the diagram with the portion of the report;
based on the mapping data, determine the region of the diagram that corresponds to the portion of the report;
and
provide a visible indication of the particular value or characteristic to the region of the diagram.
