Medical Data Processing and Visualization Technique

A computer-implemented method comprising:

• accessing an image deviation score of a patient derived through a comparison of patient image data to standardized image data representative of a population of individuals;
• accessing a non-image deviation score of a patient derived through a comparison of patient non-image data to standardized non-image data representative of the population of individuals;
• processing the image deviation score and the non-image deviation score to generate a visual output indicative of both a difference between the patient image data and the standardized image data, and a difference between the patient non-image data and the standardized non-image data;
• and
• displaying the visual output to facilitate diagnosis of a medical condition of the patient.

A computer-implemented method comprising:

• accessing an image deviation score of a patient calculated from a comparison of patient image data from at least two different imaging modalities to standardized image data generated from image data pertaining to a population of individuals;
• processing the image deviation score to generate a visual output including a graphical representation indicative of a difference between the patient image data and the standardized image data;
• and
• displaying the visual output.

A computer-implemented method comprising:

• accessing a plurality of non-image deviation scores of a patient calculated from a comparison of longitudinal patient non-image data with standardized non-image data generated from non-image data pertaining to a population of individuals;
• processing the plurality of non-image deviation scores to generate a visual output including a graphical representation indicative of a difference between at least a subset of the longitudinal patient non-image data and the standardized non-image data;
• and
• displaying the visual output.

A manufacture comprising:

• a computer-readable medium having executable instructions stored thereon, the executable instructions comprising:
• instructions adapted to access an image deviation score of a patient derived through a comparison of patient image data to reference image data representative of a population of individuals;
• instructions adapted to access a non-image deviation score of a patient derived through a comparison of patient non-image data to reference non-image data representative of the population of individuals;
• instructions adapted to generate, based at least in part on the image and non-image deviation scores, a visual output indicative of a difference between the patient image data and the reference image data, and of a difference between the patient non-image data and the reference non-image data;
• and
• instructions adapted to display the visual output.
