Abstract
In an X-ray image capturing device which performs image capturing by receiving image capturing information that includes protocols from an information system, when a protocol which is not associate to a body part is transferred, image capturing of such protocol cannot be performed, or the task of associating to a body part is troublesome and cannot be performed accurately. A configuration is used in which a protocol having unassociated image capturing information and body part is displayed as an undefined protocol, and means to associate the undefined protocol to a body part is called up.
Claims12
X-ray image capturing device comprising:
- a register unit for registering a body part and parameters related to the image capturing the region;
- an order receiving unit for acquiring an image capturing order;
- an associating unit for associating image capturing information included in said image capturing order which indicates image capturing to be performed with the body part registered in said register unit;
- and
- a display unit for displaying undefined image capturing information that could not be associated with a body part by said associating unit.
X-ray image capturing device comprising:
- a register unit for registering a body part and parameters related to the body part;
- an order receiving unit for acquiring an image capturing order;
- an associating unit for associating image capturing information included in said image capturing order which indicates image capturing to be performed with the body part registered in said register unit;
- a display unit which displays undefined image capturing information that could not be associated with a body part by said associating unit;
- and
- a selecting unit for displaying said body parts registered in said registered unit as candidates for said undefined image capturing information, and associating a body part selected by a user from the candidates to said undefined image capturing information,
- wherein X-ray image capturing is performed using the body part associated with said image capturing information by said associating unit and said selecting unit and the parameters related to capturing an image of the region.
A method of image capturing of X-ray image capturing device, comprising:
- a step of registering a body part and image capturing conditions thereof,
- a step of acquiring an image capturing order,
- a step of associating image capturing information included in said image capturing order which indicates image capturing to be performed with the body part registered in said registering step;
- a step of displaying undefined image capturing information that could not be associated with a body part in said associating step;
- and
- a step of displaying said registered body parts as candidates for said undefined image capturing information, and associating a body part selected by a user from the candidates to said undefined image capturing information,
- wherein X-ray image capturing is performed using the body part associated with said image capturing information by said associating step and said selecting step and the parameters related to capturing an image of the region.
