Abstract
The invention provides, in some aspects, a system for implementing a rule derived basis to display image sets. In various embodiments of the invention, the selection of the images to be displayed, the layout of the images, as well as the rendering parameters and styles can be determined using a rule derived basis. The rules are based on meta data of the examination as well as image content that is being analyzed by neuronal networks. In an embodiment of the present invention, the user is presented with images displayed based on their preferences without having to first manually adjust parameters.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- (a) selecting a primary Study of a patient selected from a plurality of studies;
- (b) selecting as a ParameterA an anatomical characteristic in the primary study;
- (c) executing on a server digital data processor a render server program which applies one or more Study Selection Rules to
- (i) generate a list of a plurality of secondary studies based on ParameterA;
- (ii) generate from the list of the plurality of secondary studies one or more ImageContentBased parameters using Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN);
- (iii) select from the list of the plurality of secondary studies a final list based on the one or more ImageContentBased parameters;
- (d) executing on the server digital data processor the render server program which applies one or more Protocol Selection Rules to select a Display Protocol, where the one or more Protocol Selection Rules are based on two or more parameters selected from the group consisting of one or more DICOM parameters from the primary Study, one or more Abstract Tags from the primary Study, one or more DICOM parameters from the plurality of secondary studies, one or more Abstract Tags from the plurality of secondary studies and one or more ImageContentBased parameters;
- and
- (e) displaying the primary study and one or more of the plurality of secondary studies selected from the list based on the Display Protocol selected in step (d).
