Abstract
A method and system for validating a parameter in a medical study are disclosed. The method includes receiving the medical study from a source. A processor determines a first parameter of the medical study to be validated. An imaging protocol is received from a configuration file in an imaging unit. The imaging protocol includes a second parameter corresponding to the first parameter in the medical study. The processor determines if there is a mismatch of the first parameter in the medical study and the second parameter in the imaging protocol. If there is a mismatch, the processor corrects the first parameter in the medical study based on the second parameter in the imaging protocol to validate the medical study.
Claims19
A method of validating a parameter in a medical study, the method comprising:
- receiving, by an interface, the medical study from a source;
- determining, by a processor, a first parameter of the medical study to be validated;
- receiving an imaging protocol from a configuration file in an imaging unit by the interface, wherein the imaging protocol comprises a second parameter corresponding to the first parameter in the medical study;
- determining, by the processor, if there is a mismatch of the first parameter in the medical study and the second parameter in the imaging protocol;
- and
- validating the medical study when there is a mismatch, the validating of the medical study comprising correcting, by the processor, the first parameter in the medical study based on the second parameter.
A local transmission unit for validating a parameter in a medical study, the local transmission unit comprising:
- an interface configured to:
- receive the medical study from a source, wherein the medical study comprises a first parameter;
- and
- receive an imaging protocol from a configuration file in an imaging unit, wherein the imaging protocol comprises a second parameter corresponding to the first parameter in the medical study;
- a processor configured to:
- determine the first parameter of the medical study to be validated;
- determine if there is a mismatch of the first parameter in the medical study and the second parameter in the imaging protocol;
- and
- validate the medical study when there is a mismatch, the validation of the medical study comprising correction of the first parameter in the medical study based on the second parameter in the imaging protocol.
A system for validating a parameter in a medical study, the system comprising:
- a medical scanner configured to scan an object and generate a medical study, wherein the medical study comprises a first parameter;
- a local transmission unit comprising:
- an interface configured to receive the medical study from the medical scanner;
- and
- a processor in a cloud computing environment, wherein the processor is configured to:
- determine the first parameter of the medical study to be validated;
- determine if there is a mismatch of the first parameter in the medical study and the second parameter in the imaging protocol;
- and
- validate the medical study when there is a mismatch, the validation of the medical study comprising correction of the first parameter in the medical study based on the second parameter in the imaging protocol.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium that stores machine-readable instructions executable by a server to validate a parameter in a medical study, the instructions comprising:
- receiving, by an interface, the medical study from a source;
- determining, by a processor, a first parameter of the medical study to be validated;
- receiving, by the interface, an imaging protocol from a configuration file in an imaging unit, wherein the imaging protocol comprises a second parameter corresponding to the first parameter in the medical study;
- determining, by the processor, if there is a mismatch of the first parameter in the medical study and the second parameter in the imaging protocol;
- and
- validating the medical study, validating the medical study comprising correcting, by the processor, the first parameter in the medical study based on the second parameter in the imaging protocol to validate if there is a mismatch.
