Description

  The present invention relates to a failure information counting system for counting failure information indicating failures (hereinafter referred to as “failures”) caused by various causes that occur during radiographic image capturing.

  Conventionally, imaging methods using radiation (X-rays, α-rays, β-rays, γ-rays, electron beams, ultraviolet rays, etc.) have been used in various fields, and particularly in the medical field, the most important for diagnosis. It has become one of the means. Since the first X-ray photography was realized, the X-ray photography method has been improved many times, and at present, a method combining a fluorescent screen and an X-ray film has become mainstream. On the other hand, in recent years, various digitized devices such as X-ray CT, ultrasound, and MRI have been put into practical use as devices used for medical image diagnosis, such as diagnostic information processing systems in hospitals. Construction is going on. A lot of research for digitizing X-ray images has also been made, but a radiographic method using a stimulable phosphor has been established and attracts attention as a replacement for conventional X-ray photography.

  A stimulable phosphor (storable phosphor) is a part of its radiation energy that is stored when irradiated with radiation. After that, when it is irradiated with excitation light such as visible light, it emits light according to the stored energy. It has been known for a long time. The radiography method using this is a method in which a radiographic image of a subject such as a human body is photographed and recorded on a sheet coated with a stimulable phosphor, and this stimulable phosphor sheet is scanned with excitation light such as laser light. Since the exhaust light is generated, the image data is obtained by photoelectrically reading the stimulated light using an image reader. In an image processing device connected to an image reading device, this image data is appropriately processed and then output to a display such as a CRT or printed on a film by a laser printer or the like to display a radiation image as a visible image can do.

  Such a radiographic method has performance comparable to that of a conventional X-ray photography method in terms of imaging sensitivity and image quality. For example, compared with the conventional X-ray photography method, the exposure area is extremely wide, and the response of the photostimulated light to the exposure amount is almost proportional over the entire exposure area. For this reason, no matter what radiation dose the subject is photographed, it is possible to capture the emission region where the image exists and normalize it into a digital signal without excess or deficiency. Further, by combining the signal obtained in this way with an appropriate image processing method, it is possible to provide a steady and high-quality image even under various shooting conditions. Furthermore, since the digitized image information is obtained directly, not only can a large amount of data be stored for a long period of time without causing image deterioration, but also development into a medical diagnosis information system is possible. Become.

  By the way, in radiographic image capturing, failure (copying loss) due to various causes may occur. Causes of image loss include, for example, a simple cause that the patient as a subject has moved inadvertently, and a technical cause such as an erroneous setting of imaging conditions (eg, X-ray dose). .

  This kind of image loss is detected at the time when a certain time different from the shooting time has elapsed (specifically, during diagnosis or interpretation by a doctor). First of all, it is necessary to know what the initial shooting conditions were.

  In view of this, in the following Patent Document 1, the present applicant, in order to facilitate the input of imaging conditions for performing re-imaging in the case where an imaging failure has occurred, The patient information such as the patient's name, sex, date of birth and ID number, the date of imaging, the site to be imaged, the imaging method, the photostimulable phosphor sheet An image information processing system having a function of creating a copy of barcode information and photographing information such as image processing conditions) has been proposed.

In addition, there exist the following as a related technique of the failure information totalization system of this application.

  Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2004-259259 discloses a technique for reducing maintenance labor, reducing costs, enabling quick response when an error occurs, and maintaining each device constituting the medical image reading apparatus system in an optimal state. In the device information totaling process, controller, reservation device and reader error information is stored in the error log information table for each device, the error occurrence count for each error item is totaled, and the error log information display screen is displayed on the display unit. When the control unit receives the operation information from the reader, the operation information is stored in the reader log information table, the operation amount for each operation content is totaled, and the newly received operation information is stored in the RAM. The reader log information stored in the information table and the new operation information stored in the RAM are read, and the reader log information display screen is displayed on the display unit. Medical image reading system is disclosed that.

  However, the image information processing system of Patent Document 1 only stores a failure log (log: record of a process or the like) corresponding to a failure image. When analysis of the failure log is necessary, In addition to the problem that the user needs to check / edit the contents of the failure log and perform the aggregation, the analysis of the contents of the failure log is left to the user, so there is a problem that the burden on the user is heavy. there were.

  In addition, the information collection and provision system of Patent Literature 2 and the medical image reading system of Patent Literature 3 only collect, aggregate, and analyze information about the state of the apparatus and operation logs via a network. There was a problem that the correspondence with the failed image could not be grasped.

Furthermore, in these systems, it is necessary to output a failure log for each system and to check and manage (save and delete) the failure log for each system. In order to summarize and compare, there is a problem that it is necessary to collect and summarize a failure log by an operator operation.
