Description

  The present invention relates to a medical image processing system and a server device capable of managing information related to a clinical application used for medical practice.

  In recent years, doctors often perform examinations and medical treatments using specific terminal devices in specific examination rooms and interpretation rooms. In such a case, in many cases, there are many examples in which a plurality of doctors share the same terminal device according to a time-shift work style. Therefore, an increasing number of doctors use the unfamiliar terminal device to perform a medical examination / medical practice.

  Furthermore, in recent years, there have been many changes in doctors, and an increasing number of doctors work in a dispatched manner. A doctor who repeats a transfer or a doctor who works in a dispatched form must use an unfamiliar terminal device, usage environment, and clinical application when performing a medical examination / medical practice using a terminal device provided in a medical facility.

  By the way, a DICOM plug-in, which is a mechanism for simplifying the use of DICOM, which is a communication standard for medical information, has appeared. This DICOM plug-in is a function that supports communication of medical information in a clinical application. By using this function, it is possible to easily develop a clinical application. Several clinical applications have already been developed using DICOM plug-ins. In view of such a situation, it is considered that the user will be able to selectively use various clinical applications in various cases according to the usage environment.

For example, Patent Document 1 discloses the following technique as a medical technique that can easily change functions according to various usage environments. That is, Patent Document 1 discloses an ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus that transmits and receives ultrasonic waves to a subject and generates an ultrasonic image based on the obtained ultrasonic echo signal. Is selected, functions that can be selected according to the usage environment or disease information, and the functions that can be selected based on this determination are displayed. A providing method is disclosed.

In the medical image processing system according to the first embodiment, the user belongs to at least one group. Here, examples of the group include a group in a so-called social networking service (hereinafter abbreviated as SNS). More specifically, for example, a group of doctors from a specific field (cardiology internal medicine group, neurosurgery group, etc.) or a group of doctors from a specific region (Tokyo Medical Association Group, Tochigi Doctor) Group), a group of doctors from a specific hospital (ABC hospital group), and the like. The user can use SNS functions such as information exchange within the group by performing member registration in the group described above in advance. In the first embodiment, a code for identifying a group is referred to as a group ID.

  Note that the user may participate in a plurality of groups. Of course, it is not necessary to use SNS as means for realizing a group. When SNS is not used as means for realizing a group, means for defining a group for collecting users is required.

  By the way, the group information indicating the definition of the group can be registered / updated / deleted by using, for example, a tool in the SNS or another tool. As a matter of course, it is a precondition that the group is not a group of unrelated users but a group of doctors of the same specialty (for example, brain surgeons). When this precondition is satisfied, an application recommended by a group (details will be described later) is an application that is valuable to many users belonging to the group.

  The authentication unit 2B inquires of the user information management unit 2C about the login information of the user inquired from the user terminal device 4, and the user is a valid user in the medical image processing system 1 based on the inquiry result. Authenticate whether or not. When the authentication is successful (when the user is a valid user in the medical image processing system 1), user information related to the user is returned to the user terminal device 4.

  Here, the user information is information including at least a user ID for identifying a user, user authentication data used for authentication such as a user password, and a group ID for identifying a group to which the user belongs. .

FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating an example of a management table of operation environment information for each group. In the example shown in FIG. 2, each group ID is managed in association with a code indicating an operation environment related to the group as a “user application code”.

  More specifically, the group-specific operation environment information management unit 2D holds, for each group, a list of applications recommended for users registered in the group as the operation environment information of the group.

  The user-specific operation environment information management means 2E is means for holding each operation environment information for each user, and transmits / updates the operation environment information in response to an inquiry. FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating an example of a management table of operation environment information for each user. In the example illustrated in FIG. 3, each user ID, a group ID of a group to which the user belongs, and a code indicating an operation environment related to the user as “user application code” are managed in association with each other. .

  The operating environment information acquisition means 2F is means for acquiring operating environment information to be transmitted to the user terminal device 4 that is a client. More specifically, the operation environment information acquisition unit 2F acquires the user's operation environment information related to login from the user-specific operation environment information management unit 2E, and sets the operation environment of the group specified at the time of login as the group-specific operation environment. Obtained from the information management means 2D. Then, the operation environment information acquisition unit 2F transmits the user operation environment information and the group operation environment information acquired in this way to the user terminal device 4 that is a client.

  The group operation environment information registration / update unit 2G compares the user operation environment information acquired by the operation environment information acquisition unit 2F with the group operation environment information, and relates to the application newly registered by the user. This is means for additionally registering information as operation environment information of the group. As a result of the processing of the group operating environment information registration / update unit 2G, a user registered in any group can install an application installed by another user registered in the group as its own operating environment. It will also be possible to install automatically.

  The operating environment information registration / update unit 2H receives the operating environment information added / changed by the user at the user terminal device 4 as a client, and updates the information held by the user-specific operating environment information management unit 2E. By the processing of the operation environment information registration / update unit 2H, the user can use the operation environment at the previous login at the next login.

  The application management means 2I is means for holding the application management table shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 4, the application management table indicates, for each application, a user application code, an application information ID for identifying the application (simply abbreviated as application ID), an application name, and the location of the application.
