A method is for operating a medical imaging system including at least two executable application programs. An embodiment includes: a) a computing device of the imaging system detecting at least one display device by its properties relevant to visual display; b) the computing device retrieving at least one particular application-specific requirement made of a display device, using the at least two application programs, for visual display of corresponding application program information on a display device; c) comparing the properties detected for each at least one display device and the retrieved requirement; and d) according to a result of the comparison, the computing device either assigning the application programs respectively to the at least one display device or activating an assignment facility for a user, to increase efficiency when operating the medical imaging system having the at least two executable application programs in a manner convenient to a user.

Assigning different application programs of a medical imaging apparatus to detected display devices

A medical image evaluation and diagnosis system to dynamically connect clinical tools, clinical applications and clinical findings includes a work context auto alignment manager (WAALM). The WAALM extracts, from a clinical application and tool initiation request, clinical application and tool information for a first clinical taskflow, and connects, with at least a first clinical application initiated in response to the clinical application and tool initiation request, at least a first clinical tool based on the extracted clinical application and tool information, the first clinical tool being independent of the first clinical application.

Methods, apparatuses, systems and computer readable mediums for connecting applications and tools within medical taskflows

A method of operating a hospital information system, and a hospital information system are disclosed. In at least one embodiment, the method includes providing a taskflow editing tool with a limited number of editing options to a user; creating a taskflow defining a number of tasks and connections of the tasks by the user using the taskflow editing tool; and performing an automated test run of the created taskflow, wherein the automated test run is checked according to a number of criteria and wherein results of the check are reported to the user.

Method for operating a hospital information system

A method, computer readable medium and system are disclosed. The system includes one or more first interfaces communicatively coupled to a data storage device and one or more second interfaces communicatively coupled to a user interface, the control module being configured to share data, retrieved from the data storage device, across a plurality of virtual applications. The system further includes an application controller communicatively coupled to the control module, the application controller being configured to select at least one of the virtual applications based on information received via the at least one of the one or more second interfaces.
