A system is used to control operation of a user device. An association between a medical condition and one or more decision trees is maintained. Each decision tree includes nodes organised in a tree structure originating at a root node and terminating at leaf nodes via branch nodes. The nodes are linked to each other via outputs and each output causes the system to differently control operation of the user device. Responsive to receiving medical information associated with the patient, using the association, a decision tree is identified. For the root node of the identified decision tree: a first node is selected, responsive to receiving data indicative of a first output regarding the root node; the user device is caused to retrieve medical information from one or more data sources based on the first node; and the retrieved medical information is caused to be displayed on the user device.

Healthcare network

A method and system are for identification of at least one medical reference image. An embodiment of the method includes providing a medical representation image based on a current examination image depicting a body part of a first patient; defining a region of interest in the medical representation image; generating a feature signature, at least for the region of interest; comparing the medical representation image with a plurality of medical images of at least one second patient stored in a medical image database, based on the feature signature generated; and identifying at least one medical image in the medical image database as the at least one medical reference image, the at least one medical reference image providing a similarity degree to the medical representation image above a threshold. In an embodiment, the generating is performed using a trained machine-learning algorithm.

Searching a medical reference image

A system is for supporting evaluation of a medical image data set. The system includes an interface unit to provide a display of a medical image data set, visualize an evaluation tool, visualize at least one result of an evaluation function, and receive user input relating to navigating the evaluation tool in the medical image data set to a region of interest, and selecting at least one of the evaluation functions. The system further includes a computing unit to process the user input to navigate the evaluation tool, perform the at least one evaluation function, and generate a visualization of at least one result of the evaluation function. The at least one result is adapted to be visualized as an overlay to the displayed image data set and/or evaluation tool.
