An information processing apparatus acquires, for each of a plurality of three-dimensional images, information about a position where a two-dimensional image included in the three-dimensional image is present, identifies, based on an instruction about a position of a two-dimensional image to be displayed at a display unit, a three-dimensional image to be a target of the instruction, and identifies, based on information about the position specified by the instruction, and the information about the position where the two-dimensional image is present for each of the plurality of three-dimensional images, a two-dimensional image which is included in the identified three-dimensional image, and which is to be displayed at the display unit.

Information processing apparatus, method, system, and storage medium for image display

A diagnosis support apparatus which supports diagnosis based on information associated with a diagnosis name in advance is provided. In the diagnosis support apparatus, an acquisition unit acquires the diagnosis name set by a user. A providing unit provides negative information for the diagnosis name set by the user based on the information. With the above arrangement, the diagnosis support apparatus selects and presents information influencing the diagnosis name expected by the user, thereby efficiently presenting information required by the user.

An image display apparatus includes a selection unit configured to select as a display image a second tomographic image in the case where a second acquisition unit successfully acquires the second tomographic image or in the case where a correspondence relationship between a first tomographic image and the second tomographic image satisfies a predetermined condition, or select a notification image in a case other than the above-described cases, and a display unit configured to display the first tomographic image and the display image selected by the selection unit in parallel or in a superimposed manner.

Image display apparatus, image display method, and storage medium

A user had to manually select a cross-sectional image indicating features of a finding and a cross-sectional image displayed in a report, from a three-dimensional medical image. Provided is an image processing apparatus that includes: a unit configured to acquire a target finding of a medical image; a unit configured to calculate an image feature quantity of a type associated in advance with the target finding, for each of a plurality of cross-sectional images of the medical image; and a unit configured to identify a cross-sectional image from the plurality of cross-sectional images based on the calculated image feature quantity. Operation of selecting a cross-sectional image by a doctor can be omitted, and the burden can be reduced.

Image processing apparatus and image processing method of a three-dimensional medical image

An image diagnosis assistance apparatus is configured to display a plurality of cross-sectional images on a display unit by sequentially switching the plurality of cross-sectional images; obtain user sight-line information including position information on a display screen of the display unit; and obtain a switching speed for switching the plurality of cross-sectional images. The image diagnosis assistance apparatus is configured to determine an observed area with respect to the plurality of cross-sectional images displayed on the display unit based on the obtained sight-line information and switching speed.

Image diagnosis assistance apparatus, control method, and program

A report creating support apparatus displays, on a display unit, an evaluation item associated with a diagnosis target and a plurality of evaluation values for the evaluation item, determines one indicated evaluation value from the plurality of evaluation values displayed, and superimposes criteria information of the indicated evaluation value and criteria information of not less than one evaluation value other than the indicated evaluation value among the plurality of evaluation values on display.

Report creating support apparatus, method for the same, and computer-readable storage medium

An information processing apparatus includes a region acquisition unit adapted to acquire a plurality of regions of interest on a medical image of an object to be examined, a designation unit adapted to designate regions of interest to be included in the same group out of the plurality of regions of interest, wherein the designation unit designates the regions of interest based on a user's instruction, and a display control unit adapted to cause a display unit to display an individual input region used to input individual findings information for each of the plurality of regions of interest and a common input region used to input findings information common to the regions of interest included in the group. The display control unit causes the display unit to display the individual input region and the common input region.

Information processing apparatus to display an individual input region for individual findings and a group input region for group findings

This invention provides a mechanism for making a doctor surely follow correct procedures in which the doctor confirms diagnosis information obtained by computer processing after he or she has completed interpretation. A medical diagnosis support apparatus executes diagnosis processing for acquiring medical diagnosis information from an image to be interpreted by computer processing. The medical diagnosis support apparatus accepts interpretation information as an interpretation result of the image to be interpreted, which information is input by, for example, a doctor. The medical diagnosis support apparatus calculates a degree of matching between the diagnosis information and interpretation information, and permits to present the diagnosis information acquired by the diagnosis processing when the calculated degree of matching exceeds a predetermined threshold.

Medical diagnosis support system

A diagnosis support apparatus which provides information for supporting medical diagnosis obtains known medical information of a diagnosis target held in a database as 'already-input' information, and has a selection unit that selects non-input information to be presented as medical information, other than the already-input information. A similar-case obtaining unit obtains, using the already-input information and the presentation non-input information, a case including the presentation non-input information from a case database, as a case similar to that of the diagnosis target, and a presentation unit presents the presentation non-input information and the similar case.
