When the presentation function 116 is executed, the processing circuit 11 presents to the image interpreting doctor the reason why printing is not normally performed.

Next, the operation of the report creation device 1 configured as described above will be described in detail. FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing an example of the operation when the report creation device 1 shown in FIG. 2 creates an interpretation report via the report creation server 2.

First, the report creation server 2 receives the order information for creating the interpretation report and the patient information of the patient to be the target of the interpretation report from the electronic medical record server. The order information includes, for example, inspection information of the target inspection, request source information, and the like. The examination information includes, for example, the examination date, the type of medical diagnostic imaging apparatus used in the examination, and the like. The requesting source information includes, for example, the requesting department, the requesting doctor, and the like. In addition, the patient information includes, for example, a patient ID, a patient name, a date of birth, an age, a gender, and the like. The order information may include information for identifying the medical image.

When the report creation server 2 receives the order information and the patient information, the report creation server 2 creates an interpretation report in which the patient information, the examination information, the request source information, etc., which are the targets of the interpretation report, are written. The patient information, examination information, and request source information written in the interpretation report include, for example, the patient ID of the target patient, patient name, date of birth, age, gender, examination date, and medical image diagnosis used in the examination. Includes device type, requesting department, requesting doctor, etc.

The interpretation doctor confirms the order of the interpretation report managed by the report creation server 2 via the report creation device 1. If there is an unexecuted interpretation order on the report creation server 2, the interpretation doctor selects an unexecuted interpretation order. The processing circuit 11 of the report creation device 1 executes the creation instruction function 111 when an unexecuted interpretation order is selected by the interpretation doctor. When the creation instruction function 111 is executed, the processing circuit 11 transmits an instruction signal instructing the start of creation of the interpretation report to the report creation server 2 (step S31).

When the report creation server 2 receives the instruction signal transmitted from the report creation device 1, the report creation server 2 transmits the display data about the report creation screen for inputting necessary items to the interpretation report in which the predetermined information is written to the report creation device 1. To do.

The report creation device 1 receives the display data transmitted from the report creation server 2. The processing circuit 11 of the report creation device 1 displays a report creation screen based on the received display data on a display device provided as an output interface 13 (step S32). On the report creation screen, for example, a patient information display column in which the patient ID, patient name, date of birth, age, and gender are displayed, an examination information display column in which the examination date and examination type are displayed, a requesting department, a requesting doctor, etc. The request source information display field, the finding input field, the fixed phrase selection button, the key image attachment field, etc. are displayed. The processing circuit 11 is the patient ID, patient name, date of birth, age, gender, examination date, and examination displayed in the patient information display column, examination information display column, and request source information display column on the report creation screen. Information on the type of medical diagnostic imaging apparatus used, the requesting department, the requesting doctor, and the like is stored in the storage circuit 15 (step S33).

When the report creation screen is displayed, the radiologist inputs a medical image display request for the target examination via the input interface 12 of the report creation device 1. The processing circuit 11 of the report creation device 1 requests the image server 3 for a medical image desired by the image interpreting doctor (step S34).

When the image server 3 receives the request signal transmitted from the report creation device 1, the image server 3 searches the stored image file for an image file for the target inspection. At this time, as the search key, for example, a patient ID, an examination UID, a series UID, or the like is used. The image server 3 transmits the image file acquired by the search to the report creation device 1.

The report creation device 1 receives an image file transmitted from the image server 3. The processing circuit 11 of the report creation device 1 displays a medical image based on the received image file on a display device provided as an output interface 13 (step S35).

When the medical image is displayed, the image interpreting doctor interprets the displayed medical image and writes necessary information on the displayed report creation screen. In addition, the interpreting doctor attaches the necessary medical image to the displayed report creation screen. The processing circuit 11 of the report creation device 1 stores the information input by the image interpreter in the storage circuit 15 (step S36). Specifically, the processing circuit 11 stores the finding information input by the image interpreter on the report creation screen in the storage circuit 15. Further, the processing circuit 11 stores in the storage circuit 15 the number of attached medical images attached on the report creation screen by the image interpreting doctor and the image size of the medical images.

FIG. 4 is a schematic diagram showing an example of information stored in the storage circuit 15 of the report creation device 1 shown in FIG. According to FIG. 4, the information stored in the storage circuit 15 includes the patient ID, patient name, date of birth, age, gender, examination date, type of medical image diagnostic apparatus used in the examination, requesting department, and Includes the requesting doctor, findings information, the number of attached medical images attached, and the image size of the medical image.

The processing circuit 11 of the report creation device 1 transmits the information input to the report creation screen to the report creation server 2 (step S37).

When the report creation server 2 receives the information transmitted from the report creation device 1, the report creation server 2 stores the received information.

Subsequently, the processing circuit 11 of the report creation device 1 determines whether or not the content of the interpretation report has been finalized (step S38). On the report creation screen, a "confirm" button indicating that the content of the interpretation report has been confirmed is displayed. The interpreting doctor clicks the "Confirm" button to confirm the content displayed on the report creation screen. When the "confirm" button is clicked, the processing circuit 11 determines that the content of the interpretation report has been confirmed (Yes in step S38), and sends a confirmation signal indicating that the content of the interpretation report has been confirmed to the report creation server 2. It is transmitted (step S39) and the process is terminated. If the interpreting doctor does not click the "confirm" button, the processing circuit 11 determines that the content of the interpretation report has not been confirmed (No in step S38), and shifts the process to step S36.

Next, the operation of the report creation device 1 to confirm whether or not the interpretation report is printed correctly will be described. FIG. 5 is a flowchart showing an example of the operation of the report creating device 1 shown in FIG. 2 when confirming whether or not the interpretation report is printed correctly. Note that FIG. 5 describes a case where the report creation device 1 starts the operation with a print confirmation instruction input from the image interpreting doctor as a trigger. However, it is not limited to this. The input that becomes the trigger can be set arbitrarily. For example, a print instruction for one selected interpretation report may be a trigger, or a print instruction for a plurality of interpretation reports created in a predetermined day may be a trigger.

In FIG. 5, first, when the “print confirmation” button displayed on the report creation screen is clicked by the radiologist, a preview signal is transmitted from the report creation device 1 to the report creation server 2 (step S51).

When the report creation server 2 receives the preview signal transmitted from the report creation device 1, the report creation server 2 transmits information about the created interpretation report to the report creation device 1.

The report creation device 1 receives information about the interpretation report transmitted from the report creation server 2. The processing circuit 11 of the report creation device 1 executes the print confirmation function 112 when it receives information about the interpretation report. When the print confirmation function 112 is executed, the processing circuit 11 creates an image in a format conforming to the print format, that is, preview data, based on the information of the received interpretation report (step S52).

Specifically, the processing circuit 11 reads out information 151 regarding the printing style, that is, layout information and information regarding characters from the storage circuit 15.

The layout information includes information for arranging a plurality of areas for displaying the information input in the interpretation report. As the area for displaying information, for example, a patient information area, a title area, a related information area, a finding information area, and an image attachment area can be assumed. The patient information area is an area for displaying patient information such as patient ID, patient name, date of birth, age, and gender. The title area is an area for displaying the title of an interpretation report such as "inspection report". The related information area is an area for displaying information such as the examination date, the type of medical image diagnostic device used in the examination, the requesting department, and the requesting doctor. The finding information area is an area for displaying the finding information. The image attachment area is an area for attaching a medical image. As information for arranging these areas, for example, four coordinate points forming each area can be assumed when the upper left corner of the printing paper is set to the coordinates (0,0). As information about characters, typeface, size, line spacing, and wrapping conditions can be assumed.

The processing circuit 11 sets, for example, a patient information area, a title area, a related information area, a finding information area, and an image attachment area based on the read layout information. The processing circuit 11 writes patient information such as the patient ID, patient name, date of birth, age, and gender described in the received interpretation report in the patient information area under predetermined typeface, size, line spacing, and wrapping conditions. .. Further, the processing circuit 11 writes "inspection report" or the like as a title in the title area under predetermined typeface, size, line spacing, and wrapping conditions. In addition, the processing circuit 11 has a predetermined typeface, size, line spacing, and wrapping conditions in the related information area, the inspection date described in the received interpretation report, the type of the medical image diagnostic apparatus used in the inspection, and the request department. , And write the information of the requesting doctor, etc. Further, the processing circuit 11 writes the finding information described in the received interpretation report in the finding information area under predetermined typeface, size, line spacing, and wrapping conditions. Further, the processing circuit 11 attaches a medical image attached in the received interpretation report to the image attachment area. FIG. 6 is a diagram showing an example of a schematic diagram of preview data created by the processing circuit 11 shown in FIG.

The processing circuit 11 executes the analysis function 113 when the preview data is created. When the analysis function 113 is executed, the processing circuit 11 analyzes the created preview data by using the layout information stored in the storage circuit 15 (step S53).

Specifically, the processing circuit 11 reads out the layout information from the storage circuit 15. The processing circuit 11 sets, for example, a patient information area, a title area, a related information area, a finding information area, and an image attachment area based on the read layout information. For example, in the processing circuit 11, the area obtained by subtracting the margin from the left end of the printing paper and 7.5 cm from the upper end is defined as the patient information area.

The processing circuit 11 reads the characters and numbers described in the set areas, that is, the patient information area, the title area, the related information area, and the finding information area by using, for example, a predetermined character recognition program. .. The processing circuit 11 stores the information read from the related information area in the storage circuit 15 as "patient information at the time of printing". Further, the processing circuit 11 stores the information read from the title area in the storage circuit 15 as "title information at the time of printing". Further, the processing circuit 11 stores the information read from the related information area in the storage circuit 15 as "related information at the time of printing". Further, the processing circuit 11 stores the information read from the finding information area in the storage circuit 15 as "finding information at the time of printing".

Further, the processing circuit 11 reads the medical image attached to the image attachment area. The processing circuit 11 stores the number of read figures in the storage circuit 15 as a “number of attachments at the time of printing”. Further, the processing circuit 11 converts the vertical and horizontal lengths of the figures read in dpi (Dots Per Inch) units into pixel units. The processing circuit 11 stores the vertical and horizontal lengths of the figure converted into pixel units in the storage circuit 15 as the “image size at the time of printing”.

The processing circuit 11 executes the determination function 114 when it acquires the information in each area included in the preview data. When the determination function 114 is executed, the processing circuit 11 refers to the information input when the interpretation report is created, and determines whether or not the interpretation report is normally printed.

Specifically, the processing circuit 11 reads out the information input at the time of creating the interpretation report shown in FIG. 4 from the storage circuit 15. The processing circuit 11 compares the information read from the storage circuit 15 with the information acquired in step S53 (step S54). For example, the processing circuit 11 compares the patient ID, patient name, date of birth, age, and gender read from the storage circuit 15 with the "patient information at the time of printing". Further, the processing circuit 11 compares the inspection date, type, requesting department, and requesting doctor read from the storage circuit 15 with "related information at the time of printing". Further, the processing circuit 11 compares the finding information read from the storage circuit 15 with the "finding information at the time of printing". Further, the processing circuit 11 compares the number of attachments read from the storage circuit 15 with the "number of attachments at the time of printing". Further, the processing circuit 11 compares the image size read from the storage circuit 15 with the "image size at the time of printing".

The processing circuit 11 determines whether or not printing is normal based on the comparison result between the information read from the storage circuit 15 and the information acquired in step S53 (step S55). For example, all the information read from the storage circuit 15 is "patient information at the time of printing", "related information at the time of printing", "finding information at the time of printing", "number of attachments at the time of printing", and "printing". If it matches the "image size at the time", the processing circuit 11 determines that printing is normal (Yes in step S55).

On the other hand, if at least one of the patient ID, patient name, date of birth, age, and gender read from the storage circuit 15 does not match the information contained in the "patient information at the time of printing", the processing circuit 11 Determines that printing is not normal (No in step S55). If at least one of the examination date, type, requesting department, and requesting doctor read from the storage circuit 15 does not match the information included in the "related information at the time of printing", the processing circuit 11 prints. Is not normal (No in step S55). Further, if the finding information read from the storage circuit 15 does not match the "finding information at the time of printing", the processing circuit 11 determines that printing is not normal (No in step S55). If the number of attachments read from the storage circuit 15 does not match the "number of attachments at the time of printing", the processing circuit 11 determines that printing is not normal (No in step S55). If the image size read from the storage circuit 15 does not match the "image size at the time of printing", the processing circuit 11 determines that printing is not normal (No in step S55).

When it is determined that printing is normal (Yes in step S55), the processing circuit 11 ends the processing. On the other hand, when it is determined that printing is not normal (No in step S55), the processing circuit 11 executes the notification function 115. When the notification function 115 is executed, the processing circuit 11 notifies the image interpreting doctor that printing is not normally performed in the area where the information read from the storage circuit 15 and the read information do not match (step S56).

Specifically, in step S54, at least one of the patient ID, patient name, date of birth, age, and gender read from the storage circuit 15 is the information included in the "patient information at the time of printing". If they do not match, the processing circuit 11 notifies the image interpreter that the printing of the patient information area is not normally performed. If at least one of the examination date, type, requesting department, and requesting doctor read from the storage circuit 15 does not match the information included in the "related information at the time of printing", the processing circuit 11 is related. Notify the radiologist that the printing of the information area is not performed normally. Further, when the finding information read from the storage circuit 15 does not match the "finding information at the time of printing", the processing circuit 11 notifies the image interpreting doctor that the printing of the finding information area is not normally performed. Further, when the number of attachments read from the storage circuit 15 does not match the "number of attachments at the time of printing", the processing circuit 11 notifies the image interpreting doctor that the printing of the image attachment area is not normally performed. If the image size read from the storage circuit 15 does not match the "image size at the time of printing", the processing circuit 11 notifies the image interpreting doctor that the printing of the patient information area is not normally performed.

The notification to the image interpreting doctor is realized, for example, by displaying on a display device provided as the output interface 13 that printing is not normally performed. Further, the notification to the image interpretation doctor may be realized by transmitting an e-mail to a mobile terminal such as PHS possessed by the image interpretation doctor via the communication interface 14.

When the processing circuit 11 notifies that printing is not normally performed, the processing circuit 11 executes the presentation function 116. When the presentation function 116 is executed, the processing circuit 11 presumes that there is a problem with the information 151 regarding the print format stored in the storage circuit 15. The processing circuit 11 presents the estimated problem to the image interpreter (step S57). For example, the processing circuit 11 displays the estimated problem on a display device provided as the output interface 13. The processing circuit 11 may notify the estimated problem to a mobile terminal such as PHS possessed by the image interpreting doctor by e-mail via the communication interface 14.

As described above, in the first embodiment, the report creation device 1 and the report creation server 2 create an interpretation report. The report creation device 1 stores information input when creating an interpretation report. When the creation of the interpretation report is completed, the report creation device 1 converts the created interpretation report into preview data in a format conforming to the printing format. The report creation device 1 analyzes the preview data and acquires the information contained in the preview data.

The report creation system 4 shown in FIG. 7 includes a report creation device 1B, a printing device 41, and a reading device 42. The printing device 41 and the reading device 42 are connected to the report creating device 1B by wire or wirelessly. The report creation device 1B is connected to a network in the hospital such as a LAN.

The report creation device 1B is, for example, a device for a radiologist to create an image interpretation report for a medical image. The report creation device 1B is realized by, for example, a PC terminal constituting PACS. The report creation device 1 may be realized by a PC terminal constituting a radiological department information management system (RIS).

The report creation device 1B causes the report creation server 2 to create an interpretation report by transmitting an instruction signal to create an interpretation report, which is input from the interpretation doctor, to the report creation server 2. The report creation device 1B requests the image server 3 for a medical image necessary for creating an interpretation report.

The report creation device 1B determines whether or not the medical document printed from the printing device 41 has been printed normally based on the image information read by the reading device 42.

The printing device 41 is a device that prints a medical document based on an interpretation report created by the report creating device 1B and the report creating server 2. Specifically, for example, the printing device 41 receives the print data according to the printing format transmitted from the report creating device 1B by the input interface 412. The printing device 41 converts the print data into a printable format by the conversion function 4111 of the processing circuit 411. The printing device 41 prints a medical document from the printing circuit 413 based on the print data after the format conversion.

The reading device 42 is a device that reads a medical document printed by the printing device 41. The reading device 42 is provided, for example, at a position where the medical document printed out from the printing device 41 can be read. The reading device 42 reads the image information of the printed medical document. The reading device 42 converts the read image information into a format that can be transmitted to the report creating device 1B. The reading device 42 transmits the image information after the format conversion to the report creating device 1B.

The report creation device 1B shown in FIG. 7 includes a processing circuit 11B, an input interface 12B, an output interface 13B, a communication interface 14, and a storage circuit 15B. The processing circuit 11B, the input interface 12B, the output interface 13B, the communication interface 14, and the storage circuit 15B are connected to each other so as to be able to communicate with each other via, for example, a bus.

The processing circuit 11B is a processor that functions as the center of the report creation device 1B. The processing circuit 11B realizes a function corresponding to the processing program stored in the storage circuit 15B or the like by executing the processing program.

The input interface 12B includes physical operating components such as a mouse and a keyboard. Further, the input interface 12B includes a circuit that receives the read data transmitted from the reading device 42 and outputs the read data to the processing circuit 11B.

The output interface 13B includes a circuit that communicates with the printing device 41 according to a preset communication standard. The output interface 13B transmits the image data to be printed to the printing device 41.

The storage circuit 15B is a storage device such as an HDD, an SSD, and an integrated circuit storage device that stores various information. Further, the storage circuit 15B may be a drive device or the like that reads and writes various information with and from a portable storage medium such as a CD-ROM drive, a DVD drive, and a flash memory. The storage circuit 15B stores a processing program or the like according to the present embodiment. Further, the storage circuit 15B stores information 151 regarding the printing style.

Further, the storage circuit 15B stores information 152 regarding the correction mode. The information 152 regarding the correction form includes layout information, information regarding characters, and the like. The layout information of the correction form is information regarding the arrangement of the correction document described later. The correction style layout is different from the print style layout. The information 152 regarding the correction format is stored in the storage circuit 15B in a file format, for example.

The processing circuit 11B shown in FIG. 7 realizes a function corresponding to the processing program stored in the storage circuit 15B by executing the processing program. For example, the processing circuit 11B has a creation instruction function 111, an analysis function 113B, a determination function 114, a notification function 115, a presentation function 116B, a creation function 117, and a correction document creation function 118 by executing a processing program. In this embodiment, a case where the creation instruction function 111, the analysis function 113B, the determination function 114, the notification function 115, the presentation function 116B, the creation function 117, and the correction document creation function 118 are realized by a single processor will be described. However, it is not limited to this. For example, a processing circuit is configured by combining a plurality of independent processors, and each processor executes a processing program to create a creation instruction function 111, an analysis function 113B, a judgment function 114, a notification function 115, a presentation function 116B, and a creation function 117. , And the correction document creation function 118 may be realized.

The creation function 117 is a function for converting the created interpretation report into a print format. Specifically, for example, the processing circuit 11B executes the creation function 117 when it receives a printing instruction from an image interpreting doctor. When the creation function 117 is executed, the processing circuit 11B creates print data according to the print format based on the information 151 regarding the print format stored in the storage circuit 15B and the created image interpretation report. The processing circuit 11B outputs the created print data from the output interface 13B to the printing device 41.

The analysis function 113B is a function for analyzing image information transmitted from the reading device 42. Specifically, for example, when the processing circuit 11B receives the image information from the reading device 42 via the input interface 12B, the processing circuit 11B executes the analysis function 113B. When the analysis function 113B is executed, the processing circuit 11B analyzes the received image information using the information 151 regarding the printing style stored in the storage circuit 15B, and acquires various information included in the image information.

The presentation function 116B is a function of presenting the cause of the printing failure to the image interpreting doctor. Specifically, for example, the processing circuit 11B executes the presentation function 116B when it determines that the medical document is not normally executed. When the presentation function 116B is executed, the processing circuit 11B presents the reason why printing was not performed normally to the image interpreting doctor.

The corrected document creation function 118 is a function for creating a corrected document for a medical document that has not been printed normally. Specifically, for example, the processing circuit 11B executes the correction document creation function 118 when it is determined that the medical document has not been normally executed. When the correction document creation function 118 is executed, the processing circuit 11B creates a correction document including the information described in the area that was not normally printed in the medical document according to a unique format.

Next, the operation of the report creation device 1B configured as described above will be described in detail. FIG. 8 is a flowchart showing an example of the operation of the report creating device 1B shown in FIG. 7 when confirming whether or not the medical document has been printed correctly. Note that FIG. 8 describes a case where the report creation device 1B starts the operation with a print instruction input from the image interpreting doctor as a trigger. However, it is not limited to this. The input that becomes the trigger can be set arbitrarily. For example, a print instruction for a plurality of interpretation reports created in a predetermined day may be a trigger.

In FIG. 8, first, when the “print” button displayed on the report creation screen is clicked by the radiologist, a print signal is transmitted from the report creation device 1B to the report creation server 2 (step S81).

When the report creation server 2 receives the preview signal transmitted from the report creation device 1B, the report creation server 2 transmits information about the created interpretation report to the report creation device 1B.

The report creation device 1B receives information about the interpretation report transmitted from the report creation server 2. When the processing circuit 11B of the report creation device 1B receives the information about the interpretation report, the processing circuit 11B executes the creation function 117. When the creation function 117 is executed, the processing circuit 11B creates an image in a format conforming to the print format, that is, print data, based on the information of the received interpretation report (step S82). The print data is created by the same processing as the preview data shown in the first embodiment.

When the processing circuit 11B creates print data, the processing circuit 11B transmits the created print data from the output interface 13B to the printing device 41 (step S83). When the printing device 41 receives the print data, it converts the received print data into a printable format. The printing device 41 prints a medical document based on the print data after the format conversion.

The reading device 42 reads the image information of the medical document printed by the printing device 41. The reading device 42 converts the read image information into a predetermined format and transmits it to the report creating device 1B.

The reading device 42 may have a character recognition function. At this time, the reading device 42 performs character recognition processing on the read image information to create text data about the characters included in the image information. Then, the reading device 42 transmits the read image information to the report creating device 1B with text data. However, when the analysis function 113 has the character recognition function, it is not necessary to provide the character recognition function in the reading device 42.

The report creating device 1B receives the image information transmitted from the reading device 42 (step S84). When the processing circuit 11B of the report creating device 1B receives the image information, the processing circuit 11B executes the analysis function 113B. When the analysis function 113B is executed, the processing circuit 11B analyzes the received image information by using the layout information stored in the storage circuit 15B (step S85).

Specifically, the processing circuit 11B reads out the layout information from the storage circuit 15B. The processing circuit 11B sets, for example, a patient information area, a title area, a related information area, a finding information area, and an image attachment area based on the read layout information.

The processing circuit 11B reads the characters and numbers described in each set area, that is, the patient information area, the title area, the related information area, and the finding information area by using, for example, a predetermined character recognition program. .. In the processing circuit 11B, the information read from the related information area is "printed patient information", the information read from the title area is "printed title information", and the information read from the related information area is "printed related information". , And the information read from the finding information area is stored in the storage circuit 15B as "printed finding information".

Further, the processing circuit 11B reads the medical image attached to the image attachment area. The processing circuit 11B stores the number of read figures as the “number of printed attachments” and the vertical and horizontal lengths of the read figures as the “printed image size” in the storage circuit 15B.

Further, the processing circuit 11B detects printing in an area other than the patient information area, the title area, the related information area, the finding information area, and the image attachment area, that is, a margin area in which characters and the like should not be printed. When the margin area contains characters, numbers, dirt, etc., the processing circuit 11B stores a discrimination flag indicating that fact in the storage circuit 15B.

Further, the processing circuit 11B detects characters and numbers that cannot be identified in the patient information area, the title area, the related information area, and the finding information area. The processing circuit 11B stores the number of characters and numbers that could not be identified in the storage circuit 15B.

When the processing circuit 11B acquires the information in each region included in the image information, the processing circuit 11B executes the determination function 114. When the determination function 114 is executed, the processing circuit 11B refers to the information input when the interpretation report is created, and determines whether or not the medical document has been printed normally.

Specifically, the processing circuit 11B reads out the information input at the time of creating the interpretation report from the storage circuit 15B. The processing circuit 11B compares the information read from the storage circuit 15B with the information acquired in step S85 (step S86). For example, the processing circuit 11B compares the patient ID, patient name, date of birth, age, and gender read from the storage circuit 15B with the "printed patient information". Further, the processing circuit 11B compares the inspection date, type, requesting department, and requesting doctor read from the storage circuit 15B with the “printed related information”. Further, the processing circuit 11B compares the finding information read from the storage circuit 15B with the "printed finding information". Further, the processing circuit 11B compares the number of attachments read from the storage circuit 15B with the "number of printed attachments". Further, the processing circuit 11B compares the image size read from the storage circuit 15B with the “printed image size”.

The processing circuit 11B determines whether or not printing is normal based on the comparison result between the information read from the storage circuit 15B and the information acquired in step S85 (step S87). For example, all the information read from the storage circuit 15B is "printed patient information", "printed related information", "printed finding information", "printed number of attachments", and "printed". If it matches the "image size", the processing circuit 11B determines that the printing has been performed normally (Yes in step S87).

On the other hand, if at least one of the patient ID, patient name, date of birth, age, and gender read from the storage circuit 15B does not match the information contained in the "printed patient information", the processing circuit 11B Determines that printing has not been performed normally (No in step S87). If at least one of the examination date, type, requesting department, and requesting doctor read from the storage circuit 15B does not match the information included in the "printed related information", the processing circuit 11B prints. Is determined not to be normal (No in step S87). If the finding information read from the storage circuit 15B does not match the "printed finding information", the processing circuit 11B determines that printing has not been performed normally (No in step S87). If the number of attachments read from the storage circuit 15B does not match the "number of attachments printed", the processing circuit 11B determines that printing has not been performed normally (No in step S87). If the image size read from the storage circuit 15B does not match the "printed image size", the processing circuit 11B determines that printing has not been performed normally (No in step S87).

When it is determined that the printing is normal (Yes in step S87), the processing circuit 11B ends the processing. On the other hand, when it is determined that printing has not been performed normally (No in step S87), the processing circuit 11B executes the notification function 115. When the notification function 115 is executed, the processing circuit 11B notifies the image interpreting doctor that printing has not been normally performed in the area where the information read from the storage circuit 15B and the read information do not match (step S88). ).

Specifically, in step S86, at least one of the patient ID, patient name, date of birth, age, and gender read from the storage circuit 15B is included in the "printed patient information". If they do not match, the processing circuit 11B notifies the image interpreter that the printing of the patient information area has not been performed normally. If at least one of the examination date, type, requesting department, and requesting doctor read from the storage circuit 15B does not match the information contained in the "printed related information", the processing circuit 11B is related. Notify the radiologist that the printing of the information area was not performed normally. Further, when the finding information read from the storage circuit 15B does not match the "printed finding information", the processing circuit 11B notifies the image interpreting doctor that the finding information area has not been printed normally. .. If the number of attachments read from the storage circuit 15B does not match the "number of attachments printed", the processing circuit 11B notifies the image interpreting doctor that the image attachment area has not been printed normally. If the image size read from the storage circuit 15B does not match the "printed image size", the processing circuit 11B notifies the image interpreting doctor that the printing of the patient information area has not been performed normally.

The notification to the image interpreting doctor is realized, for example, by displaying on a display device provided as the output interface 13B that printing is not normally performed. Further, the notification to the image interpretation doctor may be realized by transmitting an e-mail to a mobile terminal such as PHS possessed by the image interpretation doctor via the communication interface 14.

When the processing circuit 11B notifies the image interpretation doctor that printing has not been normally performed in step S88, the processing circuit 11B executes the correction document creation function 118. When the correction document creation function 118 is executed, the processing circuit 11B creates a correction document (step S89).

Specifically, the processing circuit 11B reads out the information 152 regarding the correction mode from the storage circuit 15B. The information 152 regarding the correction form includes layout information, information regarding characters, and the like. When the processing circuit 11B normally prints the patient information area, the related information area, or the finding information area, the processing circuit 11B stores information about the items included in the area where the printing is not normally performed. Read from. The processing circuit 11B creates the correction document data including the identification information of the correction document and the information read from the storage circuit 15B according to the correction format. The identification information of the corrected document includes the report ID of the interpretation report, the patient ID, the name of the area, and the like.

When the processing circuit 11B creates the correction document data, the processing circuit 11B transmits the created correction document data from the output interface 13B to the printing device 41. When the printing device 41 receives the corrected document data, it converts the received corrected document data into a printable format. The printing device 41 prints the corrected document based on the corrected document data after the format conversion.

FIG. 9 is a schematic diagram showing an example of a corrected document printed by the report creation system 4 shown in FIG. 7. The corrected document shown in FIG. 9 represents an example of a corrected document that is printed when the patient information area is not printed normally.

Further, the processing circuit 11B reads out the information about the attached image from the storage circuit 15B when the printing of the image attachment area is not normally performed. The processing circuit 11B uses the layout information of the correction format to determine the arrangement of a predetermined number of medical images and a predetermined image size on the correction document. The processing circuit 11B creates a corrected document by attaching a corresponding medical image to the determined position.

FIG. 10 is a schematic diagram showing an example of a corrected document printed by the report creation system 4 shown in FIG. 7. The corrected document shown in FIG. 10 represents an example of a corrected document created when the image attachment area is not printed normally.

As for the correction style, any layout can be taken as long as the layout is different from the layout of the print style. Further, the corrected document may be prepared in a different document for each area. For example, when printing is not normally performed in the patient information area and the related information area, the processing circuit 11B provides a correction document for describing information about the patient information area and a correction document for describing information about the related information area. It may be created separately.

In addition, the corrected document may represent information about items included in a plurality of areas in the same document. For example, when printing is not normally performed in the patient information area and the related information area, the processing circuit 11B may create a correction document describing the information about the patient information area and the information about the related information area. ..

The processing circuit 11B executes the presentation function 116B when the corrected document is printed. When the presentation function 116B is executed, the processing circuit 11B stores a discrimination flag indicating that there are characters, numbers, stains, etc. in the margin area, and the number of characters and numbers that could not be identified in the storage circuit 15B. Read from. The processing circuit 11B estimates a problem in the printing environment based on the presence / absence of the discrimination flag, the number of unidentifiable characters, the judgment of printing failure, and the like.

FIG. 11 is a diagram showing an example of a table used by the processing circuit 11B shown in FIG. 7 when estimating a problem in the printing environment. The processing circuit 11B uses FIG. 11, and estimates the problem of the printing environment as follows, for example.

For example, when the number of unidentifiable characters is a predetermined number or more, the processing circuit 11B determines that the print quality has deteriorated, and presumes that the ink has run out or the printing device 41 has failed.

When the number of unidentifiable characters is less than a predetermined number, the processing circuit 11B estimates a problem in the printing environment based on the presence / absence of the discrimination flag and the determination of printing failure. If there is a determination flag and printing fails, the processing circuit 11B determines that any of the contents described in the item is out of the margin area, and presumes that there is a problem with the printer driver. If there is a discrimination flag and it is determined that printing is normal, the processing circuit 11B determines that there is dirt or the like in the margin region, and presumes that there is a problem with the printing device 41. If there is no discrimination flag and printing fails, the processing circuit 11B has the printed information cut off in the middle, the printed information is covered with each other, the number of key images printed is insufficient, and the like. It is determined that a problem has occurred, and it is presumed that there is a problem in the information 151 regarding the print format stored in the storage circuit 15B.

The processing circuit 11B presents the estimated printing environment problem to the image interpreter (step S810). For example, the processing circuit 11B causes the estimated printing environment problem to be displayed on a display device provided as the output interface 13. The processing circuit 11B may notify the estimated printing environment problem to a mobile terminal such as PHS possessed by the image interpreting doctor by e-mail via the communication interface 14.

As described above, when the print instruction is input, the report creation device 1B according to the second embodiment converts the created interpretation report into electronic data in a format conforming to the print format. The printing device 41 prints a medical document based on electronic data in a printing format. The reading device 42 reads the printing medical document as image information. The report creation device 1B analyzes the read image information and acquires the information included in the image information. Then, the report creation device 1B collates the acquired information with the information stored at the time of creating the interpretation report, and determines whether or not printing is normally performed. As a result, the report creation device 1B can notify the image interpreting doctor of the lack of information in the printed medical information.

Therefore, according to the report creation system according to the second embodiment, it is possible to prevent the loss of information when printing the interpretation report.

Further, in the second embodiment, when the printing is not performed normally, the report creating device 1B prints the information of the area that was not normally printed in a format different from the printing format. As a result, necessary information will be transmitted without omission.

Further, in the second embodiment, the report creation device 1B estimates a problem in the printing environment and presents the estimated problem when printing is not performed normally. This allows the radiologist to find the cause of the printing failure without effort.
