Description

The present invention relates to a photography control device, a photography control system, a photography control method, and a program.

Traditionally, imaging examinations have been performed in the medical field using radiography systems. To improve the operational efficiency of imaging examinations, for example, Patent Document 1 describes a method for displaying the name of the next patient on a guide board and an audible announcement while the previous patient is being imaged, thereby overlapping the dressing of the previous patient whose current examination has been completed with the undressing of the next patient, thereby improving the utilization efficiency of the imaging room.

Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2004-97636

When examining multiple patients in one radiography room, as in the case of the invention described in Patent Document 1, the typical flow is: radiography of Patient A → confirmation and adjustment of the images → completion of examination → selection of the radiography order for the next Patient B → preparation for radiography for Patient B → radiography of Patient B. With the invention described in Patent Document 1, it is possible to call in the next Patient B while the previous Patient A is being radiographed, but in cases where it takes time to confirm the images, such as in long-length radiography, the radiographer cannot prepare for radiography of the next Patient B until confirmation of the images of Patient A is complete. Therefore, even if the next Patient B can be called in earlier, the radiographer must first confirm the images of Patient A before preparing for radiography for Patient B, and therefore the waiting time for the next Patient B cannot be shortened. The more patients are radiographed, the longer this total waiting time becomes, which impedes the operational efficiency of imaging examinations.

The present invention aims to further improve the operational efficiency of imaging examinations.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. However, the scope of the invention is not limited to the illustrated examples.

First Embodiment
FIG. 1 is a diagram showing an X-ray imaging system 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention.
The X-ray imaging system 1 is an integrated imaging system that performs X-ray imaging while coordinating the X-ray generation device 20 and the X-ray imaging device 10 as an imaging control system by exchanging signals and the like between them.

As shown in FIG. 1 , the X-ray imaging system 1 includes an X-ray imaging device 10 and an X-ray generating device 20 .
The X-ray imaging system 1 is connected to a picture archiving and communication system (PACS) 31, a hospital information system (HIS) 32, and a radiology information system (RIS) 33 via a communication network.
In the communication network including the X-ray imaging system 1, the PACS 31, the HIS 32, and the RIS 33, information is transmitted and received in accordance with, for example, the DICOM (Digital Image and Communications in Medicine) standard.

The X-ray imaging device 10 includes an imaging control device 11, an FPD 12, an imaging table 13, a repeater 14, and the like.
The X-ray imaging device 10 visualizes X-rays that have passed through an imaging target region, such as the chest or abdomen, and captures an X-ray image that shows the state inside the body.

The FPD 12 is an imaging device that detects X-rays that are emitted from the X-ray tube device 25 and transmitted through the subject, and outputs X-ray image data.
The FPD 12 is mounted on, for example, an imaging stand 13 and is communicably connected to the imaging control device 11 via the imaging stand 13 and a repeater 14 by wired communication.
The FPD 12 may be connected to the imaging control device 11 by wireless communication. When the FPD 12 has a wireless communication function, the FPD 12 can be placed on a bed on which the subject lies supine or held by the subject, instead of being attached to a dedicated imaging table 13.

The FPD 12 includes, for example, a scintillator that converts incident X-rays into light, PDs (Photo Diodes) arranged in a matrix corresponding to pixels, and TFT (Thin Film Transistor) switches arranged corresponding to each PD (all not shown).
The incident X-rays are converted into light by the scintillator and then incident on the PD, where they are accumulated as electric charges for each pixel. The electric charges accumulated in the PD flow out through the TFT switch and signal line, where they are amplified, A/D converted, and output to the imaging control device 11 as X-ray image data.
The FPD 12 may be of the indirect conversion type described above, or may be of a direct conversion type that directly converts X-rays into electrical signals.

The imaging table 13 detachably holds the FPD 12 so that the X-ray incident surface of the FPD 12 faces the X-ray tube assembly 25. In Fig. 1, the imaging table 13 is exemplified by a standing imaging table that images a subject in a standing position.
The imaging table 13 may be a supine imaging table for imaging the subject in a supine position.
The imaging stand 13 is communicably connected to the imaging control device 11 via a repeater 14 by wired communication, for example.

The imaging control device 11 controls the X-ray imaging system 1 in cooperation with the X-ray generation control device 21. The imaging control device 11, for example, transmits and sets detection conditions to the FPD 12. The detection conditions include the image size to be captured, the frame rate (in the case of dynamic imaging), and information related to the signal processing performed by the FPD 12 (e.g., amplifier gain, etc.). The imaging control device 11 controls each operation of the FPD 12, acquires X-ray image data from the FPD 12, performs predetermined image processing, and displays the data on the display unit 113 (see Figure 2).

The imaging control device 11 may also constitute part of the X-ray generator 20. For example, the imaging control device 11 may function as the X-ray generation console 22 of the X-ray generator 20 (a so-called integrated X-ray imaging system).

The X-ray generator 20 includes an X-ray generation control device 21, an X-ray generation console 22, an exposure switch 23, a high-voltage generator 24, and an X-ray tube device 25.

The X-ray tube assembly 25 is positioned opposite the FPD 12 across the subject. When a high voltage is applied to the X-ray tube assembly 25 by the high-voltage generator 24, the X-ray tube assembly 25 generates X-rays and irradiates them toward the subject. The X-ray tube assembly 25 includes an adjustable X-ray diaphragm that adjusts the X-ray irradiation field.

The X-ray generation console 22 and the exposure switch 23 are connected to the X-ray generation control device 21 via a signal cable.
The X-ray generation console 22 is an operation console for inputting irradiation parameters, etc. The irradiation switch 23 is a switch for instructing X-ray irradiation, and is composed of, for example, a two-stage automatic reset push button switch. When the irradiation switch 23 is pressed to the first stage, a warm-up start signal for starting warm-up of the X-ray tube device 25 is sent to the X-ray generation control device 21, and when the irradiation switch 23 is pressed to the second stage, an irradiation start signal for starting X-ray irradiation from the X-ray tube device 25 is sent to the X-ray generation control device 21.

The X-ray generation control device 21 controls the operation of the high-voltage generator 24 and the X-ray tube device 25 based on irradiation parameters (radiation irradiation parameters) from the X-ray generation console 22 and control signals (warm-up start signal and irradiation start signal) from the irradiation switch 23.

Irradiation parameters can be set through the X-ray generation console 22 or using the imaging control device 11.

Figure 2 is a diagram showing the configuration of the imaging control device 11. As shown in Figure 2, the imaging control device 11 includes a processing unit 111, a memory unit 112, a display unit 113, an operation unit 114, and a communication unit 115.

The processing unit 111 includes a CPU (Central Processing Unit) as a calculation/control device, and a ROM (Read Only Memory) and RAM (Random Access Memory) as main storage devices (all not shown). Basic programs and basic setting data are stored in the ROM. The CPU reads a program corresponding to the processing content from the ROM or the storage unit 112, loads it into the RAM, and executes the loaded program to centrally control the operation of the FPD 12 and other devices. The processing unit 111 also functions as a display control unit that controls the display content of the display unit 113.

The storage unit 112 is, for example, an auxiliary storage device such as a hard disk drive (HDD) or a solid state drive (SSD). The storage unit 112 may be a disk drive that drives an optical disk such as a compact disk (CD) or a digital versatile disk (DVD), or a magneto-optical disk such as an MO (magneto-optical disk) to read and write information. Alternatively, for example, the storage unit 112 may be a memory card such as a USB memory or an SD card.
The storage unit 112 stores various programs executed by the processing unit 111, parameters required for executing the programs, and data such as processing results.

The display unit 113 is composed of a flat panel display such as a liquid crystal display or an organic EL display. The display unit 113 displays the contents of the examination order and the captured X-ray images based on a display control signal from the processing unit 111. The examination order includes patient information about the patient (e.g., patient ID, patient name, date of birth, gender), posture information at the time of imaging (e.g., posture (upright/supine position), irradiation direction (back/front/side), imaging area information (e.g., chest), examination items (pulmonary ventilation function, pulmonary blood flow, etc.), and the examination history of the subject (imaging conditions at the previous examination, etc.).

The operation unit 114 consists of a keyboard with cursor keys, numeric input keys, and various function keys, and a pointing device such as a mouse. The operation unit 114 accepts operation signals input by key operation or mouse operation and outputs them to the processing unit 111. The user can input imaging conditions, including irradiation parameters, for example, through the operation unit 114.

The display unit 113 and operation unit 114 may be configured as an integrated unit, such as a flat panel display with a touch panel.

The communication unit 115 is a communication interface such as a network interface card (NIC), a modulator-demodulator (MODEM), or a universal serial bus (USB).
The processing unit 111 transmits and receives various information in accordance with the DICOM standard to and from devices connected to a network such as a wired/wireless LAN via the communication unit 115. A communication interface for short-range wireless communication such as NFC (Near Field Communication) or Bluetooth (registered trademark) can also be applied to the communication unit 115.

When X-ray imaging is performed using the X-ray imaging system 1, an examination order is registered in the imaging control device 11. The registered examination order is displayed on the display unit 113 of the imaging control device 11. The examination order may be input from an external system such as the HIS 32 or RIS 33, or may be manually input by the user via the operation unit 114. Here, it is assumed that the examination order is input from an external system such as the HIS 32 or RIS 33.

When a command to execute a registered examination order is given, the imaging conditions included in the examination order are sent to the X-ray generation controller 21 and FPD 12 and set. The user can change and fine-tune the irradiation parameter settings through the X-ray generation console 22. When the irradiation parameter settings are changed, the X-ray generation controller 21 sends a signal indicating the setting change and the changed irradiation parameters to the imaging controller 11.

When the user presses the exposure switch 23 to the first stage, the X-ray tube device 25 begins warming up (heating the filament, etc.). Accordingly, the X-ray generation controller 21 sends a ready signal (irradiation preparation start signal) to the imaging controller 11, indicating that warming up has begun. Upon receiving the ready signal, the imaging controller 11 instructs the FPD 12 to begin imaging preparation (initialization).

When the warm-up of the X-ray tube device 25 is complete, the X-ray generation control device 21 sends a start signal (irradiation preparation complete signal) to the imaging control device 11, indicating that the warm-up is complete. In addition, the FPD 12 sends an OK signal (imaging preparation complete signal) to the imaging control device 11, indicating that imaging preparation is complete.

When the user presses the exposure switch 23 to the second stage, the X-ray generation control device 21 transmits an X-ray irradiation signal to the high-voltage generator 24 and the imaging control device 11, instructing the user to irradiate X-rays. The high-voltage generator 24 applies a high voltage to the X-ray tube device 25, and X-ray irradiation begins. Note that the exposure switch 23 may be pressed to the second stage before receiving the start signal from the X-ray generation control device 21 and the OK signal from the FPD 12. In this case, the X-ray irradiation signal is transmitted from the X-ray generation control device 21 upon receiving the start signal and the OK signal.

When an exposure time is set, as in simple X-ray imaging, X-ray irradiation ends when the specified exposure time has elapsed. In the case of dynamic imaging, X-ray irradiation continues while the exposure switch 23 is pressed to the second stage, and X-ray irradiation ends when the exposure switch 23 is released. When X-ray irradiation ends, the X-ray irradiation signal turns off, and the OK signal, start signal, and ready signal also turn off in sequence.

The captured X-ray image is transmitted from the FPD 12 to the imaging control device 11 and stored in the memory unit 112. The imaging control device 11 performs various image processing such as offset correction and gain correction on the X-ray image data, and displays it on the display unit 113.

3 is a diagram showing an example of an imaging screen D when instructing execution of an examination order, which is displayed on the display unit 113 of the imaging control device 11. The imaging screen D refers to the entire screen displayed on the display unit 113.
The imaging screen D is divided into a first area A1 in which information about the subject currently being examined (first subject) is displayed, a second area A2 in which information about the patient (second subject) who will be imaged after the first subject is displayed, a third area A3 in which examination order information for the first subject is displayed, a fourth area A4 in which X-ray images of the first subject are displayed, a fifth area A5 in which playback control and image adjustment of the X-ray images of the first subject is performed, and a sixth area A6 in which instructions are given to interrupt and end the examination of the first subject, and various types of information are displayed in each area.

Specifically, the first area A1 displays information about the first subject, such as the patient ID, patient name, sex, date of birth, requesting department, and a details button B1.
The details button B1 is a button for displaying more detailed information about the first subject. When the details button B1 is pressed, the information is displayed floating on the imaging screen D.

Specifically, the second area A2 displays information about the second subject, such as test order information (including imaging conditions), patient ID, patient name, sex, date of birth, requesting department, and details button B2. When there are multiple pieces of test order information, the imaging order (test order order) is displayed so that it can be seen (ventral recumbent position AP → ventral recumbent position lateral view).
By displaying the information about the second subject, if different technicians are checking the images and preparing for the scan (two-person operation), the radiologist can prepare for the scan of the second subject (adjust the tube, prepare the scan table) while the technician checking the images is checking the images.Even if the same technician is checking the images and scanning the images (one-person operation), the radiologist can adjust the scanning equipment while checking the images.
The details button B2 is a button for displaying more detailed information about the second subject. When the details button B2 is pressed, the information is displayed in a floating manner on the imaging screen D. The imaging screen D after pressing the details button B2 is the imaging screen D shown in Fig. 4, and detailed patient information A7 shows test order information, patient ID, patient name, sex, date of birth, age, requesting department, ward, comments, nationality, etc.

Specifically, examination order setting buttons B3 and B4 for the first subject are displayed in the third area A3.
The examination order setting buttons B3 and B4 are buttons for instructing the execution of examination orders. Specifically, the examination order setting button B3 is a button for instructing the execution of an examination order for chest standing position PA, and the examination order setting button B4 is a button for instructing the execution of an examination order for abdominal standing position PA.

Specifically, the fourth area A4 displays an X-ray image of the first subject taken based on the imaging conditions corresponding to the selected examination order.

Specifically, a playback control tab B5 and an image adjustment tab B6 are displayed in the fifth area A5.
The playback control tab B5 is a tab for controlling playback of the X-ray image displayed in the fourth area A4. In the playback control tab B5, various playback controls can be performed by selecting a start key for fast forward, rewind, frame forward, frame reverse, repeat playback, reverse playback, etc.
The image adjustment tab B6 is a tab for performing image processing of the X-ray image displayed in the fourth area A4. Fig. 5 shows the case where the image adjustment tab B6 is selected on the imaging screen D of Fig. 3. In the image adjustment tab B6, various image adjustments can be performed by selecting adjustment keys such as density adjustment, contrast adjustment, enlargement, reduction, rotation, inversion, and panning.

Specifically, an examination interruption button B7 and an examination end button B8 are displayed in the sixth area A6.
The test interruption button B7 is a button for interrupting the test of the patient currently being tested.
The examination end button B8 is a button (end key) for ending the examination of the patient currently being examined.

Furthermore, when the imaging conditions included in the examination order for the second subject are different from those of the first subject, such as the installation information of the FPD 12 and the imaging table 13, at least the imaging conditions of the second subject displayed in the second area A2 that are different from those of the first subject may be highlighted. Specifically, when the current examination order is for the standing position and the subsequent examination order is for the supine position, the second area A2 is highlighted. Examples of highlighting include blinking and changing the color.
In addition, information about the second subject may be displayed in the second area A2 only when the examination order for the second subject is different from the imaging conditions, such as the installation information of the FPD 12 and the imaging table 13, in the examination order for the first subject.
The display format of the second area A2, such as the items, character size, and color, can be changed.
Furthermore, the patient information (including the examination order) of the second subject may be acquired from the RIS 33 or the like, or may be acquired from the examination list received by the imaging control device 11 .

As described above, the imaging control device 11 is equipped with a display control unit (processing unit 111) that displays an imaging screen on the display unit (display unit 113) for capturing a radiographic image of the first subject using the radiographic imaging device. The display control unit displays the captured radiographic image of the first subject and information about the second subject who will be imaged after the first subject on the imaging screen before the examination of the first subject is completed. This allows the radiographer to prepare for imaging the next patient without waiting for the completion of confirmation and adjustment work of the previous patient, thereby further improving the operational efficiency of imaging examinations.

In addition, the display control unit displays adjustment keys on the imaging screen for adjusting the radiographic image displayed on the imaging screen, making it possible to adjust the radiographic image of the previous patient, the first subject, while preparing to image the next patient, the second subject, thereby further improving the operational efficiency of imaging examinations.

In addition, the display control unit displays a start key on the imaging screen to start playback control of the radiographic image, allowing the user to control playback of the radiographic image of the previous patient (the first subject) and check the image while preparing to capture the next patient (the second subject), further improving the operational efficiency of imaging examinations.

In addition, by including the imaging conditions in the information about the second subject, it becomes possible to prepare for imaging of the second subject (the subsequent patient) in accordance with the imaging conditions without waiting for the completion of confirmation and adjustment work of the images of the previous patient (the first subject), thereby further improving the operational efficiency of imaging examinations.

In addition, if the imaging conditions differ from those of the first subject, the display control unit highlights and displays at least those imaging conditions of the second subject that differ from those of the first subject, making it easier to visually recognize that the imaging conditions of the second subject, a subsequent patient, are different, further improving the operational efficiency of imaging examinations.

In addition, by including the imaging order in the imaging conditions, it becomes possible to prepare for imaging of the subsequent patient, who is the second subject, taking the imaging order into consideration, thereby further improving the operational efficiency of imaging examinations.

In addition, the display format of information about the second subject can be changed, making it possible to set the display format of information about the second subject to a display format suitable for operation, further improving the operational efficiency of imaging examinations.

In addition, the display control unit displays information about the second subject in a floating display, making it possible to check detailed information about the subsequent patient who is the second subject, further improving the operational efficiency of imaging examinations.

In addition, by including the subject's name (patient name) in the information about the second subject, it becomes possible to call up subsequent patients, further improving the operational efficiency of imaging examinations.

Second Embodiment
FIG. 6 is a diagram showing an X-ray imaging system 2 according to an embodiment of the present invention.
The X-ray imaging system 2 is obtained by adding a display terminal 40 to the X-ray imaging system 1 as an imaging control system. The other configurations and operations of the X-ray imaging system 2 are the same as those of the X-ray imaging system 1.

The display terminal 40 is a terminal that displays the same screen as the shooting screen D displayed on the display unit 113 of the shooting control device 11. Specifically, the display terminal may be a PDA (personal digital assistant) or a monitor.

Here, a case where another technician checks the image and prepares for imaging (two-person operation) will be described. It is assumed that the captured X-ray image is already displayed on the display unit 113. Furthermore, before the examination of the first subject is completed, the display terminal 40 displays the same screen as the imaging screen D displayed on the display unit 113 of the imaging control device 11.
The technician checking the images checks and adjusts the image of the first subject by checking the imaging screen displayed on the display unit 113 of the imaging control device 11. Meanwhile, the technician performing the imaging checks the imaging screen displayed on the display terminal 40 before the end of the examination of the first subject, without leaving the imaging room, and prepares for imaging of the second subject (tube adjustment, imaging stand preparation).
Therefore, it becomes possible for the image checking technician to check the image and the radiographing technician to prepare for radiographing in parallel.

The screen displayed on the display terminal 40 does not necessarily have to be the same as the imaging screen D displayed on the display unit 113 of the imaging control device 11. Only the first area A1 and the second area A2, which contain information necessary for the technician preparing for imaging, may be displayed on the display terminal 40.

Furthermore, the connection between the display terminal 40 and the imaging control device 11 may be wired or wireless. Furthermore, the connected display terminal 40 may also be considered to be part of the imaging control device 11.

As described above, the imaging control system (X-ray imaging system 2) includes a display terminal (display terminal 40) and an imaging control device 11 that controls the capture of radiographic images of the subject using the radiation imaging device (X-ray imaging device 10). The imaging control device includes a display unit and a display control unit that displays an imaging screen on the display unit for capturing a radiographic image of the first subject using the radiation imaging device. The display control unit displays the captured radiographic image of the first subject on the imaging screen of the display unit. The display terminal displays at least information about the second subject, who will be imaged after the first subject, before the examination of the first subject is completed. This allows one radiographer to prepare for the next patient, the second subject, without waiting for the other radiographer to confirm and adjust the image of the previous patient, the first subject, thereby further improving the operational efficiency of imaging examinations.

Although embodiments of the present invention have been described, the scope of the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, but includes the scope of the invention set forth in the claims and their equivalents.

For example, the second subject is a patient who will be imaged after the first subject, and is not limited to a patient who will be imaged after the first subject. More specifically, if the next patient to be imaged has the same imaging conditions as the first subject, there is no need to prepare for imaging, so the patient who requires imaging preparation may be skipped and designated as the second subject.
Furthermore, examination order information (such as body part, imaging conditions such as standing/supine position/cassette, etc.) and patient information (such as gender) may be displayed using icons. In other words, by displaying imaging conditions and the like using icons, the display control unit can make it easier to visually confirm the imaging conditions of the patient later, thereby further improving the operational efficiency of the image examination. Specifically, the standing position and supine position may be displayed using icons, as in the second area A2 of the imaging screen D shown in FIG. 7.
Furthermore, the icons for the examination order information and the patient information are not limited to simple marks, but may be marks having some function, such as icons that, when clicked, display detailed information about the examination order information and the patient information (such as setting information for imaging conditions) in a floating state.
The adjustment keys, start keys, and end keys include not only buttons but also bars and the like.
