INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE, DISPLAY METHOD, AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER-READABLE MEDIUM FOR STORING PROGRAM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240119727 titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE, DISPLAY METHOD, AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER-READABLE MEDIUM FOR STORING PROGRAM

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes an information processing device that can display capturing times of lesion images acquired during endoscopic examinations.

  • First acquisition unit acquires capturing time of lesion image saved by user
  • Second acquisition unit acquires capturing time of lesion image detected by detection processing
  • Display control unit displays first and second capturing times on a time axis

Potential Applications

This technology can be applied in the field of medical imaging and endoscopy to improve the visualization and analysis of lesion images during examinations.

Problems Solved

1. Improved organization and comparison of lesion images captured during endoscopic examinations 2. Enhanced efficiency in identifying and tracking changes in lesions over time

Benefits

1. Enhanced accuracy in diagnosing and monitoring lesions 2. Streamlined workflow for healthcare professionals during endoscopic procedures

Potential Commercial Applications

Optimized for medical institutions, healthcare facilities, and endoscopy clinics to improve patient care and diagnostic accuracy.

Possible Prior Art

There may be prior art related to image processing and display technologies in the field of medical imaging and endoscopy, but specific examples are not provided in this context.

Unanswered Questions

How does the device differentiate between lesion images and other images captured during endoscopic examinations?

The patent application does not specify the method used to distinguish lesion images from other images captured by the endoscope.

What types of endoscopes are compatible with this information processing device?

The patent application does not mention the compatibility of the device with specific types or models of endoscopes.


Original Abstract Submitted

an information processing device includes: a first acquisition unit configured to acquire a capturing time of a lesion image instructed to be saved by a user, from a series of images captured by an endoscope during examination with the endoscope; a second acquisition unit configured to acquire a capturing time of a lesion image detected by detection processing for the series of images captured by the endoscope during the examination; and a display control unit configured to cause a display device to display a first capturing time and a second capturing time which are plotted on a time axis, the first capturing time being the capturing time acquired by the first acquisition unit, the second capturing time being the capturing time acquired by the second acquisition unit.
