ENDOSCOPY SUPPORT APPARATUS, ENDOSCOPY SUPPORT METHOD, AND COMPUTER READABLE RECORDING MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18748511 titled 'ENDOSCOPY SUPPORT APPARATUS, ENDOSCOPY SUPPORT METHOD, AND COMPUTER READABLE RECORDING MEDIUM

The abstract describes an endoscopy support apparatus that includes various units for generating analysis information, user information, image-related information, and examination management information.

  • Analysis information generation unit inputs image information of a living body, estimates a region of a target site, and generates analysis information including region information and score information.
  • User information generation unit generates user information related to the user using a user interface.
  • Image-related information generation unit associates imaging date and time information, analysis information, and user information for each piece of image information.
  • Examination management information generation unit associates image-related information with examination information indicating an examination period.

Potential Applications: - Medical imaging technology - Endoscopy procedures - Healthcare data management

Problems Solved: - Efficient analysis of endoscopy images - Streamlining examination management processes - Enhancing user experience in medical imaging

Benefits: - Improved accuracy in identifying target sites - Enhanced user interface for inputting information - Comprehensive examination management system

Commercial Applications: Title: "Endoscopy Support Apparatus for Enhanced Medical Imaging" This technology can be used in hospitals, clinics, and medical imaging centers to improve the efficiency and accuracy of endoscopy procedures. It can also be integrated into healthcare data management systems for better patient care.

Questions about Endoscopy Support Apparatus: 1. How does the apparatus improve the analysis of endoscopy images?

  - The apparatus utilizes advanced algorithms to estimate target sites and generate analysis information for accurate diagnosis.

2. What are the key features of the user interface in this technology?

  - The user interface allows users to input information easily and efficiently, enhancing the overall user experience.


Original Abstract Submitted

An endoscopy support apparatus includes: an analysis information generation unit that inputs image information of an imaged living body into a model, estimates a region of a target site of the living body, and generates analysis information including region information indicating the estimated region and score information indicating likeness of the region to the target site; a user information generation unit that generates user information related to the user, which has been input by a user using a user interface ; an image-related information generation unit that generates image-related information by associating imaging date and time information, the analysis information, and the user information, for each piece of image information; and an examination management information generation unit that generates examination management information by associating a plurality of pieces of the image-related information with examination information indicating an examination period.
