DESCRIPTION:
BRIEF SUMMARY
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The invention relates to a device for the integration of diagnostic image-generating and data processing devices into EDP systems, by means of which it is possible to make video, audio and text data recordings and transmissions and to print, file and analyze data.
A invention is disclosed in patent publication DE-OS 35 33 446, whereby a medical video archive was created, by means of which it is easily and rapidly possible to study reference images and also clinical images. In addition, there is a device in which the required data can be stored, and a further device for inputting retrieved data in accordance with the desired reference image and clinical image is provided. A device for the retrieval of at least one image from the stored images, as well as for controlling the memory device, the input device, the retrieval device and the display device in such a way that one or several reference images and clinical images are retrieved from the reference images and clinical images stored in the memory device, so that the retrieved reference images and clinical images are displayed is provided.
A picture archive is represented in patent publication DE-OS 35 33 466, wherein a reproducing method for reproducing an already recorded picture and a first recording method for recording video signals is provided, while the picture provided by the picture recording device is continuously displayed on a display unit, a second recording device is provided wherein immediately following the recording of a video signal on a video plate the just recorded video signal is automatically read and is played on the display unit for a predetermined length of time. Then the just recorded picture is displayed on the display unit in order to start the recording process of the next picture. This makes it possible to determine easily and rapidly whether or not the recorded picture was correctly recorded.
A storage system for images from the medical field is furthermore known from German Published Patent Application DE-OS 35 34 065, which comprises a video data memory section, a video input and output section for the input/output of the video data, a retrieval section for storing the video data in the memory section and for retrieving them from it on the basis of retrieval data, a retrieval data input section for the input of the retrieval data into the retrieval section and a retrieval data section for storing the retrieval data, wherein the retrieval data are classified by means of an information block obtained during individual examination.
If images from the medical field are stored, retrieval data which have been collected for each examination are used for reducing the amount of retrieval data, while during reproduction the retrieval is performed for each individual examination, because of which the time required for retrieval is reduced.
All above-mentioned solutions have the disadvantage that they are not designed for multi-media. Video, audio and text signals are not capable of being integrated. The simultaneous digital display of the data next to an analog display is also not provided. These above-mentioned systems also have the disadvantage that they do not integrate heterogeneous systems, i.e. the doctor is not placed in a position where he can collect the various signals and is not offered the option by means of the hardware to transfer them to the digital system.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
To remove the above-mentioned disadvantages of the prior art, it is the object of the invention to develop a device for the integration of diagnostic image-generating and data processing devices for EDP systems, which integrates a heterogeneous system, contains a system designed for multi-media and wherein video, audio and text signals are capable of being integrated.
According to the invention, the device for integration of diagnostic image-generating and data processing devices into an EDP system comprises a digital integration system including means for connection to one or more image-providing examination s
