ABSTRACT:
A medical information processing system for supporting diagnosis, capable of displaying an original image and a minified image over the original image without being interfered to each other, capable of optimal man-power & time saving configurations and methods, capable of realizing an optimal classifying technique for doctor's interpretation and CAD-processed result, and capable of optimizing efficiency in forming accurate interpretation report by using PACS in a mass survey. The system includes: a detecting unit for detecting location of abnormality from a first medical image in accordance with a predetermined algorithm; an image forming unit for forming a second medical image in which a marker indicating the location of the abnormality is overlapped; and a display unit for displaying the first medical image and the second medical image in an optimally efficient way.
