今天在计算机辅助放射学领域中可以观察到几个问题。放射科的几乎所有应用都需要自己的计算机:控制台计算机是操作成像设备所必需的。观察站用于报告或进一步分析图像数据。放射科信息系统RIS的终端用于管理和组织患者信息流。其他个人计算机用于文字处理(例如报告、出版物)。用于远程放射学的新计算机正在进入放射科。新的医学图像分析应用程序的开发人员面临的问题是,当前的计算机应用程序(例如,查看站)不够开放。每个开发人员都必须关心与模态或查看站的连接、文件格式、文件在磁盘或数据库系统中的数据存储以及在8位屏幕上显示12位图像。为放射科医生开发一种新方法意味着在解决真实的问题之前要第二次或第三次发明许多轮子。大多数现有观测站的制造商不允许安装额外的软件。通常,客户不会获得系统的root密码。因此,必须引入具有不同用户界面和与世界其他地方的附加界面的附加计算机,以向用户提供新功能。所描述的问题的结果是,开发人员需要大量的努力来实现和引入新的方法,并且对于最终用户来说成本高昂。本文介绍了如何(远程)放射工作站辣椒避免了一些这样的问题。
Several problems can be observed today in the field of computer assisted radiology. Nearly every application in the radiology department needs it’s own computer: Console computers are necessary to operate the imaging modalities. Viewing stations are used for reporting or further analysis of the image data. Terminals of the radiology informations system RIS are used to manage and organize the patient information flow. Additional personal computers are used for word processing (e.g. reports, publications). New computers for teleradiology are now entering the radiology department. Developers of new medial image analysis applications have the problem, that the current computer applications (e.g. viewing stations) are not open enough. Every developer has to care about the connection to the modality or viewing station, file formats, data storage of files on the disk or in a data base system, and the display of 12-bit images on 8-bit screens. Developing a new method for the radiologist means to invent many wheels a second or third time before the real problems can be addressed. Most of the manufacturers of the existing viewing stations do not allow the installation of additional software. Usually, the customers do not get the root password of the systems. An additional computer with different user interfaces and additional interfaces to the rest of the world has to be introduced therefore to get the new functionality to the users. The result of the depicted problems is that it needs a lot of effort for developers to implement and introduce new methods and that it is costly for the end user. This paper describes how the (tele-) radiology workstation CHILI avoids a number of this problems.
