Internet Based Control Survey for the Morphological Laboratory Tests

1.将尿检、血液学、微生物学、免疫学、生理学和病理学的典型标本的图像数字化，并使用包括超高分辨率(QSXGA，200像素/英寸)LCD在内的各种显示设备评估诊断的可靠性。经过适当处理的大多数数字化图片的质量几乎与幻灯片相同，但其中一些需要用QSXGA显示器观察才能保持所需的质量。此外，显示器之间的颜色再现存在很大的差异，这可能附带地导致错误的诊断。为了解决这一问题，基于一种新的思维方式开发了一种新的校准系统。基于这一概念的两项发明正在等待专利保护。为了讨论在其他医学领域可能出现的同样问题，1999年5月8-9日在东京医科大学举行了第一届医学数字成像的颜色研讨会，对这一问题的理解和解决方向的共识都得到了很好的推进。此外，在我们课题组的倡议下，将成立一个专注于这一研究领域的新的学术团体。(详细信息，请参考http://biocolor.umin.ac.jp/).6.的主页将尿检、血液学、微生物学、免疫学、细胞学、染色体分析和生理学的典型标本图片、寄生虫学和超声影像资料数字化，并通过第三次形态实验室测试的网络调查评估诊断的可靠性。这些结果在各种日语或国际学术会议或用日语或英语撰写的各种学术期刊上以及主页(http://survey.umin.ac.jp/).)上公布

1. Pictures of typical specimens from urinary tests, hematology, microbiology, immunology, physiology and pathology were digitized and the diagnostic reliability were evaluated using various display equipment including extra high resolution (QSXGA, 200 pixel per inch) LCD.2. The qualities of most of digitized pictures properly prepared are almost the same as slidefilms, but some of them required to be observed with the QSXGA display to maintain required qualities.3. Besides, there are large variations in reproduction of color among the displays, which may incidentally cause erroneous diagnoses.4. To overcome this problem, a new calibration system based on a novel way of thinking has been developed. Two inventions based on this concept are pending to protect patents.5. To discuss the same problem possibly arising in other medical fields, the 1st Symposium of the 'Color' of Digital Imaging in Medicine was held on 8th-9th May, 1999 at Tokyo Medical and Dental University, and understanding about this problem and a consensus of the orientation toward its solution were well advanced. Besides a new academic society focused on this research area will be founded under the initiative of our research group. (in detail, consult a home page at http://biocolor.umin.ac.jp/).6. Pictures of typical specimens from urinalysis, hematology, microbiology, immunology, cytology, chromosome analysis and physiology, and video movies of parasitology and ultrasonography were digitized and the diagnostic reliability were evaluated through the 3rd internet survey of morphological laboratory tests.7. These results are announced at various Japanese or international academic conferences or various academic journals written in Japanese or English, as well as the home page (http://survey.umin.ac.jp/).
