Layered medical image forming, receiving, and transmitting methods

摘要

A layered medical image forming method includes a layered medical image forming step of layering first to n-th value of interest look-up table (VOI LUT)-applied medical images (where n is a natural number), which are obtained by applying first to n-th VOI LUTs included in variation information of the original of a medical image to the original of the medical image so as to allow another system to display the same variation information.

1. A layered medical image forming method by an image managing unit performing a storage and cache function, the method comprising:
a layered medical image forming step of layering first to n-th value of interest look-up table (VOI LUT)-applied medical images (where n is a natural number), which are obtained by applying first to n-th VOI LUTs included in variation information of the original of a medical image to the original of the medical image so as to allow another system to display the same variation information, wherein the variation information is included in a header of the original of the medical image when the variation information includes VOI LUT information but does not include one or more of rotation information, zoom information, pan and scroll information, annotation information, and shutter information, and the variation information is included in a gray scale softcopy presentation state (GSPS) file when the variation information includes the VOI LUT information along with one or more of the rotation information, the zoom information, the pan and scroll information, the annotation information, and the shutter information.
