Assignment of measurement data to information data

摘要

A method is disclosed for assigning measurement data of a body of a patient to information data related to the same body. The method includes providing annotated measurement data, providing annotated information data, translating the first group of annotations into a first group of universal annotations and the second group of annotations into a second group of universal medical annotations in a universal annotation ontology management system, comparing the universal annotations of the first group of universal annotations with the universal annotations of the second group of universal annotations, and assigning the universal annotations to each other. An assignment system and a universal annotation ontology management system are also disclosed.

1. A method of assigning measurement data of a body of a patient, the measurement data having been accumulated by a first medical imaging system, to information data related to the body or vice versa, the method comprising:
a) providing annotated measurement data to a number of measurement data regions of an image acquired by the first medical imaging system, the annotated measurement data having a first medical knowledge ontology, at least one measurement data finding including at least one first assessment of one of the measurement data regions that is annotated in each of the measurement data regions, such that the measurement data regions together with the respective assigned measurement data findings form a first group of annotations, each of the measurement data findings representing a parameter value related to the corresponding measurement data region to which it is annotated; b) providing annotated information data to a number of information data regions associated with the image, the annotated information data having a second medical knowledge ontology, at least one information data finding of the information data regions including at least one second assessment of the one of the measurement data regions that is annotated in each of the information data regions, such that the information data regions together with respective assigned information data findings form a second group of annotations, each of the information data findings representing a parameter value related to the corresponding information data region to which it is annotated; c) translating the first group of annotations into a first group of universal annotations and the second group of annotations into a second group of universal medical annotations in a universal annotation ontology management system such that all universal annotations of the first group of annotations have the same ontological basis as all universal annotations of the second group of annotations; d) comparing the first group of universal annotations with the second group of universal annotations; e) determining, based on the comparing, an intersection of parameter values between parameter values of the measurement data findings and parameter values of the information data findings; f) outputting the determined parameter values to visually link the information data regions to the measurement data regions on the image; and g) concurrently displaying the visually linked information data regions and measurement data regions on the image.
