Systems and methods for image handling and presentation

摘要

Certain embodiments provide systems and methods for adaptive compression, transmission, and display of clinical images. Certain embodiments provide a method for adaptive compression of image data for transmission and display at a client workstation. The method includes identifying one or more images for display, the one or more images including a plurality of image slices. The method also includes determining a compression scheme for the one or more images based on at least one of bandwidth, processing power, and diagnostic modality. The method further includes transferring the one or more images for display at the client workstation. The method additionally includes adapting the compression scheme based on resource availability.

1. A method comprising:
identifying, using a processor, a plurality of image slices in a study stored at a source for transmission and display via a client; generating a list of media files including the plurality of image slices and associated layout information for display of the study via the client; building a plan, according to the generated list of media files and associated layout information, to transfer the media files to the client workstation for display according to a compression and decompression scheme, the plan coordinated between the source and the client and including a coarse representation of the study to facilitate navigation between the image slices followed by the media files representing the plurality of image slices; facilitating transfer, using the processor, of the coarse representation and the list of media files to the client according to the plan; and adapting, using the processor, the plan based on resource availability.
