PURPOSE:To shorten the retrieval time of image data by storing a retrieval table for individual in an external storage medium, connecting the external storage medium to an image processing device at the time of retrieving an image, and retrieving the image by using the retrieval table for individual. CONSTITUTION:The retrieval table, for example, the retrieval table dedicated for a specific patient can be obtained by generating the retrieval table for individual by extracting specific identification information from the retrieval table in which identification information to retrieve the image data is registered. And the retrieval table for individual is stored in the external storage medium 17. Next, in case of retrieving the image of a specific patient, a desired image can be read out by retrieving a required image file dedicated for the specific patient without retrieving an unnecessary image file by loading the external storage medium 17 on the image processing device 3 and inputting the retrieval table for individual. In such a way, it is possible to retrieve desired image data in a short period. |
