Medical image processing apparatus, medical image processing method, and program

A medical image processing apparatus which decides assigned doctors so as to allow a plurality of doctors to share in interpreting a plurality of medical images obtained by imaging an object using a medical imaging apparatus, comprising:na processor, anda memory storing instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the apparatus to:nanalyze a medical image, of the plurality of medical images, which serves as an assignment;output an analysis result;acquire information associated with a medical imaging apparatus used to obtain the medical image as the assignment target;register information representing an aptitude of each doctor with respect to interpretation of a specific lesion and information representing an aptitude of each doctor with respect to interpretation of a medical image obtained by imaging by a specific medical imaging apparatus;when the analysis result includes information associated with a lesion, decide an assigned doctor for the medical image as the assignment target based on information which is registered and represents an aptitude of each doctor with respect to interpretation of a specific lesion; andwhen the analysis result includes no information associated with a lesion, decide an assigned doctor for the medical image as the assignment target based on information which is registered and represents an aptitude of each doctor with respect to interpretation of a medical image obtained by imaging by a specific medical imaging apparatus.

A medical image processing method in a medical image processing apparatus which decides assigned doctors so as to allow a plurality of doctors to share in interpreting a plurality of medical images obtained by imaging an object using a medical imaging apparatus, comprising:nanalyzing, by a processor, a medical image, of the plurality of medical images, which serves as an assignment target;outputting, by the processor, an analysis result;acquiring, by the processor, information associated with a medical imaging apparatus used to obtain the medical image as the assignment target;registering, by the processor, information representing an aptitude of each doctor with respect to interpretation of a specific lesion and information representing an aptitude of each doctor with respect to interpretation of a medical image obtained by imaging by a specific medical imaging apparatus;when the analysis result includes information associated with a lesion, deciding, by the processor, an assigned doctor for the medical image as the assignment target based on information which is registered and represents an aptitude of each doctor with respect to interpretation of a specific lesion; andwhen the analysis result includes no information associated with a lesion, deciding, by the processor, an assigned doctor for the medical image as the assignment target based on information which is registered and represents an aptitude of each doctor with respect to interpretation of a medical image obtained by imaging by a specific medical imaging apparatus.
