Patent Searching and Data


Title:
医療診断システムのサービスの接続性検証方法および装置
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP5331279
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
A technique is provided for verifying network connectivity between a medical diagnostic system (12, 14, 16, 18, 22, 24 26) and a remote service facility (20). The remote service facility (20) is contactable at will by the subscribing system to request service, information, technical assistance, and so forth, while the service facility may also contact the subscribing system for acquisition of data, transmission of service messages, protocols, and so forth. In the connectivity verification sequence, a subscribing system (12, 14, 16, 18, 22, 24, 26) is selected by the service facility and a network connection (44) is established. A message is transmitted to the system provoking software at the system to re-establish the network connection from the system side. Two-way connectivity is thereby verified. Mobile systems (16, 18) may be configured to contact the service facility at their own initiation, and exchange data for permitting the service facility to re-contact the mobile system. Failure modes may be identified at various locations in the connectivity network by identification of steps in the connectivity verification process where the process failed. Alerts or other action items may be generated as a result of detected connectivity problems.
