Background Personal health checking system (Ningen Dock) is now being popular in Japan. With increase of examinees (clients), arrangement of examination procedures is becoming difficult. As a large quantity of examination data are produced in every client, it spends time in making individual personal medical records correctly and promptly.
Methods To solve this difficulties, Sophia Health Improvement Center (Sophia) constructed digital personal health checking system (Ningen Dock) applied of computer information network system since 1999.
Results Twenty-six thousand eight hundred fifty-six Ningen Dock clients were examined by this system in last 7 years. The images were directly transmitted to Sophia from radiology without using medical Xray film (filmless). The radiologist interpreted them on a high-resolution cathode ray tube (CRT) of Digital Imaging and Communication in Medicine (DICOM) by using personal computer (paperless) and explained them to the client. Examination results including all medical imaging data of each client were recorded on compact disk recordable (CD-R) which was sent to client's home afterwards. The recorded CDR was evaluated to be useful for health improvement of client. Furthermore, gastric virtual endoscopy (VE) processed from CT images was successively developed by using the digital imaging system. Its diagnostic abilities were obtained sensitivity of 92.7% and specificity of 90.9% by comparison with real gastric fiberscopy (GF). This non-invasive method was applied to 1949 cases of Ningen Dock in last 5years, in which 3 cases of gastric cancer were detected in early stage.
Conclusion Digital health checking system was successfully developed by using medical information systern.
