Abstract:
1. A medical image processing system comprising a plurality of servers each having an image processing circuit, wherein the servers execute in parallel a plurality of image processes on image data, the medical image processing system comprising: a reservation manager circuit configured to receive information of a reservation for image processing, and to manage a process commencement time and a process termination time of the image processing and a volume of the image data to be processed by the image processing, based on the information of the reservation, a throughput calculating circuit configured to calculate a throughput to be processed per predetermined time period for the image processing based on the volume of the image data, the process commencement time, and the process termination time, for a first server from among the plurality of servers, an analyzing circuit configured to calculate, prior to obtaining the image data, a throughput total of image processing to be carried out in parallel on the first server for respective time periods, based on the volume of the image data, the process commencement time, and the process termination time of the image processing, and to specify, from among all image processes to be carried out by the first server, a first image process to not be performed by the first server so that the throughput total of the first server during each of the respective time periods becomes less than a predetermined throughput, when the calculated throughput total exceeds the predetermined throughput, and a request circuit configured to assign the first image process to a second server different from the first server.
