Abstract

A system configures a medical imaging system using utilization information. The system includes at least one repository storing records indicating usage and an associated time of usage, of particular features of a medical imaging system. A processor coupled to the at least one repository analyzes the records to determine, (a) frequency of usage of particular features of the medical imaging system and (b) a sequence of usage of the particular features of the medical imaging system and provide utilization data, by identifying in the records particular text strings using predetermined information associating predetermined text strings with corresponding features. An adaptation processor uses the utilization data to modify, delete or add a task to a task sequence employing the particular features. A display processor generates data representing at least one display image enabling a user to perform an adapted task sequence.
