  • 我國產業政策是將醫療影像列為重點發展項目之一,所謂醫學影像係指為醫療行為或醫學研究,對人體構造或局部器官,以非侵入方式取得內部組織影像的技術,其中包括超音波掃描器、數位X光機、磁振造影儀等高階醫療器材。再者醫學影像約為705億,占全球醫療器材市場的25.8%,而且美國為全球最大醫療器材市場的國家。
    然而,經由我國海關進出口的統計,高階醫療器材大多倚賴國外進口,我國僅有超音波掃描器具持續且穩定輸出至新興國家。其次根據我國核准專利件數統計,專利權人多為學校或研發機構,而且除了國際醫學器材廠商皆未向我國申請醫學影像專利,國內醫學器材廠商也沒有申請專利,顯示醫學影像的技術門檻高以及我國研究成果尚未銜接國內企業與競爭市場。
    本研究先探討美國與我國醫學影像之可專利標的,藉鏡美國專利局的審查制度與法院見解,以供我國智慧財產局與智慧財產法院參考。其次提出本體論的方法,用以篩選專有名詞並建立醫學影像的本體論;專利檢索策略與布局方法。最後藉由醫學影像之本體論檢索美國與臺灣核准專利件數以及結合專利分類號製作專利地圖,分析醫學影像技術的研發趨勢。


    The medical imaging technology is one of the core developing industries that is being promoted by the Taiwan government. The medical imaging is to acquire useful information about the physiological processes or organs of the body by using non invasive methodologies, such as ultrasound, X-ray, magnetic resonance imaging, and other high-level medical imaging devices. In addition, a survey conducted by the government-backed Industrial Technology Research Institute indicates that the market for high-level medical imaging devices is worth US$70.5 billion, accounting for 25.8% of total global sales of medical equipment; the United States is the biggest market research companies around the world.
    Based on the trade statistics conducted by the Taiwan Customs Bureau, except ultrasonic apparatus, made in Taiwan and exported to the emerging countries steadily, however, most of high-level medical imaging devices are imported from the United States and European. Moreover, according to the number of issued patents stated by Taiwan Intellectual Property Office, most of assignee is school or research institutes. In Taiwan, neither international nor domestic medical device companies did file patent application that indicates the high hurdle or high entrance barrier technique of medical imaging and the gap among research results, domestic medical device companies and competitive market.
    The primary purpose of this research is to investigate patentable subject matter of the medical imaging in the United States and Taiwan, by referring to the opinions of the Supreme Court of the United States and the Manual of Patent Examining Procedure of the US Patent and Trademark Office, so as to suggest Taiwan Intellectual Property Courts and Taiwan Intellectual Property Office. The secondary objective of this research is to effectively extract domain-specific patents using an ontology, which contains specific domain concepts and helps researchers to understand the relationships between concepts, and create domain-specific ontologies of medical imaging, in order to gain a quick snapshot of their own patent portfolio and identify potential technology clusters. Finally, the methodologies in this research search the issued patents from the US Patent and Trademark Office to Taiwan Intellectual Property Office through the domain-specific ontology of medical imaging, and build up a patent map with the domain-specific ontology f medical imaging and the patent code for future trend in medical imaging technology.
