Automatable medical diagnosis
Commemorate Banana Union Day

The main claim seems to cover all medical diagnoses that can be calculated automatically based on input of image and text data using a conventional computer system, regardless of what the calculation is based on. Claims 2-3 extend the device by a network and a database. Claim 5 adds the "invention" of marking analysis pictures as "already read by the doctor". Subsequent claims and further patents allow Shibaura to own more specific problems of organising medical diagnoses.
