    摘要: The present invention provides a technique of matching observation angles in an imaging apparatus for diagnosis that can generate respective tomographic images by using a plurality of transmitting and receiving units. Therefore, the probe is configured to be detachably attached to a rotary junction unit of the imaging apparatus for diagnosis, and is inserted into a body lumen. Here, the probe includes a plurality of transmitting and receiving units that obtain tomographic images by transmitting and receiving signals inside the body lumen and a drive shaft that receives a rotary-drive force from the rotary junction unit and rotates the plurality of transmitting and receiving units. Then, the plurality of transmitting and receiving units are respectively disposed along axial directions by adjusting angles with respect to directions orthogonal to the axial directions so that the signals are transmitted in directions identical to the directions orthogonal to the axial directions of the rotation among directions to a distal side of the probe and a proximal side of the probe.

    摘要: In an optical imaging apparatus for diagnosis, there is generated a closed curve which precisely reproduces the shape of the indwelled stent and the shape of the inner wall of the biological tissue at the indwelling position of the stent. An optical imaging apparatus for diagnosis relating to the present invention is characterized by including: an analysis means for analyzing intensity change in transmission direction of the light from the transmission and reception unit for every one of the respective line data; a detection means, based on the analysis result, for detecting pixel data expressing stent position in the transmission direction; a labeling means for labeling each pixel data expressing the detected stent position; an elimination means for eliminating, within the respective labeling groups applied with the same labels by the labeling means, labeling groups in each of which the number of pixel data in the circumferential direction is a predetermined value or less; a calculation means for calculating center position with regard to each labeling group which was not eliminated; and a generation means for generating a stent closed-curve by using the center position of the each labeling group, which was calculated.
