Abstract:
An X-ray imaging apparatus is provided. The X-ray imaging apparatus includes an X-ray source configured for irradiating X-rays to a subject; a filtering unit configured for controlling a dose of X-rays irradiated to the subject; and a processor configured for distinguishing and setting up an uninterested region in an X-ray image obtained based in the irradiated X-rays, and for controlling the filtering unit to set a dose of X-rays irradiated into the uninterested region.
Abstract:
A radiography apparatus and a method for controlling the radiography apparatus are provided. The radiography apparatus includes a radiographer configured to acquire a first radiation image of a subject before a contrast reagent is injected into the subject, and acquire a second radiation image of the subject after the contrast reagent is injected into the subject. The radiography apparatus further includes an image processor configured to calculate a difference between data of a pixel of the first radiation image and data of a pixel of the second radiation image, for each of pixels of the first radiation image, and acquire an image of the subject based the difference for each of the pixels of the first radiation image.
Abstract:
An X-ray apparatus includes an X-ray source configured to radiate X-rays onto an object, an X-ray detector configured to detect X-rays having penetrated through the object among the radiated X-rays and obtain pieces of raw data of different energy bands based on the detected X-rays, a raw image obtainer configured to obtain raw images in which different materials constituting the object are enhanced using the pieces of raw data, and an image processor configured to process the raw images and generate an X-ray image of the object based on the processed raw images.
Abstract:
An X-ray imaging apparatus includes an image separator configured to extract a first tissue image having a small amount of motion of a tissue, the small amount of motion being smaller than a threshold amount of motion, and to extract a second tissue image with a large amount of motion of a tissue, the large amount of motion being larger than the small amount of motion, from a plurality of image frames, and an image processor configured to correct the second tissue image according to the large amount of motion of the tissue.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are an X-ray imaging apparatus for providing information about accurate breast density, and a control method of the X-ray imaging apparatus. The X-ray imaging apparatus includes a reconstructing unit configured to reconstruct volumes relating to an object from an X-ray image of the object, a first reference image of the object generated based on the object being of only adipose tissue, and a second reference image of the object generated based on the object being of only fibroglandular tissue, and a density calculator configured to calculate a density of the object that is a ratio of fibroglandular tissue of the object with respect to entire tissue of the object using the reconstructed volumes of the object.
Abstract:
A display apparatus is provided to display a plurality of different images with different characteristics of an object on a single screen while gradually and mutually converting the color images and an image display method using the same. The display apparatus includes a memory to store a plurality of color images with different characteristics of an object and a display unit to display a second color image while gradually converting a first color image displayed on the display unit into the second color image, the second color image having a different characteristic from that of the first color image.
Abstract:
An imaging method includes calculating a derivative back projection (DBP) result value using a DBP method with respect to a projection image of a field of view (FOV) inside an object, and reconstructing an image of the FOV by applying a regulation function to the FOV while reconstructing the image of the FOV using the DBP result value.
Abstract:
An X-ray imaging apparatus includes an X-ray source configured to radiate X-rays to a region of a subject, an X-ray detector configured to acquire a plurality of frame images related to the region of the subject by detecting the radiated X-rays, a filter configured to filter the X-rays radiated from the X-ray source, an image processor configured to set a region of interest within the region of the subject based on the plurality of frame images, and a controller configured to control the filter so that X-rays of a lower dose than a dose of X-rays made incident on the region of interest are made incident on a region of non-interest within the region of the subject, and control the X-ray detector so that a gain of the X-ray detector in the region of non-interest is greater than that in the region of interest.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are a display apparatus which facilitates a simultaneous comparison of a plurality of images which respectively illustrate different features on one divided display screen such that the images are seamlessly displayed on the screen, and an image display method which is performable by using the apparatus. The display apparatus includes a memory configured to store a plurality of different types of images of an object, an input device configured to receive an input of a command relating to simultaneously displaying the different types of images, and a display device configured to display images. Upon receiving the command, the display device divides a screen upon which an image of the object is displayable into a first region within which a first image showing one portion of the object is displayed and a second region within which a second image showing the remaining portion of the object is displayed.
