Abstract:
An image processing apparatus includes: a blood vessel sharpness calculation unit configured to calculate blood vessel sharpness representing sharpness of a visible vascular pattern in a mucosa region in which a mucosa in a lumen is shown in an intraluminal image; an abnormal candidate region extraction unit configured to extract a sharpness reduction region in which the blood vessel sharpness is reduced, as a candidate region for an abnormal region in which the visible vascular pattern is locally lost; and an abnormal region determination unit configured to determine whether the candidate region is the abnormal region based on a shape of the candidate region.
Abstract:
An image processing apparatus processes an image obtained by capturing inside of a lumen of a living body. The image processing apparatus includes: a contour edge region extracting unit configured to extract a contour edge region of an examination target from the image; an examination region setting unit configured to set an examination region in the image so as not to include the contour edge region; and an abnormal structure identifying unit configured to identify whether a microstructure of a surface of the examination target is abnormal, based on texture information of the examination region.

Abstract:
An image processing apparatus includes: an abnormality candidate region identifying unit configured to identify a candidate region for an abnormality from an image obtained by imaging inside of a lumen of a living body; a surrounding region determining unit configured to determine a surrounding region surrounding the candidate region; a shape information calculating unit configured to calculate shape information of the candidate region and shape information of the surrounding region in a depth direction with respect to a screen; and an abnormality region determining unit configured to determine whether or not the candidate region is an abnormality, based on a correlation between the shape information of the candidate region and the shape information of the surrounding region.
Abstract:
A diagnosis support system includes a processor. The processor is connected to a plurality of classifiers that are different in performance. The processor displays performance information of each of the classifiers side by side, receives a user's selection of the performance information displayed side by side, and inputs an input image to the classifier associated with the performance information selected by the user.
Abstract:
A diagnosis assisting apparatus includes a processor configured to: detect at least one target region from an acquired image and output position information of the target region; classify the target region based on predetermined classification conditions corresponding to diagnosis indices and output diagnosis assisting information indicating a degree of seriousness of the target region; and control a display image such that a first period, during which the diagnosis assisting information is displayed in a first region, is different from a second period, during which the position information is superimposed on the image in a second region and is displayed.
