Abstract:
An apparatus and method for acquiring an optimal MEX image may include an X-ray source to generate an X-ray and to irradiate the X-ray, an energy identification detector to acquire a MEX image that is generated when the irradiated X-ray penetrates an object, and an optimal MEX processor to generate an optimal MEX parameter based on a characteristic of the object and to control at least one of the X-ray source and the energy identification detector based on the generated optimal MEX parameter.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for estimating object information is provided. The object information estimating apparatus includes a database which stores phantom information obtained by projecting a first energy X-ray on a phantom, an input unit which receives first object information obtained by projecting the first energy X-ray on an analysis object, and which receives information on a thickness of the analysis object, and an estimating unit which estimates second object information based on the phantom information, the first object information, and the information on the thickness.
Abstract:
The X-ray imaging apparatus includes an X-ray generator to generate and emit X-rays, an X-ray detector to detect the emitted X-rays and acquire X-ray data, and a controller to convert the X-ray data into X-ray characteristic coordinates and estimate a response characteristic function of the X-ray detector from a relationship between measurement data and reference data, the measurement data and the reference data being converted into the X-ray characteristic coordinates.
Abstract:
An electronic device includes: a display; a first image sensor configured to output a first image signal based on sensing a first light passing through the display; a second image sensor configured to output a second image signal based on sensing a second light that does not pass through the display; and a processor configured to: generate a first optical value and a second optical value based on the second image signal, the second optical value being different from the first optical value; based on the first optical value satisfying a first condition, correct the first image signal by using the second optical value.
Abstract:
An X-ray imaging apparatus includes: an X-ray source configured to irradiate X-rays to an object; an X-ray detector configured to obtain a first X-ray image of the object; a noise-reduced image creator configured to generate a noise-reduced image in which a noise is reduced from the first X-ray image; a noise image creator configured to generate a noise image based on differences between the first X-ray image and the noise-reduced image; an edge image creator configured to generate, from the noise image, an edge image in which edges are enhanced; an output image creator configured to combine the noise-reduced image with the edge image to generate a second X-ray image; and a display configured to display the second X-ray image. By enhancing edges while reducing noise, an image with high definition and high quality may be output and a user can obtain accurate information from the image.
Abstract:
Disclosed are an X-ray imaging apparatus that captures one or more images of an inner part of the human body or the like, and a method for controlling the apparatus. In particular, an imaging system includes an X-ray generator which is configured to irradiate a target object with X-rays, a detector which is configured to detect X-rays which are emitted at a plurality of times and which have propagated through the target object, a driver which is configured to change a position of the X-ray generator or the detector, an image processor which is configured to generate a plurality of X-ray images from the detected X-rays and to compare the plurality of X-ray images in order to generate at least one difference image, and a controller which is configured to detect tissues which constitute the target object based on the at least one difference image.
