摘要:
Noise assessment is important to image quality evaluation as well as image processing. For example, the noise level estimation is used as criteria for terminating an iterative noise reduction process. To determine a meaningful noise level, the pixels in featureless regions are separated from the rest of the image. A new concept of pseudo-standard deviation (PSD) is introduced to automatically determine simple and reliable noise level estimates. Furthermore, a histogram of PSD is constructed with fine bins to calculate the moving average of the histogram. The first peak in filtered histogram gives the most representative noise measure as a desired approximation of true standard deviation.

A first generating unit generates a plurality of blood vessel image data sets at the plurality of imaging angles by performing subtraction processing for the plurality of mask image data sets and the plurality of contrast image data sets. A second generating unit generates a blood vessel volume data set including an artery region, a vein region, and a capillary vessel region by performing reconstruction processing for the plurality of blood vessel image data sets. A third generating unit generates a capillary vessel volume data set associated with the capillary vessel region by removing the artery region and the vein region from the blood vessel volume data set. A fourth generating unit generates a capillary vessel image data set by performing three-dimensional image processing for the capillary vessel volume data set.

According to one embodiment, a medical image diagnosis apparatus includes a volume rendering image generation part, mask image-storage, real time fluoroscopic image generation part, subtraction image generation part, coil image generation part, and image composition part. The volume rendering image generation part generates, from volume data, a volume rendering image representing blood vessel information. The mask image-storage stores fluoroscopic mask images. The real time fluoroscopic image generation part acquires real time fluoroscopic images for each chronological sequence accompanying device insertion. The subtraction image generation part generates a subtraction image by subtraction processing on the fluoroscopic mask image stored in the mask image storage and the real time fluoroscopic image acquired for each chronological sequence. The coil image generation part generates a coil image from the fluoroscopic mask image. The image composition part generates a composite image of the volume rendering image, the subtraction image, and the coil image.

An X-ray diagnosis apparatus includes a display-image creating unit that creates a display image from three-dimensional medical image data such that a display image of three-dimensional medical image data substantially matches up with an anatomical structure on an acquired image by the X-ray diagnosis apparatus. Moreover, the X-ray diagnosis apparatus includes a display-image changing unit that changes a display image so as to maintain consistency of an anatomical structure in accordance with change in acquiring conditions by the X-ray diagnosis apparatus. Furthermore, the X-ray diagnosis apparatus includes a display unit that displays a display image that is at least one of created and changed by at least one of the display-image creating unit and the display-image changing unit.

摘要:
In a storing unit of a medical image processing apparatus, first 3D image corresponding to a first period and second 3D image data corresponding to a second period are stored. The first 3D image data corresponds to a period before contrast agent injection operation and/or therapeutic operation. The second 3D image data corresponds to a period after the contrast agent injection operation and/or therapeutic operation. A 3D subtracting unit subtracts the first 3D image data from the second 3D image data. In 3D subtraction image data, a portion having undergone a change due to contrast agent injection operation and/or therapeutic operation is emphasized. A pseudo 3D image data generating unit generates pseudo 3D image data on the basis of 3D subtraction image data. A displaying unit displays the pseudo 3D image data.
