摘要:
With the present invention, using the schematic depiction of the tubular tissue in which the run path of the tubular tissue is adjusted so that the tubular tissues may not overlap, the information of the tubular tissue acquired from the volume image (three-dimensional image) is mapped onto this schematic depiction and displayed on the display device, whereby it is possible for the user to confirm all the information of the tubular tissue at a glance without need of performing an operation of rotating the displayed image in grasping the overall image of the tubular image.

A steering system includes: a tilt mechanism including a pivotal shaft which extends in a sidewise direction of the vehicle, the tilt mechanism being adapted to pivot the movable column portion upward and downward around the pivotal shaft, the tilt mechanism controlling the movable column portion to be secured in a certain upper pivotal position and a certain lower pivotal position; a telescope mechanism adapted to pull out and push in in a forward-backward direction of the vehicle the movable column portion including the pivotal shaft; a pop up mechanism for allowing the movable column portion to make a popping up over an uppermost pivotal position defined by the tilt mechanism; and a pop up mechanism controlling mechanism for controlling the popping up of the movable column portion by the pop up mechanism until the movable column portion pulled out by the telescope mechanism has a certain length.
摘要:
A catalyst converter for cleaning the exhaust of a vehicle, and in particular for a vehicle such as a car or motorcycle. The catalyst converter is provided with a case containing and holding a honeycomb-shaped ceramic catalyst body, with the case being divided into two halves in the axial direction. The catalyst body is covered in the front and rear with members supporting the end edges in the axial direction and the outer peripheral portions. The halves of the case are integrally combined while being pressed toward each other.

To obtain more accurate image recognition results while alleviating the burden on the user to check the image recognition results. An image recognition unit recognizes a predetermined structure in an image representing a subject, then a recognition result judging unit measures the predetermined structure on the image recognized by the image recognition unit to obtain a predetermined anatomical measurement value of the predetermined structure, automatically judges whether or not the anatomical measurement value falls within a predetermined standard range, and, if it is outside of the range, judges the image recognition result to be incorrect.

A size measurement apparatus comprises a designation section that designates parts in images of two or more medical images acquired through image taking for a subject; a first measurement section that measures a size of an image on a part designated by the designation section, of the medical image, as to a measurement direction associated with a geometry of the image; and a second measurement section that measures a size of a common measurement direction common to two or more medical images, the common measurement direction being determined in accordance with the measurement direction in the first measurement section.

A medical image display apparatus includes an image database for recording a three-dimensional standard image of a model subject, a three-dimensional anatomical image corresponding to the three-dimensional standard image, and anatomical information on living tissue names, an image acquirer for acquiring a three-dimensional medical image of an examinee, a medical tomographic image identifier for identifying a medical tomographic image in the three-dimensional medical image based on a user's instruction, a standard tomographic image identifier for identifying a standard tomographic image in the three-dimensional standard image, which corresponds to the medical tomographic image, an anatomical tomographic image identifier for identifying an anatomical tomographic image in the three-dimensional anatomical image, which corresponds to the standard tomographic image, and a display controller for displaying the medical tomographic image and the anatomical tomographic image on a display unit, while displaying the living tissue names over the anatomical tomographic image based on the anatomical information.
摘要:
Regions outside the surfaces of subject's bodies being emphasized is prevented when generating pseudo three dimensional medical images. An image processing apparatus is equipped with: an image obtaining section, for obtaining a plurality of medical images that represent transverse sections of a subject, which has been imaged in advance; a region classifying section, for classifying regions within each of the plurality of medical images as being one of a subject region that represents the interior of the surface of the subject's body, and a non subject region that represents the exterior of the surface of the subject's body; and a pseudo three dimensional medical image generating section, for generating a pseudo three dimensional medical image by executing an intensity projection method based on image information that represents the plurality of regions which are classified as being subject regions.
摘要:
A tumor region is determined within a three dimensional medical image. A long axis and a short axis of the determined tumor region are designated. The lengths of the designated long axis and the designated short axis are measured. The measured lengths of the long axis and the short axis are displayed.
摘要:
An image processing apparatus having improved detection performance for detecting an abnormal shadow, such as a tumor, and reducing a burden on the user is disclosed. In the image processing apparatus, an aligning unit aligns a previous image and a current diagnosis image with each other, and a corresponding position calculating unit calculates a position on a subject in the current diagnosis image corresponding to the position of an abnormal shadow on the subject in the previous image based on positional information of the abnormal shadow on the subject in the previous image and alignment information. A current diagnosis image abnormal shadow detecting unit detects the abnormal shadow in the current diagnosis image from the vicinity of the corresponding position in the current diagnosis image.
摘要:
The number of similar case images to be displayed is changed according to the number of times and progress of imaging diagnosis. First examination judgment means is added to a medical image interpretation support system comprising storage means for storing image data sets obtained by imaging subjects, similar case image search means for extracting similar case image data sets having a characteristic similar to an interpretation target image from the image data sets, and display control means for controlling display of the interpretation target image and the similar case images. The display control means controls the display so as to display a larger number of the similar case images together with the interpretation target image in the case where the interpretation target image has been judged to be a first examination image than in the otherwise case.
