摘要:
Normal region with inner wall of a lumen estimated to be normal is searched; in the normal region, a standard depth position is obtained along with the phased depth positions; a determination is made as to whether the pixel values of image data related to the phased depth positions are the pixel values of a tumor region estimated to be a tumor; when the pixel values are those of the tumor region, the deepest depth position of the tumor region is searched at each position of the inner wall of the lumen; the tumor region at each position of the inner wall of the lumen is identified for each of the deepest depth positions of the tumor region based on the tumor region searched at each position of the inner wall of the lumen and on information on the deepest depth positions of the tumor region.

A medical-diagnosis assisting apparatus and a radiodiagnosis apparatus that include a simulation function prior to an examination/treatment, and a guide function during an examination/treatment are provided. Specifically, an extracting unit that extracts image data of a blood vessel portion to be an observation target from three-dimensional image data acquired by imaging a subject, a display unit that can display a three-dimensional image of the extracted blood vessel portion, a display-direction setting unit that displays the three-dimensional image of the extracted blood vessel portion on a display unit at a display angle specified by a user, and a simulation-image creating unit that simulates a course of a catheter when the catheter is to be inserted into the extracted blood vessel portion, and overlays a maker that indicates a position and a moving direction of the catheter on the three-dimensional image of the blood vessel portion are included.

A medical image processing apparatus has a parameter calculating unit, a storage unit, and an image generating unit. The parameter calculating unit analyzes data of a plurality of time-series medical images, each containing an image of an organ having a functional blood vessel and a feeding blood vessel, and calculates a parameter based on at least a blood volume in the feeding blood vessel. The storage unit stores in advance a table that associates parameters with degrees of a cancer progression of the organ. The image generating unit refers to the table, obtains a degree of the cancer progression corresponding to the calculated parameter, and generates an image to which the obtained degree is applied on a region-by-region basis.

For a three-dimensional region including a treatment target site of a patient, a puncture needle scanning region R1 having a slice thickness d1 is set with reference to a cross section (a puncture cross section) including an insertion direction of a puncture needle. Subsequently, in the y-direction substantially perpendicular to the puncture cross section, two treatment target scanning regions R2 (R21 and R22) each being adjacent to the puncture needle scanning region R1 and having a slice thickness d2 are set. Then, based on volume data in the puncture needle scanning region R1 acquired by first three-dimensional scan with ultrasound waves and volume data in the treatment target scanning regions R2 acquired by second three-dimensional scan performed at a lower volume rate than the first three-dimensional scan, image data is generated for the purpose of supporting puncture.
摘要:
Positioning images are created by a projection-image creating unit before imaging, and the positioning images are grouped and stored by a projection-image storage unit for each preset. When imaging is started, a positioning-information calculating unit calculates positioning parameters using the positioning images stored in the projection-image storage unit. An analysis-image-for-synthesis creating unit creates an analysis image using the positioning parameters, and an analysis-image synthesizing and displaying unit synthesizes the analysis image with a live image and displays a synthesized image. When an imaging direction of an X-ray angiography apparatus is changed, a positioning-information updating unit directly updates the positioning parameters based on an amount of change of the imaging direction.

A medical image processing apparatus includes an acquisition unit which acquires an anatomical malignant grade of an abnormality candidate region that is possibly an anatomical abnormality included in an image showing the inside of a subject based on a candidate region characteristic amount indicative of characteristics concerning the abnormality candidate region and a peripheral region characteristic amount indicative of characteristics concerning a peripheral region continuous with the abnormality candidate region in the image, a determination unit which determines an examination policy or a treatment policy with respect to the abnormality candidate based on the malignant grade, and a presentation unit which presents the examination policy or the treatment policy determined by the determination unit to a user.
摘要:
A medical data generating apparatus includes a data processing unit, a work-status data generation unit, a display unit and a work-status restoration unit. The data processing unit acquires medical data from a database to perform data processing. The work-status data generation unit generates work-status data as a data record of medical data. The work-status data indicates a work status of the data processing. The display unit acquires medical data including at least one piece of work-status data from the database to list the acquired pieces of the medical data on a display device together with identification information of the acquired piece of the work-status data. The work-status restoration unit restores a work status of a data processing corresponding to a selected piece of work-status data based on the selected piece of the work-status data.
摘要:
A medical image-processing device stores the parameters of window level and window width set by a window conversion part. An opacity curve-setting part sets the settings of the OWL and OWW in an opacity curve based on the stored parameters during volume rendering for volume data. In this way, the medical image-processing device sets the opacity of a three-dimensional image.
摘要:
The medical image processing device comprises a detection part, a storage part, an image generation part, and a display-control part. The detection part detects positions and directions of an endoscope. The storage part stores medical image data showing tubular tissues generated by a medical imaging device different from the endoscope. The image generation part generates virtual endoscopic image data showing the internal portion of the tubular tissues based on the medical image data having a position that is a predetermined distance away from the position of the endoscope as a viewpoint. The display-control part receives endoscopic image data showing the internal portion of the tubular tissues generated by the endoscope and displays an endoscopic image based on the endoscopic image data and a virtual endoscopic image based on the virtual endoscopic image data on a display part.
