摘要:
White light and excitation light are applied to an internal body part. An electronic endoscope captures a normal image of the internal body part irradiated with the white light, and a special image of autofluorescence emitted from living body tissue of the internal body part irradiated with the excitation light. An object distance detector detects an object distance between a CCD and an inspection area of the internal body part based on the normal image. A binning processing section applies a binning process to the special image. There are two types of binning processes, i.e. an intensity adjustment process and a resolution adjustment process. In the intensity adjustment process, the binning number is increased with increase in the object distance. In the resolution adjustment process, the binning number is decreased with increase in the object distance. Which process to perform is determined by operation on a processing type selector.

A radiation image read-out apparatus includes a condenser optical system which converges stimulated emission emitted from a radiation image convertor panel upon exposure to stimulating light. A photodetector receives the stimulated emission converged by the condenser optical system and has a sensitivity to light longer in wavelength than the stimulating light and a stimulating light cut filter is disposed in the optical path of the stimulated emission between the photodetector and the radiation image convertor panel to transmit the stimulated emission and to cut the stimulating light. A longer wavelength light cut filter which transmits the stimulated emission and attenuates the intensity of light components longer in wavelength than the stimulating light is provided in the optical path of the stimulated emission between the photodetector and the radiation image convertor panel.
摘要:
A plurality of original image signals representing radiation image information, which have been fed out from an image signal input apparatus, are fed into an operation processing device. Predetermined operation processing is performed on the plurality of the received original image signals in the operation processing device to obtain an operation-processed image signal. Also, at least one original image signal, which is among the plurality of the original image signals, is transferred to an image output device. Image outputting is performed with the image output device and in accordance with the one original image signal having been transferred. After the operation-processed image signal has been obtained from the predetermined operation processing, the operation-processed image signal is fed into the image output device, and image outputting is performed with the image output device and in accordance with the received operation-processed image signal.

A stimulating light cut filter is disposed between a radiation image convertor panel and a line sensor to transmit the stimulated emission and cut the stimulating light. The stimulating light cut filter includes an optical element which absorbs the stimulating light, and a reflecting layer which reflects the stimulating light.

摘要:
When an output voltage from an acceleration sensor is judged as being larger than a reference voltage of a reference voltage setting unit, a comparator outputs a pulse signal to a holding circuit. The holding circuit holds a high-level energization signal, and an LED is energized by the energization signal supplied from the holding circuit, informing the operator that an excessively large external force has been applied to the cassette.

An image recording sheet and a solid-state image detector are used. The sheet has a stimulable phosphor layer laminated on a base, and the solid-state image detector includes a photoconductive layer containing amorphous selenium as its main component and electrodes disposed on opposite sides of the photoconductive layer. An electric field is applied across the photoconductive layer so that avalanche amplification is obtained within the photoconductive layer. The sheet is scanned under the electric field with stimulating light of wavelength of about 600 nm, and photostimulated luminescence light of wavelength of about 400 nm emitted from the fluorescent layer is incident on the photoconductive layer via an optical guide and a stimulating light cut filter. Electric charge generated within the photoconductive layer is detected by a current detecting circuit, whereby a radiation image signal is obtained.
摘要:
Initial image data having a pixel size smaller than a pixel size of a final image are obtained by using line sensors arranged in a main scan direction and a vertical scan direction, and the final image becomes of high quality by processing the initial image data to prevent the image from becoming uneven. Integration processing means carries out a first conversion process to convert the initial image data comprising signals detected by the line sensors into data for pixels divided in the main scan direction. The integration processing means carries out a second conversion process in which, whenever the data are obtained for three consecutive pixels in the main scan direction, the data are added to become data for one pixel of the final image. The data for the final image are then subjected to an equalization process such as dark current correction carried out by a correction means.
摘要:
A stimulable phosphor sheet, on which radiation image information has been stored, is exposed to stimulating rays, which cause the stimulable phosphor sheet to emit light in proportion to the amount of energy stored thereon during its exposure to radiation. Light, which is emitted from opposite surfaces of the stimulable phosphor sheet when the stimulable phosphor sheet is exposed to the stimulating rays, is detected, and two original image signals representing the radiation image information are acquired. A read-out sensitivity and/or a read-out gain with respect to at least either one surface side of the stimulable phosphor sheet at the time of the image signal acquisition is controlled in accordance with specifications of the stimulable phosphor sheet.
