    摘要: A method for processing images in interventional radioscopy for detecting guiding instrumentation equipment. The method of the invention enables objects of longilinear or very curved shapes to be detected within the radioscopic image having very low contrast to noise ratios. In one embodiment, an algorithm enables the measured contrast to noise ratio of long or curved structures in the image to be considerably improved. To do this, an embodiment of the invention uses oriented, separable, recursive and rapid steerable detection filters. Said detection filters have a low calculation cost, even for long filters having several orientations.

    摘要: A method for the processing of images in interventional radioscopy to produce a sequence of de-noised images in which elongated objects of guiding instrumentation equipment are preserved and enhanced. The method of the invention uses a tool for indicating the confidence to be placed in a given pixel as regards its belonging to a piece of guidance equipment. This tool is used to create a combination algorithm capable of re-injecting the pixels having a low contrast-to-noise ratio into the de-noised image. This combination algorithm enables the enhancement solely of the pixels of the guidance equipment with a high confidence value so as not to produce artifacts with the enhancement of false positives.

    摘要: A process and system for improving a digital image of an object defined by pixels, acquired at the instant t and generated from an X-ray detector receiving X-rays emitted by a source. The process includes: determining a predicted image of the object at the instant t as a function of the images of the object acquired at the instants t−i, i being a positive whole number greater than or equal to 1, and moving of each of the layers constituting the image acquired at the instant t, the number of layers being previously fixed and the moving of each of the layers being previously determined; and generating a visualized image corresponding to a weighted sum of the predicted image and the image of the object acquired at the instant t, so as to attenuate the noise of the image of the object acquired at the instant t.

    摘要: A process for reconstructing a tridimensional image of an object moving with a substantially cyclic motion, for example the vessels of the human heart, in which, for an acquisition duration extending over several cycles of the movement of the object, an acquisitio of a plurality of initial digital radiographic images is performed using a snapshot apparatus rotating around the object. Initial images having the same temporal occurrence in the course of each cycle are selected respectively in successive cycles so as to form a group of images which is associated with this same temporal occurrence. Several different groups of initial images corresponding respectively to several different temporal occurrences are formed. An intermediate tridimensional representation of the object is reconstructed on the basis of each group of initial images and of an iterative image reconstruction algorithm. A law of spatial deformation between two intermediate tridimensional representations is formulated on the basis of the two intermediate tridimensional representations corresponding to two successive temporal occurrences, and a final tridimensional representation of the object is reconstructed on the basis of the initial images successively acquired, of the spatial deformation laws successively formulated and of an iterative image reconstruction algorithm.

    摘要: A set of digital two-dimensional projected images of an object is acquired for different positions of a camera rotating around an object. The projected images are calibrated into a volume containing the object and divided into voxels, the space coordinates of which are identified in a chosen calibration frame of reference. A pretreatment is applied on each acquired image in order to elaborate a rectified image having a predetermined spatial orientation selected as a function of a chosen specific axis of the calibration frame of reference, and an iterative algorithm of algebraic image reconstruction between each rectified image and the set of voxels is applied by successively treating the voxels in a predetermined order linked to the choice of said specific axis, which makes it possible to minimize the duration of reconstruction of the three-dimensional image.
