Abstract:
Disclosed are an image processing apparatus, an image processing method and a recording medium thereof, the image processing apparatus including: a storage configured to store standard information about at least one anatomical entity; and at least one processor configured to detect regions corresponding to a plurality of anatomical entities based on a medical image obtained by scanning an object including the plurality of anatomical entities, to estimate a volume of a first anatomical entity at a predetermined point in time based on object information measured from the detected regions of the anatomical entity and the standard information stored in the storage, and to provide information about condition of the first anatomical entity based on the estimated volume. Thus, it is possible to make a diagnosis more simply and accurately by determining condition information of an anatomical entity at a point in time for the diagnosis based on a randomly taken medical image.
Abstract:
Provided is a method for projection and back-projection for method and apparatus for image processing. The method for projection and back-projection includes the steps of: projecting the center of a detector cell included in a detection unit onto a common axis; mapping the boundaries of pixels in a pixel grid onto the common axis; projecting the center of the detector cell included in the detection unit onto the set common axis; and determining a pixel value on the basis of the step for mapping the boundaries of pixels onto the set common axis.
Abstract:
A method of generating running assistance information includes recognizing a running pattern of a vehicle based on information about a current state of the vehicle which is sensed while the vehicle is running; determining a current status of a driver of the vehicle based on the running pattern of the vehicle; and generating a notification signal based on a risk level of the driver determined based on the determined current status of the driver.
Abstract:
An image processing apparatus is disclosed. The image processing apparatus of the present invention comprises: an image receiving unit for receiving a first image and a second image of the same object taken at different times; a processor for obtaining transformation information by registering the first image on the basis of the second image, obtaining a first segment image corresponding to an area of the object from the first image, and generating a second segment image corresponding to an area of the object of the second image by transforming the obtained first segment image according to the transformation information; and an output unit for outputting the second segment image.
Abstract:
A computed tomography (CT) apparatus includes a reconstruction unit which reconstructs a first CT image corresponding to a field of view (FOV) by using a first sinogram acquired by a CT scan of an object; and a correction unit which acquires a second sinogram by performing forward projection on the first CT image and acquires a second CT image by using the second sinogram and a third sinogram representing a portion of the object that is not included in the FOV. Thus, the CT apparatus reduces generation of image errors to thereby provide a high-quality reconstructed CT image.
Abstract:
Provided is a medical image processing apparatus including: a data acquisition unit configured to respectively acquire a plurality of medical images representing an object including at least one target at a plurality of different time points; and an image processor configured to generate, based on the acquired plurality of medical images, a diagnostic image showing a degree of change that has occurred in the at least one target over the plurality of different time points.
