摘要： An object of the present invention is to easily maintain the couch positioning accuracy and reduce the couch positioning time while resolving the complexity of input operations by the operator at the time of couch positioning. To accomplish the above object, calculation points are set to a CT image at the time of treatment planning, and the 3D coordinates of the set calculation point are set to a DRR image. When a couch positioning unit 115 loads the DRR image from an image server 109, it reads the coordinates of calculation points set to the DRR image and displays them on the monitor 116 together with the DRR image. Further, when DR image data is loaded into the couch positioning unit 115, the DR image is displayed on the monitor 116 and calculation points set to the DRR image are set also to the DR image.

摘要： A therapy system using an ion beam, which can shorten the time required for positioning a couch (patient). The therapy system using the ion beam comprises a rotating gantry provided with an ion beam delivery unit including an X-ray tube. An X-ray detecting device having a plurality of X-ray detectors can be moved in the direction of a rotation axis of the rotating gantry. A couch on which a patient is lying is moved until a tumor substantially reaches an extension of an ion beam path in the irradiating unit. The X-ray tube is positioned on the ion beam path and the X-ray detecting device is positioned on the extension of the ion beam path. With rotation of the rotating gantry, both the X-ray tube emitting an X-ray and the X-ray detecting device revolve around the patient. The X-ray is emitted to the patient and detected by the X-ray detectors after penetrating the patient. Tomographic information of the patient is formed based on signals outputted from the X-ray detectors. Information for positioning the couch is generated by using the tomographic information.

摘要： A patient positioning system comprises a monitor capable of displaying, in scaled-down size, a reference image and a comparative image that are given as image information containing an affected area in the body of a patient, an input device for inputting reference points on the reference image and the comparative image displayed on the monitor, and a computing unit for setting a computing region by enlarging the inputted reference point depending on a scaling-down factor of the monitor, setting a representative point in the set computing region, and computing a patient shift amount based on a position of the representative point in the reference image and a position of the representative point in the comparative image. An improvement in positioning accuracy and a cut in positioning time can be realized at the same time.

摘要： In the process of a registration between first and second images captured by different image pickup apparatuses, even if corresponding parts have different pixel values, different shapes and different field of view, the registration can be carried out with high speed and high degree of precision. In order to perform the registration between the first and second images, either of the first and second images is divided into segmented regions, and given physical property values are set to the segmented regions. Further, an image (pseudo image) having similar pixel values, shapes and field of view to the other image is created, and the pseudo image and the second image that have the same features are positioned, thereby performing the registration between the first and second images.
