摘要:
An X-ray imaging system includes an X-ray generator, an electronic cassette, a holder arm, a PC, and a control device. The holder arm has an L-shaped arm body and a base column. To one end of the arm body, an X-ray source is attached. The base column is perpendicularly attached to the electronic cassette, and swingably holds the arm body. The X-ray source is shifted among an R irradiation position, an L irradiation position, and a base position by the swing of the arm body, and is fixed at each position. With the shift of the X-ray source between the R and L irradiation positions, a parallax image including a pair of R and L viewpoint images is captured.

Each of two X-ray sources hangs from a hook movably attached to a horizontal bar of a holding device. The horizontal bar is provided with a position indicating section that indicates positions suitable for each of the X-ray sources, corresponding to an object of interest (the size of X-ray irradiation area). The position indicating section has first to third lamps arranged at the respective suitable positions. Out of the first to third lamps, a holding device controller of an imaging control device turns on lamps corresponding to the object of interest inputted from an input device of a console. The hooks are moved along rails to the positions of the lamps turned on, respectively. Movable joints of support legs are operated to adjust a distance between the X-ray sources and an image receiving surface of a cassette.
摘要:
Disclosed is a technique for correcting a pixel defect in the capture of two radiological images with parallax therebetween. Radiation beam is directly radiated to a radiation detector 15 in two radiographing directions, without passing through a subject, thereby acquiring two defect detecting radiological images. A pixel defect in each of the two defect detecting radiological images is detected in advance. A pixel position where the pixel defect occurs is stored in advance so as to be associated with each radiographing direction. Then, radiation beam is radiated to the subject from the two radiographing directions to acquire two radiological images for diagnosis. A target pixel which is disposed at the stored pixel position where the pixel defect occurs in each of the two radiological images for diagnosis is corrected.

In a mammography system including a face guard, it is possible to prevent a human subject whose head is in close contact with the face guard from losing her posture and being in an unstable state. In a mammography system which includes a shield member for preventing radiation from being irradiated onto the face of the human subject, a radiation source which irradiates radiation is moved, such that, when radiation in two radiographing directions is irradiated from two focal positions distant from the chest wall of the human subject in a forward direction, the shield member is configured to be fixed at a predetermined position in the forward direction without being interlocking with the movement of the radiation source.

An image display apparatus and method capable of accurately retrieving images of comparable cases to that of an image to be diagnosed from multitudes of images. Data of a diagnostic image which has anatomical structures obtained by imaging a predetermined region of a subject to which a diagnosis is to be given. Then, a candidate image that has a candidate region of abnormal shadow is obtained, and the anatomical information and characteristic amounts, which indicate a likelihood of the candidate region being an abnormal shadow, are obtained from the candidate image. Thereafter, abnormal shadow images that have comparable anatomical information and characteristic amounts to those of the candidate region are retrieved from an image database and displayed comparably with the candidate region.
摘要:
A radiographic imaging apparatus is provided with a generation unit, a radiation source, a moving unit, and an imaging control unit. The generation unit captures radiographic images based on beams of radiation that have been transmitted through an imaging target site and with which an imaging surface has been individually irradiated and generates sets of image information representing the captured radiographic images. The moving unit moves the radiation source such that irradiation with the beams of radiation is possible from different directions including a front direction. The imaging control unit controls the moving unit such that, in a case where the radiographic imaging apparatus performs stereo imaging, the imaging surface is irradiated with the beams of radiation from the front direction and from a direction of a predetermined angle.

摘要:
3D image areas are set respectively from within display areas of a right-eye image display unit and a left-eye image display unit, and 2D image areas are set respectively from within the 3D image areas. A right-eye disparity image and a left-eye disparity image to be displayed respectively in the 3D image areas are acquired, and planar images 74 to be displayed respectively in the 2D image areas are acquired. The planar images are placed respectively in the 2D image areas, whereas the right-eye disparity image and the left-eye disparity image are placed in the 3D image areas apart from the 2D image areas, thereby generating a right-eye image and a left-eye image.
