| 20120213451 | IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS AND METHOD - The disclosure provides an image processing apparatus and method. The image processing apparatus may include: a filter for performing an iterative filtering on an input image; and an iterative filtering stopping device for determining whether to stop the iterative filtering according to a variation speed of the filtered image obtained from each iteration of the iterative filtering with increasing of iteration times. | 08-23-2012 |
| 20090251461 | ULTRASOUND DIAGNOSIS APPARATUS - An ultrasound diagnosis apparatus: in conjunction with change of a projection region using an operation part, changes a viewpoint to a position where a reference cross section is in front and the changed projection region is on the back; in conjunction with change of the viewpoint using the operation part, changes a region where the reference cross section is in front and the changed viewpoint is on the back to the projection region; in conjunction with change of a scanning region using the operation part, changes the viewpoint to a position where the reference cross section is in front and the changed scanning region is on the back; in conjunction with change of the viewpoint using the operation part, changes the scanning region to a region where the reference cross section is in front and the viewpoint is on the back; and then executes rendering. | 10-08-2009 |
| 20090060125 | X-RAY CT APPARATUS - An X-ray CT apparatus sets at least an imaging-subject area to be imaged, and a heart imaging area included in the imaging-subject area and determined based on a position and size of a heart on a subject P. When an image is taken, the X-ray CT apparatus sets imaging conditions, such as whether electrocardiographic synchronization is required for imaging and a type of reconstruction mode, based on each set imaging area. | 03-05-2009 |
| 20090028289 | X-RAY CT APPARATUS - A CT value of an image within a region of interest is calculated with time. While the calculated CT value does not exceed a predetermined threshold value, a reconstruction mode used when an image is reconstructed from projection data is set to half reconstruction. On the other hand, while the calculated CT value exceeds a predetermined threshold value, the reconstruction mode is set to segment reconstruction. | 01-29-2009 |
