20080317215 | RADIOGRAPHY CONTROL APPARATUS AND RADIOGRAPHY CONTROL METHOD - A control device controls a radiography apparatus including a radiation generating unit that emits radiation, a radiation detecting unit that detects the radiation emitted from the radiation generating unit. The control device includes a positional-relationship detecting unit that detects a positional relationship between the radiation generating unit and the radiation detecting unit when the radiography apparatus performs a radiographic operation; and a control unit that controls the radiographic operation of the radiography apparatus based on the result of the detection performed by the positional-relationship detecting unit. | 12-25-2008 |
20090080595 | COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY SYSTEM - A CT system performing reconstruction processing based on projection-image-data items obtained from a CT apparatus, wherein the CT system performs the reconstruction processing by, for example, distributing opposed projection-image-data items to a submachine as a single set. | 03-26-2009 |
20090103678 | X-RAY IMAGING APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD FOR X-RAY IMAGING APPARATUS, PROGRAM, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - An X-ray imaging apparatus includes a visible light imaging unit which captures an image of a visual field region with visible light, an X-ray irradiation unit which irradiates X-rays, an X-ray imaging unit which receives the irradiated X-rays and acquires a radiograph based on the X-rays, and a detection unit which detects an irradiated region irradiated with the X-rays based on the acquired radiograph. | 04-23-2009 |
20090103685 | X-RAY IMAGING APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD FOR X-RAY IMAGING APPARATUS, PROGRAM, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - An X-ray imaging apparatus includes an X-ray collimator control unit which controls an X-ray collimator shape, an X-ray irradiation unit which irradiates X-rays in accordance with the X-ray collimator shape, an X-ray imaging unit which receives the irradiated X-rays and acquires a radiograph, a perpendicularity determination unit which determines, on the basis of the comparison between the X-ray collimator shape and the radiograph, whether the X-ray irradiation direction of the X-ray irradiation unit is perpendicular to a light-receiving surface by which the X-ray imaging unit receives the X-rays, and an irradiation control unit which controls X-ray irradiation by the X-ray irradiation unit on the basis of the determination result obtained by the perpendicularity determination unit. | 04-23-2009 |
20090136000 | IMAGING APPARATUS - An imaging apparatus in which positions of an X-ray image and optical image of a subject can be brought into registration with each other is provided. A half-mirror is provided between the X-ray source and subject and is configured to pass X-rays and reflect visible light. A TV camera captures the optical image of the surface of the subject reflected by the half-mirror. A display unit displays the optical image captured by the TV camera together with a reference mark indicating the reference position of this optical image, and displays, in superimposed form, an X-ray image obtained by capturing a prescribed reference object as a subject by using an X-ray imaging unit. An adjusting unit adjusts position and attitude of an X-ray detector in such a manner that the reference object displayed by the display unit will coincide with the reference mark. | 05-28-2009 |
20100177941 | MEDICAL IMAGE DIAGNOSIS SUPPORT SYSTEM AND IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD - A medical image diagnosis support system is configured to improve the processing efficiency and analysis accuracy of CAD processing. This invention is a medical image diagnosis support system which includes a CAD server and a PACS/viewer apparatus. This system includes a first processing path in which a processed image obtained by executing image processing including noise suppression processing or sharpening processing for a medical image obtained by the imaging apparatus is stored in the PACS/viewer apparatus, a second processing path in which a CAD result obtained by executing CAD processing for a medical image obtained by the imaging apparatus is stored in the PACS/viewer apparatus, and a processing unit configured to execute a process of associating the processed image with the CAD result in the first processing path and the second processing path. | 07-15-2010 |
20100299622 | RADIATION IMAGING APPARATUS, DISPLAY PROCESSING METHOD OF THE SAME, AND COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM - A radiation imaging apparatus for imaging a radiation image inputs an operation instruction from a user and performs display control of a screen that has an input region in which one or more information input regions for having various types of information input thereto are disposed, and a workflow region in which workflow information related to imaging of the radiation image is disposed. Here, when a confirmation instruction indicating confirmation of an operation is input, the radiation imaging apparatus moves the one or more information input regions of the input region toward a prescribed region of the workflow region, and performs display using animation that sequences the movement of the one or more information input regions. | 11-25-2010 |
20110075812 | RADIATION IMAGING APPARATUS, RADIATION IMAGING METHOD, RADIATION IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, RADIATION IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD, AND COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM - A radiation imaging apparatus includes an imaging unit to capture a radiation image of an object, a discrimination unit to discriminate whether the current imaging mode is a mode of storing radiation images or a mode of storing no radiation image, a first calculation unit to calculate image size information, a second calculation unit to calculate image display region information indicating the size of an image display region, a first decision unit to decide a rotation condition for the rotation of an displayed image, and a second decision unit to decide an enlargement/reduction condition. If discriminated at the start of radiation irradiation that the current mode is the mode of storing no image, the second decision unit decides an enlargement/reduction condition from image size information and image display region information to maximize the ratio of an overall radiation image rotated under the rotation condition decided. | 03-31-2011 |
