Abstract:
A breast imaging apparatus includes a gantry including a radiation generating unit and a radiation detecting unit configured to detect the radiation emitted from the radiation generating unit, wherein the radiation generating unit and the radiation detecting unit can be rotated in an opposed state, an extraction unit configured to extract first tissues and a second tissue from a three-dimensional image based on a projection image output from the radiation detecting unit, a classification unit configured to classify a group of the first tissues with reference to the second tissue, and a display configured to distinguishably display the group of the first tissues classified by the classification unit.
Abstract:
An image processing apparatus obtains a three-dimensional radiation image of a right region of substantially symmetrical regions, obtains a three-dimensional radiation image of a left region of the substantially symmetrical regions, performs alignment between the three-dimensional radiation image of the right region and the three-dimensional radiation image of the left region based on a feature position of the regions, and substantially symmetrically arranges and displays the three-dimensional radiation image of the right region and the three-dimensional radiation image of the left region which have been aligned.
Abstract:
A breast imaging apparatus includes a gantry which includes a radiation generation unit configured to generate radiation and a radiation detection unit configured to detect radiation generated by the radiation generation unit, the radiation generation unit and the radiation detection unit being capable of rotating facing each other, wherein the gantry is provided with a front cover configured to protect a subject from the radiation generation unit and the radiation detection unit which rotate during CT imaging, and the front cover has an opening in which the breast of the subject is inserted, and a breast holding portion configured to hold the breast of the subject inserted in the opening.
Abstract:
A breast imaging apparatus includes a radiation imaging unit capable of performing mammogram imaging and CT imaging. The breast imaging apparatus includes: a cover detection unit configured to detect a state of a cover that separates an object from the radiation imaging unit; and a control unit configured to switch between the mammogram imaging and the CT imaging based on the state.
Abstract:
A movable X-ray generation apparatus includes an X-ray tube configured to perform irradiation with X-rays, an arm configured to support the X-ray tube, a cart unit configured to support and move the arm, and a monitor mounted on the upper portion of the cart unit. The movable X-ray generation apparatus includes a first member configured to support the monitor to be pivotable about a first rotation axis, and a second member configured to support the first member to be pivotable about a second rotation axis different from the first rotation axis with respect to the cart unit. At least one of the first rotation axis and the second rotation axis provides a rotation axis parallel to the display surface of the monitor and perpendicular to a moving surface on which the cart unit moves.
