Abstract:
There is provided a radiographic imaging apparatus capable of facilitating a comparative radiological interpretation of symmetric portions or a temporal comparative radiological interpretation of a same imaging target. The radiographic imaging apparatus includes an image control unit configured to cause a display unit configured to display a plurality of divided screens to display a first radiographic image of a first imaging target on a first divided screen of the plurality of divided screens. The image control unit causes a radiographic image of the first imaging target that is captured at a different time from the first radiographic image or a radiographic image of a second imaging target that is a symmetric imaging target of the first imaging target to be displayed on a second divided screen of the plurality of divided screens as a second radiographic image.
Abstract:
A radiation CT apparatus includes a rotation unit configured to rotate about a rotation axis, a radiation generation unit and a radiation detector which are fixed on either side of the rotation axis in the rotation unit, and a gantry cover containing the radiation generation unit and the radiation detector and including a breast insert portion configured to insert a breast of an object. An opening portion that can be opened and closed is placed on the gantry cover of the radiation CT apparatus. The radiation generation unit and the radiation detector are stopped to form a space that allows a user to access the breast insert portion from the opening portion.
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.
Abstract:
The present invention provides an image display method that enables intuitive identification of a portion where a mammary gland region and a microcalcified region overlap each other in a radiographic captured image of a breast. The radiographic image data display method according to an aspect of the present invention includes detecting microcalcified regions and a mammary gland region in the radiographic image data, and displaying the microcalcified regions and the mammary gland region on a single screen.

Abstract:
A breast imaging apparatus, capable of performing mammogram imaging and CT imaging by a radiation imaging unit that holds a radiation generation unit and a radiation detection unit configured to detect radiation irradiation from the radiation generation unit such that the radiation generation unit and the radiation detection unit face each other, includes: a housing elevating unit configured to vertically move a housing support unit configured to support the radiation imaging unit; and a control unit configured to control the vertical movement of the housing elevating unit based on an imaging type that is one of mammogram imaging and CT imaging.
Abstract:
An image processing apparatus comprises an obtaining unit that obtains a plurality of images obtained by irradiating radiation having different energies, a generating unit that generates a processed image by compositing the plurality of images, and a compositing unit that generates a composite image by compositing one image among the plurality of images and the processed image so as to enhance a low-frequency component of the one image and enhance a high-frequency component of the processed image.
Abstract:
Provided is an image processing apparatus including: a first generating unit configured to generate a three-dimensional image with use of an image signal obtained by imaging an imaging target object with a radiation; a second generating unit configured to set a projection reference line in the three-dimensional image, and perform projection processing of projecting pixel values of the three-dimensional image to the projection reference line for each projection angle of a plurality of projection angles about the projection reference line, to thereby generate a plurality of pieces of projection data at the plurality of projection angles; and a third generating unit configured to two-dimensionally arrange the plurality of pieces of projection data based on the plurality of projection angles, to thereby generate a two-dimensional image.
Abstract:
Provided is a radiation imaging apparatus including: an image acquiring unit configured to acquire a first radiation image, which is photographed by irradiating an object with radiation under a state in which a subject is not in an imaging range, and a second radiation image, which is photographed by radiating radiation under a state in which the subject and the object are in the imaging range; and an image processing unit configured to perform correction for deleting image information on the object from the second radiation image by using the first radiation image.
Abstract:
There is provided a portable X-ray diagnostic apparatus. The X-ray diagnostic apparatus comprises an X-ray generation unit configured to generate X-rays, a display unit configured to display information about X-ray imaging by the X-ray generation unit, a column including a shaft extending in a first direction and configured to be rotatable about the shaft, a cart on which the display unit and the column are set, and an extendable boom configured to support the X-ray generation unit and extend in a second direction crossing the first direction, the boom obtaining, when storing the X-ray generation unit, a length to store the X-ray generation unit between the display unit and the column.
