Abstract:
A method of estimating an organ deformation model includes generating at least one 3D organ shape model of an organ of a subject based on at least one non-real time medical image representing a deformation state of the organ of the subject; generating a deformation space for the organ of the subject based on the at least one 3D organ shape model and prior knowledge regarding the organ; and estimating a 3D organ deformation model of the organ of the subject based on a real-time medical image of the organ of the subject and the deformation space.
Abstract:
A method of generating an elasticity image and an elasticity image generating apparatus are provided. The method includes detecting corresponding partial areas from examined areas of a first elasticity image and a second elasticity image from among a plurality of elasticity images indicating elasticity of examined areas in a subject, and generating data of a third elasticity image, comprising combining data of the first elasticity image with data of the second elasticity image based on the corresponding partial areas of the first elasticity image and the second elasticity image.
