Abstract
An image acquisition unit acquires a plurality of medical images, and a common region determination unit determines common regions commonly present in the plurality of medical images. An enlargement ratio determination unit determines an enlargement ratio, which is for displaying the plurality of common regions in the plurality of medical images with the same size, for each of the plurality of medical images. A display control unit applies the determined enlargement ratio to the plurality of common regions, and displays images of the plurality of common regions after applying the enlargement ratio on a display.
Claims9
An image display device, comprising:
- image acquisition unit for acquiring a plurality of medical images;
- common region determination unit for determining common regions commonly present in the plurality of medical images;
- enlargement ratio determination unit for determining an enlargement ratio, which is for displaying the plurality of common regions in the plurality of medical images with the same size, for each of the plurality of medical images;
- and
- display control unit for applying the determined enlargement ratio to the plurality of common regions and displaying images of the plurality of common regions after applying the enlargement ratio on display unit,
- wherein the common region determination unit extracts anatomical regions common to the plurality of medical images from the plurality of medical images, and determines the common regions based on the extracted anatomical regions, and
- wherein, in a case where a plurality of anatomical regions are present in each of the plurality of medical images, the common region determination unit extracts one anatomical region from each of the plurality of medical images, determines other anatomical regions in other medical images other than one medical image of the plurality of medical images based on a positional relationship between the one anatomical region extracted in the one medical image and the other anatomical regions other than the one anatomical region, and determines the common regions based on the one anatomical region and the other anatomical regions extracted in the plurality of medical images.
