Abstract
According to one embodiment, an image processing apparatus includes processing circuitry. The processing circuitry is configured to acquire medical image data. The processing circuitry is configured to obtain spatial distribution of likelihood values representing a likelihood of corresponding to a textual pattern in a predetermined region of a medical image for each of a plurality of textual patterns based on the medical image data. The processing circuitry is configured to calculate feature values in the predetermined region of the medical image based on the spatial distribution obtained for the each of the plurality of textual patterns.
Claims13
An image processing apparatus comprising:
- processing circuitry configured to:
- acquire medical image data;
- based on the medical image data, obtain spatial distribution of likelihood values each representing a likelihood corresponding to a textual pattern in a predetermined region of a medical image;
- and
- calculate feature values of the medical image based on the spatial distribution obtained for each of a plurality of textual patterns,
- wherein the processing circuitry, by using the feature values of the medical image, identifies a kind of lesion, body tissue, or organ of the predetermined region, and
- wherein the processing circuitry acquires the likelihood values according to a pixel value of a pixel in the medical image.
A medical image diagnostic apparatus comprising:
- processing circuitry configured to:
- generate medical image data;
- based on the medical image data, obtain spatial distribution of likelihood values each representing a likelihood corresponding to a textual pattern in a predetermined region of a medical image;
- and
- calculate feature values of the medical image based on the spatial distribution obtained for each of a plurality of textual patterns,
- wherein the processing circuitry, by using the feature values of the medical image, identifies a kind of lesion, body tissue, or organ of the predetermined region, and
- wherein the processing circuitry acquires the likelihood values according to a pixel value of a pixel in the medical image.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, storing computer-readable instruction thereon, which, when executed by processing circuitry, cause the processing circuitry to execute a method comprising:
- acquiring medical image data;
