Abstract
The display device for tomographic image has a display, a hard disk, a mechanical slide-bar for setting a display speed for series of tomographic images and a controller. This device is used for displaying tomographic images in the manner of paging on the display for the series based on a speed set by the mechanical slide-bar.
Claims12
A display device for tomographic image, comprising:
- (a) a display portion for displaying at least one series of tomographic images,
- (b) a storage mechanism for storing at least one series of tomographic image data,
- (c) a display-speed setting mechanism for setting a display speed for at least one series of tomographic images, and
- (d) a controller which receives data from the storage mechanism for the series and displays tomographic images in the manner of paging on the display portion for the series based on a speed set by the display-speed setting mechanism;
- the display-speed setting mechanism being a mechanical variable knob in a separate case from that comprising the controller.
A display device for tomographic image, comprising:
- (a) a display portion for displaying at least two series of tomographic images,
- (b) a storage mechanism for storing at least two series of tomographic image data,
- (c) a display-speed setting mechanism for setting a display speed of each series for at least two series of tomographic images, and
- (d) a controller which receives data from the storage mechanism for each series and simultaneously displaying a plurality of series of tomographic images on the display portion for individual series based on a speed set by the display-speed setting mechanism.
A recording medium on which a program is recorded for displaying tomographic images on a display by a computer;
- the program being adapted to execute the steps comprising:
- receiving data for at least two series of tomographic images from the storage mechanism,
- receiving a set of values for display speed for each series of tomographic images, and
- displaying a plurality series of tomographic images on a display simultaneously by displaying tomographic images in the manner of paging for each series.
A method for displaying tomographic image using a display device comprising image display portion and a controller;
- the method comprising steps of:
- locating display area in the form of a bar whose each end defines a minimum value and a maximum value of necessary display range of CT value;
- receiving a CT value range to be displayed on the image display portion;
- indicating received CT value range on the display area using visibly distinctive color;
- and
- indicating a center of the received CT value range using further visibly distinctive color or shape;
- whereby, showing CT values currently displayed on image display portion.
