Abstract
An apparatus and method for providing a 3D stereoscopic image is provided. The apparatus may provide a 3D stereoscopic image generated based on two projection images imaged at different positions.
Claims23
A method of providing three-dimensional (3D) medical information by a medical diagnostic apparatus, the method comprising:
- generating a first projection image and a second projection image;
- generating a stereoscopic image based on the first projection image and the second projection image;
- and
- outputting the stereoscopic image using a 3D display,
- wherein the first projection image is generated by a detector detecting X-rays irradiated toward an object by a source at a first position, and the second projection image is generated by the detector detecting X-rays irradiated toward the object by the source at a second position.

An apparatus for providing three-dimensional (3D) medical information, the apparatus comprising:
- a source to irradiate X-rays toward an object at a first position, and at a second position different from the first position;
- a detector to generate a first projection image by detecting the X-rays irradiated by the source at the first position, and a second projection image by detecting the X-rays irradiated by the source at the second position;
- a controller to generate a stereoscopic image based on the first projection image and the second projection image;
- and
- an output unit to output the stereoscopic image.
2 more elements
A method comprising:
- irradiating X-rays onto a region of interest (ROI) of an object at a first position;
- generating a first projection image by detecting the X-rays passed through the object;
- irradiating X-rays onto the object at a second position disposed at a first distance from the first position;
- generating a second projection image by detecting the X-rays passed through the object;
- generating a stereoscopic image of the ROI based on the first projection image and the second projection image;
- and
- providing a three-dimensional (3D) display of the stereoscopic image.
