Abstract
A processing system includes a processor including hardware. The processor acquires an endoscope image in which a duodenal papilla including an oral protrusion is imaged, estimates a depth map of a region including the duodenal papilla from the endoscope image, estimates a summit line of the oral protrusion from the estimated depth map, and performs display processing so as to superimpose a guide display based on the estimated summit line on the endoscope image.
Claims20
A system comprising:
- a processor including hardware, the processor being configured to:
- acquire an image that captured at least a duodenal papilla including an oral protrusion;
- estimate a depth map of a region in the image that includes the duodenal papilla;
- estimate a linear region corresponding to a summit of the oral protrusion from the estimated depth map;
- and
- superimpose a guide display, based on the estimated linear region, on the image.
An endoscope system comprising:
- an endoscope configured to capture an image includes at least a duodenal papilla including an oral protrusion;
- a processor including hardware, the processor being configured to:
- estimate a depth map of a region in the image that includes the duodenal papilla;
- estimate a linear region corresponding to a summit of the oral protrusion from the estimated depth map;
- and
- superimpose a guide display, based on the estimated linear region, on the image.
A method for superimposing a guide display in an endoscope image, the method comprising:
- capturing an image that includes at least a duodenal papilla including an oral protrusion;
- estimating a depth map of a region in the image that includes the duodenal papilla;
- estimating a linear region corresponding to a summit of the oral protrusion from the estimated depth map;
- and
- superimposing the guide display, based on the estimated linear region, on the image.
