Abstract
A computer-aided image diagnosis system having (1) a detection section for detecting an abnormal shadow candidate in a radiation image, based on image information representing the radiation image, (2) a switching section for switching a destination where a diagnostic image is output, in accordance with a result of the detection of the abnormal shadow candidate, and (3) an outputting section for outputting the diagnostic image which corresponds to the detection result.
Claims7
A computer-aided image diagnosis system comprising:
- means for detecting an abnormal shadow candidate in a radiation image, based on image information representing said radiation image;
- means for switching the data size of a diagnostic image to be stored as said diagnostic image, in accordance with a result of the detection of said abnormal shadow candidate;
- and
- means for storing said diagnostic image which corresponds to said detection result;
- wherein said means for switching the data size of said diagnostic image comprises switching data compression algorithms for compressing data size of said diagnostic image.
