  • PACS viewer and a method for identifying patient orientation
    Patent number: 9454814
    Abstract: A PACS viewer and an associated method and computer program product are provided for identifying patient orientation. With respect to a PACS viewer, the PACS viewer includes processing circuitry configured to register an image onto a template. The processing circuitry is also configured to determine a representative seed point within each of the left and right lungs as represented by the image. The processing circuitry is further configured to apply an active contour model to each of the left and right lungs to generate a binary image of the left and right lungs. In this regard, the processing circuitry is configured to apply the active contour model by initializing the active contour model with a mask constructed using the representative seed points. Further, the processing circuitry is configured to detect at least one feature from the binary image to permit identification of the left and right lungs.
