  • Publication number: 20120002166
    Abstract: Provided are a fundus imaging apparatus and a fundus imaging method capable of alleviating loads on an operator and a patient in fundus imaging and of acquiring a high-resolution fundus image. The fundus imaging apparatus having a tracking function is configured to: determine whether or not a template is recorded based on specific information of an eye to be inspected (203); when the template is recorded, read out the template (204); execute template matching on an acquired fundus image (208); and execute tracking at the time of fundus imaging according to a result of the template matching (211).

  • Publication number: 20110267580
    Abstract: Provided is an ophthalmologic apparatus for detecting an eye movement from movements of a plurality of characteristic points within a fundus image. It is determined whether or not the plurality of characteristic points are included in a new fundus image when a position of a fixation index is changed, based on a relationship between a displacement amount of the fixation index and positions of the characteristic points within a fundus plane. If it is determined that at least one of the plurality of characteristic points is not included in the new fundus image, new characteristic points are extracted from a limited range within a new fundus plane image. Accordingly, the characteristic points can be efficiently reacquired for eye movement detection performed when an imaging target region of an eye to be inspected is changed by the fixation index.

  • Publication number: 20110267581
    Abstract: To accurately detect a movement of an object based on an image distorted by the movement of an eye to be inspected, which is acquired by a scanning imaging system, provided is an ophthalmologic apparatus including: an extraction means for extracting a plurality of characteristic images from a first fundus image of the eye to be inspected; a fundus image acquisition means for acquiring a second fundus image of the eye to be inspected during a period different from a period during which the first fundus image is acquired; and a calculation means for calculating at least a rotation of movements of the eye to be inspected based on the plurality of characteristic images and the second fundus image.

  • Publication number: 20110058718
    Abstract: It is an object of the invention to provide a method of extracting a crossing/branching portion of a blood vessel from a fundus image of the eye at a high probability. The crossing/branching portion of the blood vessel is extracted from the fundus image under such conditions that three or more blood vessels run on an outer circumferential portion of an extraction candidate region and that a coordinate average of a plurality of blood vessels in the outer circumferential portion exists in a center portion of the extraction candidate region.

  • Publication number: 20110058029
    Abstract: Multiple template images to be evaluated are used to carry out pattern matching with multiple images, correlation coefficients among the multiple template images are computed based on the results of the pattern matchings, and the template images are evaluated based on the computation result. As a result, the template images can be evaluated in the selection of template images used for pattern matching.

  • Patent number: 7864950
    Abstract: It is desired to share one circuit by an encryption unit 200 and a decryption unit 500. A normal data transformation unit (FL) 251 and an inverse data transformation unit (FL?1) 273 are located at point symmetry on a non-linear data transformation unit 220, and a normal data transformation unit (FL) 253 and an inverse data transformation unit (FL?1) 271 are located at point symmetry on the non-linear data transformation unit 220. Therefore, the encryption unit 200 and the decryption unit 500 can be configured using the same circuits.
