Abstract: The present invention provides an image management device and an image management method, both capable of easily performing comparison and reference of images in which taken images and processed images generated from the taken images are intermingled. For that purpose, based on the discrimination results of the attributes of the images by an attribute discrimination unit, an image classification unit classifies the processed images in order that the processed images may be mutually associated or processed images may be associated with taken images related to the processed images. A classified image list is displayed by an image list display unit, and images selected from the list are displayed on an image display unit. Furthermore, the image list displayed on the image list display unit is changed by classification switching by an image classification switching unit.

Abstract: A control device controls a radiography apparatus including a radiation generating unit that emits radiation, a radiation detecting unit that detects the radiation emitted from the radiation generating unit. The control device includes a positional-relationship detecting unit that detects a positional relationship between the radiation generating unit and the radiation detecting unit when the radiography apparatus performs a radiographic operation; and a control unit that controls the radiographic operation of the radiography apparatus based on the result of the detection performed by the positional-relationship detecting unit.

Abstract: In a display control apparatus, an image receiving portion receives a plurality of images sequentially transmitted from an X-ray imaging apparatus based on a transmission order determined by a transmission-order determining portion, and a capture-order information receiving portion also receives, from the X-ray imaging apparatus, capture-order information indicating a capture order in which each of the images was captured by the X-ray imaging apparatus. The images received by the image receiving portion are stored in an image storage memory. A display controller controls displaying of the images stored in the image storage memory on a display apparatus based on a transmission order for transmitting the images or the capture-order information in accordance with an input imaging condition and an operating status of the X-ray imaging apparatus.

Abstract: In a radiographic image connection processing method of connecting plural partial radiographic images, the partial radiographic images are selected, and if appropriate the operation mode is changed, e.g., from an image position adjustment mode, for adjusting a position of the selected partial radiographic image, to an image measurement mode, for measuring the selected partial radiographic image, or vice versa. The selected partial radiographic images are connected. Thus, it is possible to achieve image position adjustment and image measurement during radiographic image connection, and it is also possible to achieve smooth performance of the operations for image position adjustment and image measurement.

Abstract: A CT system performing reconstruction processing based on projection-image-data items obtained from a CT apparatus, wherein the CT system performs the reconstruction processing by, for example, distributing opposed projection-image-data items to a submachine as a single set.

Abstract: In a radiographic image processing apparatus for generating synthesized image data by synthesizing a plurality of partial radiographic images generated by radiation that has passed through the same object, additional information added to each of the plurality of partial radiographic images is acquired. On the basis of the acquired additional information, it is determined whether synthesis is to be permitted. When it is determined that synthesis is not to be permitted, generation of the synthesized image data is inhibited.

Abstract: A radiation image projection apparatus includes an image acquisition unit for acquiring a radiation image obtained by capturing an image of radiation transmitted through an object and a projection unit for projecting the radiation image as visible light onto the object.

Abstract: The invention provides an image capture and display control apparatus that includes an imaging control unit that operates an image capturing unit at a first time interval so as to obtain a captured image with the image capturing unit and a display control unit that displays the captured image on a display unit, which operates at a second time interval. The apparatus changes at least one of an image capture start timing of the image capturing unit and a processing time from the start of image capturing by the image capturing unit until entering a standby state in which the captured image can be displayed by the display unit, so as to shorten a display delay time, which is caused by the second time interval, from the start of operation by the image capturing unit until display of the image data by the display unit.

Abstract: An image management system, image management method and program are provided that can favorably manage images for displaying images that underwent optimization processing or images for creating and displaying difference images in which the generation of artifacts is suppressed. An image from image generator 100 is input to server 109 and stored in storage device 105. The system then determines whether an image including attendant information that is the same as that of the input image is already registered in the system. When such an image is not already registered, attendant information included in the input image is read out and newly registered in association with the input image. In contrast, when an image including attendant information that is the same as that of the input image is registered in the system and the attendant information is registered, information indicating the fact that the image was input is registered.

Abstract: A medical image handling system includes a monitor for displaying a medical image, an input device for inputting an image reading report corresponding to the medical image displayed on the monitor, and a processor. The processor judges presence or absence of an image reading report corresponding to the medical image displayed on the monitor, and restricts a change of the medical image in case the image reading report is judged as absent.
