  • Publication number: 20210145386
    Abstract: An X-ray diagnostic apparatus according to an embodiment includes a storage, an imaging equipment, a display, an input interface, and processing circuitry. The storage memorizes medical images. The imaging equipment includes an X-ray tube configured to emit X-rays toward a subject and a detector configured to detect X-rays emitted from the X-ray tube. The display displays a plurality of medical images including X-ray images captured by the imaging equipment. The input interface accepts an operation instructing storage of a medical image displayed on the display. The processing circuitry identifies a medical image associated with a last-executed, targeted operation, among targeted operations related to any of medical images displayed on the display, and, when the input interface has accepted an operation instructing storage of a medical image displayed on the display, causes the storage to memorize the identified medical image.

  • Publication number: 20210133969
    Abstract: A medical information processing apparatus according to an embodiment includes processing circuitry. The processing circuitry is configured to obtain an image capturing a space in which a manipulation is being performed on an examined subject and non-image information related to at least one of the manipulation, the examined subject, or the space. Also, the processing circuitry is configured to detect a situation having a high possibility for an occurrence of an abnormality in the space, on the basis of the obtained image, the obtained non-image information, and first correspondence information. The first correspondence information indicates a correspondence relationship between two or more images capturing the space, non-image information, and abnormalities having a high possibility of occurring in the space.

  • Publication number: 20170314161
    Abstract: A crucible having a tubular inner surface is prepared. A source material is arranged so as to make contact with the inner surface, and a seed crystal is arranged in the crucible so as to face the source material. A silicon carbide single crystal grows on the seed crystal by sublimation of the source material. The inner surface is formed of a first region surrounding the source material and a second region other than the first region. In the growing a silicon carbide single crystal, an amount of heat per unit area in the first region is smaller than an amount of heat per unit area in the second region.
