  • Patent number: 10824315
    Abstract: A medical image processing apparatus according to a present embodiment includes processing circuitry. The processing circuitry is configured to accept an operation for a region of interest (ROI) GUI and a guide GUI on a screen on which a medical image is displayed, the ROI GUI being for setting a ROI on the medical image, the guide GUI being for guiding a setting of the ROI on the medical image. The processing circuitry is configured to decide whether to move the ROI GUI and the guide GUI in a manner interlocked with each other or not according to a preset condition, when a turning operation or a sliding operation for any one of the ROI GUI and the guide GUI is accepted.

  • Patent number: 10204412
    Abstract: A magnetic resonance imaging apparatus according to an embodiment includes processing circuitry. The processing circuitry generates an image based on a magnetic resonance signal from a subject. The processing circuitry generates a susceptibility image representing magnetic susceptibility of the subject from a phase component contained in a plurality of pixels in the image. The processing circuitry generates an artifact component of the susceptibility image based on a frequency signal obtained by frequency transform of the susceptibility image. The processing circuitry generates an artifact component-removed susceptibility image by removing the artifact component from a susceptibility image generated based on the magnetic resonance signal.

  • Patent number: 10134130
    Abstract: A magnetic-resonance imaging apparatus of an embodiment includes acquiring circuitry and processing circuitry. The acquiring circuitry acquires a magnetic resonance signal that is generated from a subject. The processing circuitry creates a phase image based on the magnetic resonance signal. The processing circuitry sets a combination of a plurality of filters that are used to remove a phase variation derived from a background magnetic field according to a region in the phase image. The processing circuitry removes a phase variation derived from the background magnetic field from the phase image by using the combination of the filters.
