  • Patent number: 10789674
    Abstract: An image processing module and related method. The module (IP) comprises—one or more input interfaces (IN) configured for receiving i) a first input image (II) acquired of an object by an imaging apparatus (IM) at a first geometrical configuration of the X-ray imaging apparatus and ii) a specification of a change from said first geometrical configuration to a second geometrical configuration of the imaging apparatus. An upsampler component (US) of the module (IP) computes a new image (I+) of the object (OB) by applying a geometrical transformation to said first input image. The geometrical transformation corresponds to said change in geometrical configuration of the imaging apparatus.

  • Patent number: 10546367
    Abstract: A method of medical image processing is presented. The method proposes to apply different noise filtering algorithms to an input image, so as to yield a plurality of output images based on the same input image. The output images may be displayed at a higher frame rate than the input frame rate, which leads to a perception by a user of reduced noise in the images. Additionally, the motion fluency of the images may appear to be improved.

  • Patent number: 10483009
    Abstract: The present invention presents a beam shaper for radiation imaging comprising a hollow beam shaper body filled with radiation attenuating gas. Radiation attenuation can be changed by adding or removing pressure to the gas or the housing containing the gas, making it suitable for use as a dynamic beam shaper in 3D radiation imaging.
