  • Medical image processing apparatus, medical image diagnostic apparatus, and medical image processing method for image-guided endocardial navigation
    Patent number: 11331147
    Abstract: A medical image processing apparatus according to an embodiment comprises processing circuitry configured to: acquire a position of an interatrial septum and a device reaching position in a medical image indicating the heart of a subject; calculate a puncturing region, in the interatrial septum, enabling a medical device to reach the device reaching position through the interatrial septum on the basis of the position of the interatrial septum and the device reaching position; and present the puncturing region.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 28, 2018
    Date of Patent: May 17, 2022
    Assignee: CANON MEDICAL SYSTEMS CORPORATION

  • Medical image diagnostic apparatus, medical image processing apparatus and non-transitory computer readable medium on which medical image processing program has been stored
    Patent number: 10542950
    Abstract: The medical image diagnostic apparatus according to an embodiment includes processing circuitry. The processing circuitry is configured to: generate medical volume data including bones and an organ; identify, based on the volume data, the organ and an abnormal bone having an abnormal region of the bones; calculate, based on the organ and the abnormal bone of the volume data, an influence rate on the organ by the abnormal bone; and superimpose data indicating the influence rate on the image based on the volume data, thereby displaying the superimposed image on a display.
