A tomographic image processing apparatus including a display, an input interface configured to receive an external input, a storage storing an input tomographic image of an object, and at least one processor configured to control the display to display the input tomographic image, determine a material combination to be separated from the input tomographic image, and control the display to display material separation information corresponding to the determined material combination for a region of interest selected in the input tomographic image based on the external input. The input tomographic image is a spectral tomographic image having a plurality of tomographic images respectively corresponding to a plurality of energy levels.

Tomographic image processing apparatus and method of separating material of object in spectral tomographic image, and computer program product

An X-ray apparatus includes an X-ray source configured to radiate X-rays onto an object, an X-ray detector configured to detect X-rays having penetrated through the object among the radiated X-rays and obtain pieces of raw data of different energy bands based on the detected X-rays, a raw image obtainer configured to obtain raw images in which different materials constituting the object are enhanced using the pieces of raw data, and an image processor configured to process the raw images and generate an X-ray image of the object based on the processed raw images.

X-ray apparatus and method of controlling the same

An X-ray imaging apparatus is provided. The X-ray imaging apparatus includes an X-ray source configured for irradiating X-rays to a subject; a filtering unit configured for controlling a dose of X-rays irradiated to the subject; and a processor configured for distinguishing and setting up an uninterested region in an X-ray image obtained based in the irradiated X-rays, and for controlling the filtering unit to set a dose of X-rays irradiated into the uninterested region.

X-ray imaging apparatus and method for controlling the same

An X-ray imaging apparatus includes an image separator configured to extract a first tissue image having a small amount of motion of a tissue, the small amount of motion being smaller than a threshold amount of motion, and to extract a second tissue image with a large amount of motion of a tissue, the large amount of motion being larger than the small amount of motion, from a plurality of image frames, and an image processor configured to correct the second tissue image according to the large amount of motion of the tissue.

X-ray imaging apparatus and control method for separating tissue images

Disclosed herein are an X-ray imaging apparatus and a method for the same. The X-ray imaging apparatus includes a kernel function setter configured to set a scatter kernel function in response to a scatter component included in first X-ray image data detected by an X-ray detector, and an image data corrector configured to generate second X-ray image data obtained by performing scatter correction on the first X-ray image data using the scatter kernel function and data consistency. According to the X-ray imaging apparatus and the control method for the same, scatter correction is performed by using data consistency so that accuracy of the scatter correction may be increased and an X-ray image may be generated based on the accuracy, thereby improving quality of the X-ray image.
