A medical information processing apparatus comprises processing circuitry. The processing circuitry calculates a functional rate quantitively indicating a degree as to whether or not a body site related to a symptom of a target patient is properly functioning. The processing circuitry calculates a current state of the target patient as a first state. The processing circuitry estimates, with reference to time-series second medical information having a tendency similar to the first medical information and being related to a similar patient, a likelihood that the state of the target patient may be exacerbated at a future time as a second state, on a basis of a functional rate of the similar patient calculated from a selected part of the second medical information corresponding to time since the similarity to the first medical information was recognized. The processing circuitry causes the first state and the second state to be displayed.

Medical information processing apparatus

A medical image processing apparatus according to an embodiment is a medical image processing apparatus that generates image data to be used in a trained model trained with image data acquired by a second apparatus, from image data acquired by a first apparatus and that includes a first obtaining unit and a first generating unit. The first obtaining unit is configured to obtain first patient image data obtained by the first apparatus by imaging a patient. The first generating unit is configured to generate, by using a first generative model and from the first patient image data, intermediate image data in which a characteristic of first image data acquired by the first apparatus has been deleted and is configured to generate, by using a second generative model and from the intermediate image data, second patient image data having a characteristic of second image data acquired by the second apparatus.

Medical image processing apparatus and medical image processing system

The image processing apparatus comprises: an original image acquisition section configured to acquire the original image of an object; a parametric image acquisition section configured to acquire a parametric image corresponding to the original image; and an optical attribute value determination section configured to determine, based on the data value of a pixel of the original image and the parameter value of a corresponding pixel in the parametric image, optical attribute values for presenting the pixel of the original image according to a predetermined correspondence.

Image processing apparatus, image processing method and medical imaging device

According to one embodiment, a three-dimensional image processing apparatus includes at least a storage, an inputting unit, an image generating unit and a pointer controlling unit. The storage stores volume data of a target. The inputting unit receives an input operation for moving a pointer. The image generating unit generates a superimposed image in which a rendering image generated by performing a rendering process on the volume data and a pointer image are superimposed in consideration of information of depth. The pointer controlling unit obtains information of a three-dimensional position of the pointer. When the pointer is on the rendering image, the pointer controlling unit moves the pointer along a three-dimensional surface of a target contained in the volume data.

Three-dimensional image processing apparatus

A differential-image creating unit creates a three-dimensional image on which an artery is highlighted and a three-dimensional image on which a tumor is highlighted. An image compositing unit combines the three-dimensional images to composite an image. A display control unit displays the composite image on a monitor. Moreover, when compositing an image, the image compositing unit composites the image such that a tumor nutrient blood-flow inside and outside tumor is to be displayed in respective different colors. Furthermore, a blood-flow quantity inside tumor measuring unit calculates a blood-flow quantity inside tumor and a ratio of the blood-flow quantity inside tumor to a tumor volume, and the display control unit displays the blood-flow quantity inside tumor and the ratio of the blood-flow quantity inside tumor to the tumor volume. Accordingly, information that is meaningful for determining malignancy of a tumor can be provided.

A cardiac cavity region specifying part specifies the position of a cardiac cavity region represented in volume data. An image generation plane determining part determines an image generation plane that includes a rotation axis intersecting the cardiac cavity region. With a direction orthogonal to the image generation plane as a view direction, a first image generator generates three-dimensional image data that three-dimensionally represents a region excluding the cardiac cavity region, based on data excluding data included in the cardiac cavity of the volume data. A second image generator generates two-dimensional image data that two-dimensionally represents a region in the image generation plane, based on the data excluding the data included in the cardiac cavity region of the volume data. An image synthesizer synthesizes the three-dimensional image data with the two-dimensional image data. A display controller causes a display to display the synthesized image.

A storage medium processing system includes a radio card, having a data storing function, for reading/writing data by a radio system, a read antenna for transmitting data read request signal to the radio card and for receiving read data, a processing means, having a processing queue area for registering write data in a memory area, for checking the data received from the read antenna and editing the write data, and a write antenna for transmitting the write data to the radio card and receiving write result data. Even when an order of vehicles entering into the booth, i.e., a reception order of vehicle data is not equal to an order to vehicles leaving the booth, i.e., a reception order of processed data, a process of writing the processed data into the radio card can be effected reliably and without omission.
