An image processing apparatus supports detection of pathological change over time in portion of a captured region commonly included in a first image and a second image, the first image and the second image acquired by capturing a subject at different respective times. The image processing apparatus includes an acquisition unit configured to acquire a subtraction image of the first image and the second image representing the pathological change over time as a difference and a recording unit configured to record information indicating said portion using a name different from a name of the commonly included region in a storage unit in association with the subtraction image.

Image processing apparatus, method, and storage medium for enabling user to REC0GNT7E change over time represented by substraction image

A medical report creation apparatus and method includes creating a medical report including a plurality of sets of information that is the object of diagnosis and association information indicating associations among a plurality of items included in each of the plurality of sets of information, specifying one item out of a plurality of items included in each of a plurality of sets of information included in a previously created medical report, identifying, based on association information by which the specified one item is associated, at least one item of the plurality of items included in the previously created medical report in response to specifying the one item, and displaying the at least one identified item for editing the medical report.

Apparatus, method, system, and program for creating and displaying medical reports

A diagnosis support apparatus which supports diagnosis based on information associated with a diagnosis name in advance is provided. In the diagnosis support apparatus, an acquisition unit acquires the diagnosis name set by a user. A providing unit provides negative information for the diagnosis name set by the user based on the information. With the above arrangement, the diagnosis support apparatus selects and presents information influencing the diagnosis name expected by the user, thereby efficiently presenting information required by the user.

Diagnosis support apparatus and method of controlling the same

An information processing apparatus includes an acquisition unit that acquires, in a medical image, a first region and a second region different from the first region, a limiting unit that limits extracting a third region, connecting the first region and the second region, within a range including an extraction direction determined based on the first region; and an extraction unit that extracts the third region within the range limited by the limiting unit.

Information processing apparatus, extraction method, and medium

An image diagnosis assistance apparatus displays, on a display screen, a tomographic image obtained from a three-dimensional medical image, and detects a gaze position of a user on the display screen. The image diagnosis assistance apparatus determines an observed region in the tomographic image based on the detected gaze position, and identifies the observed region in the three-dimensional medical image based on the region determined to have been observed in the tomographic image.

Image diagnosis assistance apparatus, control method thereof, and program

A medical image display apparatus which displays, in a display screen, a display image having undergone gray level transform of changing number of gray levels of a medical image, obtains a representative value of pixel values concerning a region of a block, in the medical image, which corresponds to each partial region in a region designated in the display image. The medical image display apparatus sets a specific region in the display screen so as to include the designated region, and superimposes/displays and arranges obtained representative values on the specific region in correspondence with the arrangement of the partial regions.

Medical image display apparatus and control method therefor

A diagnosis support system obtains input information corresponding to a case, identifies a diagnosis corresponding to the case based on the input information, obtains the inference probability of the diagnosis, and displays supporting information corresponding to the inference probability of the identified diagnosis on a display unit.
