Image processing apparatus, image processing method, and recording medium recording same

Abstract

The present invention relates to an image processing apparatus, an image processing method, and a recording medium for recording the same, the image processing apparatus including a storage configured to comprise a standard database (DB) established based on information about a predetermined anatomical entity; and at least one processor configured to obtain a local motion vector by registration between a first medical image and a second medical image taken by scanning an object including the anatomical entity, use a predictive local motion vector generated from the standard DB to normalize the local motion vector according to a plurality of regions in the anatomical entity, and make information about conditions of the anatomical entity based on the normalized local motion vector be provided according to the plurality of regions. By the normalization according to the regions, it is possible to provide distinguishable information about difference between the local motion vector of a pulmonary disease patient to be subjected to a diagnosis and a predictive local motion vector of a normal person generated from the standard DB through the statistical modeling using bio-information of a patient.
