MEDICAL IMAGE DIAGNOSTIC APPARATUS AND METHOD USING LIVER ANGIOGRAPHIC IMAGE, AND PROGRAM

摘要

PPROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To understand a time series variation in signal values of a region of interest in each time phase in detail and effectively based on liver angiographic images obtained at a plurality of time phases in a contrast examination using a contrast agent that reflects a liver blood flow and liver function in an image. PSOLUTION: A region-of-interest setting part 32 sets a region of interest in the liver positionally corresponding to each of liver angiopgraphic images between each time phase. A local image generation part 34 generates local sectional images representing an area of interest for each time phase based on each of liver angiographic images in each time phase. A display control part 36 causes the generated local sectional image for each time phase to be displayed in a comparative readable mode. PCOPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT
