摘要

PURPOSE: A computer aided processing method is provided to identify bone fractures, disease, obstruction, or other medical condition. CONSTITUTION: A computer aided processing method comprises a step of using a data source(210) including a dual or multiple energy image set(215) having a high energy image(216), a low energy image(217), a bone image(218), and a soft tissue image(219); a step of defining a region of interest(220) in one of the dual or multiple energy image set; a step(230) of extracting characteristic measurements from the region of interest; and a step(260) of reporting at least one of characteristic measurements on the region of interest.
