An X-ray image processing apparatus of an embodiment includes processing circuitry. The processing circuitry acquires fluoroscopy-related information indicating at least one of a fluoroscopic image and a condition for collecting the fluoroscopic image. The processing circuitry evaluates the image quality of the fluoroscopic image based on the fluoroscopy-related information. The processing circuitry outputs identification information identifying whether to save the fluoroscopic image based on the evaluation result.

An X-ray diagnosis apparatus includes an X-ray limiter having four diaphragm blades and a console on which four physical operating units that correspond to the four diaphragm blades are placed at four positions. When viewed from the side of the operator of the console, the four operating units are placed on the far side, the near side, the left side, and the right side. The far-side operating unit, the near-side operating unit, the left-side operating unit, and the right-side operating unit correspond to the upper diaphragm blade, the lower diaphragm blade, the left-side diaphragm blade, and the right-side diaphragm blade, respectively, with reference to an X-ray image displayed in a display.

A method may include identifying a simulated three-dimensional representation corresponding to an internal anatomy of a subject based on a match between a computed two-dimensional image corresponding to the simulated three-dimensional representation and a two-dimensional image depicting the internal anatomy of the subject. Simulations of the electrical activities measured by a recording device with standard lead placement and nonstandard lead placement may be computed based on the simulated three-dimensional representation. A clinical electrogram and/or a clinical vectorgram for the subject may be corrected based on a difference between the simulations of electrical activities to account for deviations arising from patient-specific lead placement as well as variations in subject anatomy and pathophysiology.

A method, performed by a mobile X-ray detector, of processing an X-ray image, including generating the X-ray image of an object by detecting an X-ray transmitted through the object and converting the detected X-ray into an electrical signal; detecting a power supply stoppage which prevents transmission of the generated X-ray image from the mobile X-ray detector to a workstation; based on the detecting of the power supply stoppage, storing the X-ray image in a nonvolatile memory inside the mobile X-ray detector; and after storing the X-ray image, deactivating the mobile X-ray detector.

Systems and methods for determining an image type are disclosed. A user interface includes a visual representation of a breast and a visual representation of a medical imaging system. The visual representation of the medical imaging system includes a visual representation of a detector and either a source or a compression paddle. The visual representation of the medical imaging system may be rotatable and positionable relative to the visual representation of the breast. Based on the relative position and orientation of the visual representation of the medical imaging system relative to the visual representation of the breast, an image type is determined. The image type may be displayed at the user interface.

A radiographic imaging system includes a radiographic detector programmed to display the patient identifying information in human readable form and to access information about the patient stored in locations accessible through a network. Embodiments of methods and/or apparatus for a radiographic imaging system can include a radiographic detector including an image receptor to receive incident radiation and generate uncorrected electronic image data; network accessible storage and/or processor to generate calibration-corrected image data from the uncorrected electronic image data provided from the detector. The calibration-corrected image data can be further processed by the network accessible processor before transmitting a corrected image (e.g., DICOM image) back to the radiographic imaging system.
