An information acquisition unit acquires a learning image including a disease region and a first teacher label that specifies the disease region included in the learning image. A teacher label generation unit generates at least one second teacher label of which a criterion for specifying the disease region is different from the first teacher label. A learning unit trains a discriminator that detects a disease region included in a target image on the basis of the learning image, the first teacher label, and the at least one second teacher label.

The invention relates to medical equipment, and particularly relates to an integrated X-Ray precision imaging device, which includes a table, a control module, an X-ray emitting device, an X-ray receiving device, and a thickness measuring mechanism. The X-ray emitting device and the X-ray receiving device are arranged on the table, the X-ray emitting device is located above the X-ray receiving device, the thickness measuring mechanism is provided on the X-ray emitting device, the thickness measuring mechanism and the X-ray emitting device. Both are electrically connected to the control module. By setting a measurement mechanism, the invention can accurately measure the body shape of a patient in real time, and control the precise emission amount of X-rays through the body shape data of the patient to ensure that a clear image is obtained, and at the same time, minimize the possibility of the patient being harmed by ionizing radiation.

A device for imaging is used for dynamic imaging that repeatedly generates a plurality of frames and has a hardware processor. The hardware processor acquires rhythm information from a storage for storing the rhythm information that defines a rhythm in order to cause a subject to recognize a start timing, a switch timing, or a stop timing of a predetermined periodic motion and notifies the subject of the rhythm based on the acquired rhythm information at least one of periods before starting generation of a frame and during repeating of the generation of the frame.

Apparatus, techniques and systems are described for facilitating identification of a target area during a probe-guided radio-localization surgical procedure. The described apparatus, techniques and systems can be used to implement a nuclear-uptake mode controller integrated into a probe to allow a user to instantly switch between multiple nuclear-uptake modes directly from the probe hand-piece. For example, a nuclear-uptake mode controller integrated into the probe can be used to instantly switch between a high-sensitivity nuclear uptake mode and a high-resolution nuclear-uptake mode to effectively identify the target area in the presence of interfering nuclear signals by better matching the probe's nuclear detection parameters to a search task for that target area.

A first display control unit displays a first tomographic image of a three-dimensional image consisting of a plurality of tomographic images on a display unit, and superimposes and displays, as a first cross-section correction instruction region, a cross-section of a three-dimensional correction instruction region on the first tomographic image, which is used to correct a boundary of a region of interest extracted from the three-dimensional image, on the first tomographic image. A second display control unit displays at least one second tomographic image adjacent to the first tomographic image, which includes the three-dimensional correction instruction region, on the display unit, and superimposes and displays, as a second cross-section correction instruction region, a cross-section of the three-dimensional correction instruction region on the second tomographic image, on the second tomographic image.

A reference part extracting unit extracts at least one reference part that is common in a first image and a second image, from each of the first image and the second image. A first position information deriving unit derives first position information indicating a relative position of at least one abnormal part specified in the first image, relative to the at least one reference part in the first image. A second position information deriving unit derives second position information indicating a relative position of at least one abnormal part specified in the second image, relative to the at least one reference part in the second image. A matching unit associates, on the basis of a difference between the first position information and the second position information, the abnormal part included in the first image and the abnormal part included in the second image with each other.

Provided are a radiation detector, a radiographic imaging apparatus, and a manufacturing method that include a TFT substrate in which a plurality of pixels that accumulate electric charges generated depending on light converted from radiation are formed in a pixel region of a first surface of a flexible base material and a terminal region of the first surface is provided with a terminal for electrically connecting a flexible cable; a conversion layer that is provided outside the terminal region on the first surface of the base material to convert the radiation into light; a first reinforcing substrate that is provided on a surface of the conversion layer opposite to a surface on a TFT substrate side and has a higher stiffness than the base material; and a second reinforcing substrate that is provided on a second surface of the base material opposite to the first surface to cover a surface larger than the first reinforcing substrate, and that are capable of suppressing that a defect occurs in the substrate and have an excellent peeling property in a reworking process.

In a medical image processing apparatus, a medical image processing method, and a medical image processing program, in a case where there are a plurality of past brain images, it is possible to select a past brain image with which the atrophy rate of the brain can be accurately calculated. An image acquisition unit acquires a target brain image Bt as a diagnostic target and a plurality of past brain images Bpi, which have earlier imaging dates and times than the target brain image Bt, for the same subject. A similarity calculation unit calculates the similarity between each of the plurality of past brain images Bpi and a standard brain image Bs. A selection unit selects a reference brain image B0 serving as a reference for calculating the amount of change of the brain from the plurality of past brain images Bpi.
