Patent Images
1. An image processing device which emphasizes a specific region in a pathological stained image, comprising:
- a dye concentration image generating module which decomposes the pathological stained image into dye concentration images of respective staining dyes; and
a dye concentration image correcting module which performs image processing for emphasizing the specific region by using each of the dye concentration images,wherein the dye concentration image correcting module corrects each of the dye concentration images by correlating dye information of the respective staining dyes.

Abstract
An image processing device and an image processing method capable of clarifying a specific region, especially a stained region of the cell nucleus, by correcting in consideration of overlap of staining, thereby making discrimination easy, and a pathological diagnosis assistance system using the same are provided. A pathological stained image is decomposed into dye concentration images of respective dyes, dye information on the respective staining dyes are correlated, and the respective dye concentration images are corrected to emphasize a specific region.
