Image processing apparatus and method
First Claim
1. An image processing apparatus comprising:
- a) irradiating means for irradiating an energetic ray onto an object to be examined;
b) image pickup means including a plurality of pixels arranged in a two-dimensional form, said image pickup means for converting an image corresponding to the energetic ray transmitted through the object into an optical image and picking up or acquiring image information corresponding to the optical image;
c) driving means for scanning the plurality of pixels in an n-row (n is a natural number) interlaced scan; and
d) image processing means for performing image processing on the acquired image information, whereinsaid image processing means includes a first mode for performing moving image processing using image data of a plurality of frames obtained from the scanning of said driving means to obtain moving image data and a second mode for synthesizing the moving image data obtained in the first mode and performing still image processing using the synthesized moving image data obtained from the synthesizing, andsaid image processing means performs the still image processing in parallel with the moving image processing.

Abstract
An image processing apparatus is constructed of an irradiating unit for irradiating a energetic ray to an object to be examined, a detecting unit constructed of 2-dimensional image pickup devices for converting a transmission image transmitted through the object into an optical image and picking up the optical image, a driving unit for driving the 2-dimensional image pickup devices of the detecting unit in an n-row (n is a natural number) interlaced scan, and an image display unit for displaying image data obtained by the driving of the driving unit, wherein the image display unit has a first display mode for displaying an image for all the image data obtained by the driving of the driving unit and a second display mode for forming and displaying an image of one frame by using the image data of a plurality of frames obtained by the driving of the driving unit.
