Medical image processing apparatus and medical image processing method
First Claim
1. A medical image processing apparatus comprising:
- a vessel running data generator configured to generate vessel running data of a vessel based on volume data collected by a medical image diagnosis apparatus;
a lesion site detector configured to detect positional information of a lesion site in the vessel based on the volume data;
a vessel dominant region data generator configured to generate vessel dominant region data indicating a region dominated by the vessel in a region provided with nutrition based on the vessel running data;
a lesion site dominant region data generator configured to generate lesion site dominant region data indicating a region dominated by the lesion site in the region provided with nutrition based on the vessel running data and the positional information of the lesion site;
an ischemic region data generator configured to generate ischemic region data indicating an ischemic region in the region provided with nutrition based on the functional image data; and
a diagnostic image data generator configured to generate diagnostic image data by superimposing the vessel dominant region data, the lesion site dominant region data and the ischemic region data on morphological image data or functional image data generated based on the volume data.

Abstract
A medical image processing apparatus includes a vessel running data generating unit, a lesion site detecting unit, a vessel dominant region data generating unit, a lesion site dominant region data generating unit, and a diagnostic image data generating unit. The vessel running data generating unit generates vessel running data of a vessel. The lesion site detecting unit detects positional information of a lesion site in the vessel. The vessel dominant region data generating unit generates vessel dominant region data indicating a region dominated by the vessel in a region provided with nutrition. The lesion site dominant region data generating unit generates lesion site dominant region data indicating a region dominated by the lesion site in the region provided with nutrition. The diagnostic image data generating unit generates diagnostic image data by superimposing the vessel dominant region data and the lesion site dominant region data on morphological image data.

17. A medical image processing method comprising:
-
obtaining volume data collected by a medical image diagnosis apparatus from a storing unit; generating vessel running data of a vessel based on the obtained volume data; detecting positional information of a lesion site in the vessel based on the volume data; generating vessel dominant region data indicating a region dominated by the vessel in a region provided with nutrition based on the vessel running data; generating lesion site dominant region data indicating a region dominated by the lesion site in the region provided with nutrition based on the vessel running data and the positional information of the lesion site; generating diagnostic image data by superimposing the vessel dominant region data and the lesion site dominant region data on morphological image data or functional image data generated based on the volume data; generating ischemic region data indicating an ischemic region in the region provided with nutrition based on the functional image data, wherein the diagnostic image data generating generates the diagnostic image data by superimposing the vessel dominant region data, the lesion site dominant region data and the ischemic region data on the morphological image data or the functional image data; and displaying the diagnostic image data on the display unit. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
