Because CT equipment can carry out clearly imaging to the region of anatomy of human body, understand so the region of anatomy of doctor to human body can be allowed to have sense organ clearly, thus good assosting effect is served to diagnosis and disease therapy, current CT equipment has been widely used in medical diagnosis and treatment field.
Radiologic technologist is when checking region of interest area image by image viewer, in order to further check anatomical detail, usually need transformation space resolution (plane spatial resolution), normally will check the image of the area-of-interest with high spatial resolution.Current image viewer only has Zoomin/out(zoom in/out) function (Zoomin/out instrument), as shown in Figure 1, when user selects Zoomin/out instrument, this Zoomin/out function is just carried out filler pixels by modes such as rough interpolation/merging and is carried out image reconstruction, this Zoomin/out function can not rebuild image from raw scanning data, so the definition of the reconstruction image obtained is limited, the anatomical detail that can view is limited too.
Function that current image viewer also exists " image amplifier (ImageMagnifier) " transfers each several part on giant-screen in the control of cursor of mouse, it provides various amplified filter to show image in detail, such as DesktopMagnifierforWindows.But these are all pure post processing of image instruments up to now.
" Microsoftsliverlight " platform exists " amplification of the DeepZoom(degree of depth) " function.One is made up of JPEG or the PNG image sheet being in different resolution through degree of depth enlarged image.Picture size typically is 256 × 256, but this size also can be revised.Every sheet is stored in an independent file, and pyramidal every grade is stored in an independent file, and this makes the degree of depth amplify those sheets required for image that only can obtain current size on screen, and can not download whole complete image.Such as, if will amplify to check mid portion highlighted in image, the degree of depth is amplified can only be loaded into highlighted sheet instead of whole 1024 × 1024 images.
As everyone knows, in order to check the anatomical structure of more high spatial resolution, the sampled distance between image pixel must be reduced.The sampled distance reduced between image pixel can be rebuild image array size by increasing or rebuild FOV(FieldofView, the visual field by reduction) reach.
Increase reconstruction image array size and not only affect reconstruction speed, but also increase memory space.Therefore, the CT equipment of current General Electric, when considering reconstruction performance, provides the image of 512 × 512 sizes.
If radiologic technologist is wanted to check more detailed anatomical structure, current common way is switched to original data-centric from image viewer, select initial data and rebuild after carrying out image by the reconstructed center wanted and reconstruction regions, after having rebuild after image, more again switch back image viewer to check the new image rebuild.But the reconstruction parameter that often can there is reconstructed center and reconstruction regions and so on sets undesirable situation, so just need again to be switched to original data-centric from image viewer again.In order to obtain desirable image, being switched to the rear image reconstruction of original data-centric-carry out-switch back image viewer from image viewer usually needs to carry out several times, very inconvenient.

When have selected area-of-interest and click described target zoom in/out instrument, reconstruction request with reconstruction parameter is sent to background processor, carries out image reconstruction and return to described image viewer to show in described image viewer by rebuilding the image obtained by described background processor according to described reconstruction parameter.
From the above, when have selected area-of-interest and click Targetin/out, the new reconstruction request with reconstruction parameter will be sent to background processor, rebuild according to received reconstruction parameter by background processor, that is, this programme rebuilds image based on initial data and new reconstruction parameter, instead of utilize the methods such as interpolation/merging to process original image, can be more clear than existing image viewer when therefore adopting this programme will check the image of higher spatial resolution.
In addition, compared to all wanting user to be switched to original data-centric from image viewer at every turn, efficiency higher and also use very convenient.
Described reconstruction parameter comprises reconstructed center and rebuilds the visual field (DFOV).According to reconstructed center and the reconstruction visual field, the known method for reconstructing of any one can be adopted to rebuild image based on initial data, do not repeat them here about method for reconstructing.
For the determination of reconstructed center, can according to following:
If selected area-of-interest is consistent with the image-region of the current display of described image viewer, then current reconstructed center is set to the described reconstructed center needing to carry out image reconstruction; Otherwise current mouse click location is set to the described reconstructed center needing to carry out image reconstruction.
Wherein, if selected area-of-interest is consistent with the image-region of the current display of described image viewer, that is, area-of-interest need not be specified in addition again, current display be area-of-interest, like this, the value of current reconstructed center is put into position corresponding to new reconstruction request reconstructed center.If the image-region of selected area-of-interest and the current display of described image viewer is inconsistent, that is define area-of-interest in addition, so just current mouse click location is set to new reconstructed center.
For the determination of DFOV, can according to following:
The described reconstruction visual field=current reconstruction visual field +/-rebuilds visual field step-length (DFOVstep);
If target amplifies (Targetin), should be:
The current DFOV-DFOVstep of DFOV=
If shrinking of object (Targetout), should be:
The current DFOV+DFOVstep of DFOV=
Roll before mouse and represent that target is amplified, after mouse, roll expression shrinking of object.
Each click or mouse rollovers can generate a new reconstruction request.
Rebuild the changing value rebuilding the visual field when visual field step-length refers to each reconstruction, it can be set according to use habit by user.
In addition, mouse roller rolling once or on keyboard, shortcut (hotkey) is pressed is once a reconstruction visual field step-length.On keyboard, namely shortcut is similar to the key of pageup/pagedown.For example, on keyboard, certain pair of keys just corresponds to targetin/out.Often roll by being once similar to roller.
In addition, the admissible maximum reconstruction visual field equals scan vision.
New images can be stored in after background processor completes image reconstruction in image data base and to be labeled as the rear reconstruction image of current execution, meanwhile, new images also returns and in image viewer, shows to image viewer replace image viewer shows present image in real time by background processor.
