Operating portion 9 is connected with systems control division 8.The user interface 14 with hand switch 12, display and touch screen etc. is set at operating portion 9.
Fig. 2 is the flow chart of basic treatment step of the present embodiment.As shown in this flow chart, image operation/storage part 10 pairs of radioscopic image real-time image processings, and from radioscopic image, extract the end points of angiosomes and the end points (step S61, S62) of catheter area.That is, the position coordinates of the end points of angiosomes, the position coordinates with the end points of catheter area is extracted.
Then, the position coordinates of the position coordinates of the end points of angiosomes and the end points of catheter area compares by image operation/storage part 10, resolves the position relationship (step S63) of angiosomes and catheter area.Specifically, image operation/storage part 10 utilizes the centrage of angiosomes, determines the point on the angiosomes that the end points of distance catheter area is nearest.That is, on angiosomes, the end points (hereinafter referred to as conduit end points) of catheter area is determined.Further, the position setting ROI(step S64 of image operation/storage part 10 on the angiosomes of the distance certain apart from the conduit end points on angiosomes).
Fig. 3 is the flow chart representing the detailed treatment step that embodiment relates to.In the step ST1 of Fig. 3, image operation/storage part 10 to read before the radiography prestored frame 2b in frame 2a and radiography.Before radiography, frame 2a is when catheter manipulation, the blood vessel of subject is carried out the radioscopic image of making a video recording before injecting contrast agent.Before radiography, frame 2a comprises catheter area, does not comprise angiosomes.In addition, before radiography, frame 2a is outside catheter area, also includes the background of bony areas etc.In radiography, frame 2b is when catheter manipulation, by being thrown in the radioscopic image that the moment of blood vessel being carried out radiography to the contrast agent of subject carries out making a video recording.In radiography, frame 2b includes catheter area and angiosomes.In addition, even if before radiography in frame 2b, outside catheter area and angiosomes, also include the backgrounds such as bony areas.In step ST2, image operation/storage part 10 extracts catheter area from frame 2a before radiography.Thus, such as, the bianry image 2c with catheter area is extracted as foreground area.Image operation/storage part 10 extracts catheter area and angiosomes in frame 2b from radiography.Thus, such as, the bianry image 2d with catheter area and angiosomes is extracted as foreground area.
That is, in embodiments, the frame 2a that blood vessel of subject do not carried out radiography is used to carry out image procossing with the frame 2b by contrast agent blood vessel being carried out radiography.Frame 2a, 2b include catheter area.
In step ST3, image operation/storage part 10 implements template matching for template to bianry image 2d with bianry image 2c, determines catheter area, and remove determined catheter area from bianry image 2d from bianry image 2d.Specifically, this bianry image 2c and bianry image 2d, compares for template with bianry image 2c by image operation/storage part 10.Image operation/storage part 10 according to the two value ratio between each pixel of two bianry images compared with result, evaluate the degree with the phase cross-correlation of bianry image 2c.Image operation/storage part 10, according to the degree of phase cross-correlation, determines the catheter area that bianry image 2d comprises.Above process is called that conduit mates.By this process, can separate and determine the catheter area that bianry image 2d comprises and vasculature part.Further, determined catheter area removes by image operation/storage part 10 from bianry image 2d, and generates the bianry image 2e eliminating catheter area.Bianry image 2e includes the angiosomes from frame 2b in radiography.
In step ST4, image operation/storage part 10, respectively for the bianry image 2c of angiosomes and the bianry image 2e of catheter area, implements Thinning process.By Thinning process, generate the graph thinning image 2f of the centrage representing angiosomes according to bianry image 2c, and generate the graph thinning image 2g of the centrage representing catheter area according to bianry image 2e.
