Description

Image vision-control equipment, image vision-control method and display
Technical field
The application is generally related to show the image that the display parameters of two dimensional image, particularly medical image are adjusted and adjusted Section equipment, image vision-control method and display.
Background technology
Each pixel needs of high-order difference image (high bit level image) are with multiple bits such as 12 or 16 or more Many bits represent, therefore a total of cannot show more than 4096 gray levels and in regular display.For example, medical image (Such as x-ray image, CT images etc.)Typically high-order difference image, if representing a pixel with 12 bits, tonal range is from 0 To 4095.Comparatively, regular display represents a pixel with 8 bits, therefore tonal range is from 0 to 255, therefore common The low level difference image (low bit level image) that is represented with 8 bits can be presented on display device but can not present completely High potential difference medical image as described above, the X-ray picture presented in regular display as shown in Figure 1.This cannot almost expire Foot focuses on the demand of specific physiological structure such as lung.
During diagnosing, the specific physiological structure in order to focus on medical image usually needs to adjust over the display The display parameters of image are saved, the purpose of specific physiological structure is protruded to reach picture superposition or decrease.To be adjusted The display parameters of section can include window width and window position for example in the case of linear regulation.By taking CT images as an example, window width be for Certain CT value scope such as 256-600 of CT images is shown, the size of this scope is also referred to as greylevel window, and CT values fall in this CT Structure in the range of value is shown with corresponding gray scale.CT values are higher than the structure of this scope, with white displays;Conversely, CT values are less than the structure of this scope, with black display.Window width can influence the contrast that image shows, window width is wider, each knot Gray scale difference between structure is smaller and contrast declines;Otherwise then contrast increase.Window position is the central value of the CT value scopes. Window position can influence the brightness that image shows, if the difference of window position, then the display brightness of same window width is also different.
Therefore, good window width not only wants the sufficiently wide tonal range to cover the anatomical detail of specific physiological structure, But also want sufficiently narrow to provide the significant difference and sharp keen contrast on anatomical detail.Good window potential energy enough provides vision Upper appropriate brightness.Depending on structure to be focussed, the setting of these parameters also can greatly change.When user expects to watch During the details of ad hoc structure, usually do not know which kind of parameter setting could provide best visual effect, therefore will generally lead to Cross substantial amounts of trial and error be adjusted obtaining medical image preferable display result and efficiency be undoubtedly it is low.
In order to improve the efficiency of image vision-control, many methods are had been presented for.
In general adjusting method, user manually changes parameter value by input or mouse action, while in real time Image obtained by viewing.Although can draw how gradation conversion function is adjusted as auxiliary visible results and providing a user with Some clues, but it does not provide any instruction to specific physiological structure to the mapping between visual tonal range, and And therefore need lot of experiments to find the appropriate gray shade level scope for object construction.
In the method based on region of interest (ROI, region of interest), select sense emerging from high-order difference image Interesting area, and then calculate the greylevel window narrowed for the tonal range around the region.Although the method has automation Aspect, but the method based on ROI is spatial coherence, rather than gray scale be concerned with, that is to say, that the region of interest is easy to Including unrelated nonspecific physiological structure, so as to disturb the accurate calculating of the greylevel window for specific physiological structure.
Another method is that high-order difference image is rendered as three dimensional representation, sightless in regular display to provide More details.But for medical application, two-dimensional medical images are more convenient and are easier to search for, therefore still need as far as possible Efficiently obtain the two-dimensional representation of optimization.
For example, United States Patent (USP) discloses US7283654B2 gives a kind of tissue or organ for watching in medical image Method, which provide for intensity relevant feature tissue or organ amplitude enhancing image, with cause and do not have The two dimensional image that having amplitude strengthens analysis is compared, and these tissues or organ are easier to distinguish for human eye.In the method, for Some tissues or organ provide three dimensional representation(Amplitude enhancing analysis)But, the purpose is to provide more easily distinguishing for medical image The enhancing visual effect of other tissue or organ, i.e. medical image, and be easy to adjust image display parameters(Such as window width and Window position etc.)Wide of the mark.Additionally, the not actual physical structure that the enhanced 3-D view of amplitude is reacted, but image color Structure.Due to knowledge or custom, what doctor finally to be seen is two dimensional image and not 3-D view and is therefore still needed to The tradition regulation to be shown to accurate two dimensional image.
United States Patent (USP) discloses US7516417B2 and discloses a kind of user interface, which provides multiple selectable icons, Each icon includes representing the gray scale patch of the value that window width and window position are set.User only needs the button for selecting to specify, just will be from Window width and the regulation of window position dynamicly are arrived the designated value related to button.Although the user interface be repeated several times every time regulation one The operation of parameter value is compared and makes improvement in efficiency and aspect directly perceived, but in the method, the display parameters of window width and window position To quantity be limited, and the quantity for therefore adjusting be also it is limited and discrete, this cause cannot be applied to Finer regulation.Additionally, according to the document, the doctor of mapping between gray scale and anatomical detail is lacked experience or is unfamiliar with still It is difficult to which button determination will select, so as to also to perform trial and error process.

The block diagram of the image vision-control equipment 200 of the first embodiment according to the application is described referring to Fig. 2.
Image vision-control equipment 200 can include that input unit 201, three-dimensional scenic display device 202, display parameters set Put device 203 and 2-dimensional image display device 204.
Input unit 201 is configured as receiving the input of high-order difference image.High-order difference image is compared using multiple as previously described Spy represents a pixel and therefore its tonal range is typically much deeper than 256.Typically, medical image, such as x-ray image, CT Image etc. belongs to high-order difference image.For example, the tonal range of CT images can be from -1024 to 1024, and other medical science figures As can even have the tonal range more than 4096.Below for simplicity, will be illustrated by taking medical image as an example, but this is simultaneously Non-limiting, the principle of the application is equally applicable to the high-order difference image in other fields, and as described subsequently, the application can be applied In optical inspection field.
According to one embodiment, can select what is be input into from the high-order difference image being stored in advance in main frame by user Image, this can be realized by manipulating such as select button and dialog box etc..
According to another embodiment, set for forming the radiograph of high-order difference image from that can be connected with display Standby or CT equipment directly inputs high-order difference image.
According to another embodiment, high-order difference image can be input into from remote server by network.
These are also only exemplary description, and and non-limiting.Any other image input mode can be used.
Three-dimensional scenic display device 202 is configured as showing three-dimensional scenic, and the three-dimensional scenic is included according to being input into The threedimensional model of high potential difference image creation and at least two planes for the threedimensional model.
Generally, the high-order difference image of input can be two-dimentional and can the position comprising each pixel and gray scale Value, these positions and gray value can be for example stored in the file related to the image.For example, obtained after CT scan DICOM(Digitized video and communication standard)The gray value of the image of form is relatively-stationary.Created using three-dimensional system of coordinate In the case of threedimensional model corresponding with high-order difference image, x, y-coordinate can be used to represent the location of pixels in high-order difference image, Z coordinate can be used to represent the gray value of respective pixel.Represented with z coordinate by the gray value of each pixel, can created The threedimensional model for being easy to observe corresponding with high-order difference image.
In addition to threedimensional model, at least two planes can also be included in three-dimensional scenic.These planes are vertical with z-axis simultaneously And for the threedimensional model.Especially, these planes can be operated in response to user and moved so as to pass through three-dimensional mould along z-axis The each several part of type.
Fig. 3 A and Fig. 3 B show a front view for three-dimensional scenic of such establishment and the side view of certain angle.From just In view 3A, it can clearly be seen that the position relationship between plane and threedimensional model.Preferably, as shown in Figure 3A, by not Represented with opacity or different colours threedimensional model between plane, downwards overflow lower plane, upwards overflow on plane Anatomical detail.From side view 3B, it may be clearly seen that 3-D effect.Comparatively, convex portion represents larger gray value, Corresponding to the part that brightness in high-order difference image is larger;Recess represents less gray value, corresponding to brightness in high-order difference image Less part.Therefore, when coming along z-axis at least one plane of continuous moving in response to user's operation, the plane with it is three-dimensional The different piece of model is intersecting and allows intuitively to recognize clamp between two planes corresponding with different anatomic details Three-dimensional scope.
Although it should be noted that not shown, with the movement of plane, can be in the current z of appropriate region display plane Axial coordinate, so as to more be visually known its position.
Although additionally, only exemplified two planes in Fig. 3 A and 3B, this is simultaneously non-limiting, can show as needed more Multiple planes and also can set color or number to make a distinction for these planes, it is preferable that these planes have and three The visibly different color of dimension module or transparency.Further, the size of these planes is also only example, if be easy to operation and Observation, size can arbitrarily be set.Similarly, the shape of plane is also only example, as long as being easy to operate and observing, or Circular or parallelogram etc..
Display parameters set device 203 and are configured as according to for changing at least one plane position in the z-axis direction User's operation display parameters are correspondingly set.
According to one embodiment, user operation can be that to drag at least one in the z-axis direction in the three-dimensional model flat The operation in face.For example, user can choose a plane with mouse, and then continuously dragging this along z-axis by mouse puts down Face passes through threedimensional model.Or, user first can choose a plane with mouse, then come by the direction key of QWERTY keyboard The plane is manipulated to move along the z-axis direction.
According to another embodiment, user's operation can be pre- on 2-dimensional image display device described below 204 Fixed operation.For example, user can press left mouse button and be slidable in the vertical direction on 2-dimensional image display device 204, This corresponds to the instruction for increasing or reducing contrast.Or, user can press left mouse button and slide in left-right direction, and this is right Should be in the instruction for increasing or reducing brightness.According to these instructions, three-dimensional scenic display device 202 can make the aobvious of at least one plane Show that position changes.
In fact, user's operation is not limited to above-mentioned example, it is possible to use the behaviour of any z-axis position for allowing to change plane Make, such as user input z-axis coordinate value.Preferably, using mouse, directly continuously the operation of dragging plane is allowed intuitively rapidly Plane positioning in target location.
Described in detail referring to Fig. 4 A-4B and correspondingly set aobvious according to these users operation in one embodiment Show the process of parameter.
Three-dimensional scenic shown in Fig. 4 A includes threedimensional model and two planes, and wherein the two planes have passed through user Operation adjustment is substantially to clamp the scope corresponding with specific anatomical structure such as lung.
Fig. 4 B show the position according to the two planes to set the concept map of display parameters.In figure 4b, GHRepresent The gray scale of the high potential difference medical image of input, its scope is from 0 to 4095.GTThe gray scale shown in regular display is represented, its Scope is from 0 to 255.Two dotted line shows schematically two planes, its coordinate perpendicular to the gray value for representing high-order difference image Axle GH(Corresponding to the z-axis in three-dimensional scenic).
The scope clamped by the plane after user's operation regulation defines a tonal range, and its width is WDAnd in Centre position is WL.Preferably, WDAnd WLValue appropriate region in three-dimensional scenic can be displayed on moving for plane. According to mathematical principle, it is not difficult to find out from figure, the position of the two planes can limit following linear function:
GT=a × GH+ b, if WL-WD/2<GH<WL+ WD/2;
And
GT=0, if GH<WL-WD/2;
GT=255, if GH>WL+WD/2;
The value of wherein a and b can basis(WL-WD/ 2,0)With(WL+ WD/ 2,255)The value of the two points is uniquely determined.When After the linear function is determined, it is possible to current gray level scope WDInterior gray value is mapped to one by one according to the linear function Shown on the tonal range 0-255 of display.And WDOutside gray value be then shown as black over the display respectively (Gray value is 0)Or it is pure white(Gray value 255), that is to say, that anatomical structure corresponding with these gray values will not be in specifically Now over the display.
Therefore, in the case that the display parameters in regular display are window position and window width, display parameters set device 203 Just can correspondingly be determined for the window width in the greylevel window corresponding with anatomical structure according to the scope between two planes WDWith window position WL.In fact, because window width WDThe whole tonal range of far smaller than high-order difference image and therefore this equivalent to handle The display resource allocation of display on smaller greylevel window, so allow over the display with enhanced contrast clearly Display anatomical structure corresponding with greylevel window.
Turning now to the description in Fig. 2 to image vision-control equipment 200.The display parameters as described in reference picture 4B Device 203 is set and is provided with display parameters WDAnd WLAfterwards, 2-dimensional image display device 204 can join according to set display Count to adjust the two dimension display of the low level difference image drawn according to high-order difference image.
Used as the operation example of image vision-control equipment 200, Fig. 4 C are shown when two planes have been clamped and lung pair During the tonal range answered, the low level difference image of the lung mechanics after being adjusted according to window width corresponding with the tonal range and window position Interface.In the view in the upper right side of Fig. 4 C, showing to be operated by user in three-dimensional scenic makes two planes clamp substantially The result of tonal range corresponding with lung.Display parameters set device 203 and can accordingly be provided as the window position of display parameters And window width.In the left side view of Fig. 4 C, also show and presented according to window position and window width by 2-dimensional image display device 204 The low level difference image drawn from high-order difference image.From the low level difference image, compared to Figure 1 the contrast of lung substantially increases By force, other anatomical structures different from the tonal range of lung are shown as black or pure white.
According to another embodiment, image vision-control equipment 200 can also include assistant display device 206, and it is matched somebody with somebody It is set to the upward spilling of display threedimensional model or overflows projection of the structure of greylevel window on x/y plane downwards.The bottom right of Fig. 4 C Angle just shows the view for monitoring the structure overflowed upwards and overflow downwards.When plane in user's regulation or lower plane, Assistant display device 206 shows which structure division overflows upwards in the lower right corner of Fig. 4 C(Beyond upper plane)Or overflow downwards (Less than lower plane), to provide a user with whether plan-position is suitable to the auxiliary instruction of the anatomical structure to be shown.Preferably, These view fields can be filled with different colours, more intuitively to recognize.In the lower right corner of Fig. 4 C, left-side images refer to Show spilling downwards, image right indicates to overflow upwards.It is visible due to there was only body both sides in three-dimensional scenic from the view in the upper right corner Few part be located at below lower plane, so assistant display device 206 shows few downward spilling in left-side images Partly and accordingly user can determine whether that the position of lower plane is relatively low but also can move up lower plane more accurately to press from both sides Firmly tonal range corresponding with lung.Meanwhile, assistant display device 206 shows that the region around lung starts in right side view Below upper plane, this is indicated, and the adjustment of upper plane will exceed scope corresponding with lung and hexyl is originally adjusted in place.
In addition, it is also seen that current display parameters are shown in region between left side view and right side view, Such as window width, window position and with the beginning and end value of window width etc..
Preferably, 2-dimensional image display device 204 is additionally configured to be indicated and institute in the two dimension display of low level difference image State the corresponding part of projection.Fig. 5 A and Fig. 5 B are the views similar with Fig. 4 C, are shown respectively when the three-dimensional scenic in the upper right corner In shown on the low level difference image in left side behind appropriate adjustment plan-position crossed with irregular curve overflow upwards part and The view of part is overflowed downwards.In this case, user such as doctor intuitively can come exactly with reference to human dissection image Judge lung whether fall into overflow part and it is thus determined that display parameters regulate whether meet diagnosis require.
According to another embodiment, image vision-control equipment 200 can also include three-dimensional scenic adjusting means 205, quilt It is configured to be adjusted according to second user operation the view of three-dimensional scenic, including adjusts position of camera, the direction of view and regard The position and direction of wild and three-dimensional scenic.
For example, second user operation is selection or predetermined mouse action in shortcut menu etc..
Preferably, the view of regulation three-dimensional scenic may also include the regulation at least one of color of three-dimensional scenic and impermeable Lightness.
It is highly preferred that the view of regulation three-dimensional scenic may also include regulation three-dimensional scenic scale factor in the z-axis direction, Fig. 6 A and 6B show a case that to compress and stretch three-dimensional scenic in the z-axis direction respectively in the upper right corner.By such tune Section, it is allowed to more subtly move at least one plane more subtly to be adjusted display parameters.
According to another embodiment, 2-dimensional image display device 204 and three-dimensional scenic display device 202 can be configured as basis The change of display parameters updates the display of three-dimensional scenic and low level difference image synchronously with one another.For example, when user drags plane When, three-dimensional scenic display device 202 at least changes the scope that plane clamps and the color or transparency of the scope both sides etc..Together When, 2-dimensional image display device 204 synchronously can update low level difference image according to display parameters corresponding with the scope Two dimension display can also update spilling upwards and overflow part downwards.Additionally, assistant display device 206 can also synchronously more The new display for overflowing part.This synchronized update can for example be realized by using technologies such as look-up tables.
Preferably, three-dimensional scenic display device 202 be also configured to according in low level difference image select region come Synchronously show the threedimensional model corresponding with the region.Fig. 7 shows such view, and wherein left side view shows that user exists A square region interested is drawn on low level difference image(Including lung), then the view in the upper right corner show that three-dimensional scenic shows Device 202 synchronously shows the threedimensional model corresponding with the square region in three-dimensional scenic.This allows user more directly perceived Whether the accurate regulation for judging display parameters in ground meets diagnosis requires.
Therefore, the image vision-control equipment 200 according to the implementation method is the model in two dimensional image and three-dimensional scenic Be combined with plane, with allow user intuitively with reference to three-dimensional scenic to adjust plane in the case of rapidly and continuously adjust The display parameters of high-order difference image are shown in regular display, so as to substantially increase operating efficiency.
Next the image vision-control equipment of the second embodiment according to the application described.The implementation method with it is previous The principle that the difference of implementation method essentially consists according to user's operation correspondingly to set display parameters is different, therefore incite somebody to action Retrace and state difference part, and for being not repeated with the same or analogous other parts of above-mentioned implementation method.
Described in detail referring to Fig. 8 in the implementation method and the mistake of display parameters is correspondingly set according to user's operation Journey.
In fig. 8, GHThe gray scale of the high potential difference medical image of input is represented, its scope is from 0 to 4095.GTRepresent common The gray scale shown on display, its scope is from 0 to 255.Four dotted line shows schematically four planes, and it is high-order perpendicular to expression The reference axis G of the gray value of difference imageH(Corresponding to the z-axis in three-dimensional scenic), P1-P4 represents four coordinates of plane respectively And it is used to uniquely identify plane.Herein, although be described by taking four planes as an example, but can set flat more than four Face.
The scope that mobile two planes of outermost are clamped by user's operation defines a tonal range, its width It is WD.Preferably, WDValue appropriate region in three-dimensional scenic can be displayed on moving for plane.
In this embodiment, it is also crucial by one group in addition to using two points as in first embodiment The value of point determines curve greyscale transformation function.The shown parameter setting apparatus 203 of each key point are mapped in three-dimensional scenic Another the crucial plane between two planes of outermost, it is in other words, corresponding with the crucial plane.With quadratic function As a example by, according to mathematical principle, in addition to needing two points in two planes of outermost, in addition it is also necessary to a point come determine this two Secondary function.Accordingly, it is desirable to select a crucial plane and figure 8 illustrates the plane P3 as crucial plane and right with it The key point answered.Therefore, the position of the crucial plane in three-dimensional scenic can determine the value of key point and further determine that The shape of the curve greyscale transformation function.
For example, key point can be identified below.
First, in the case where quadratic function is chosen as curve greyscale transformation function, in GT0-255 on direction of principal axis Scope be divided into determine quadratic function needed for three planes the equal quantity of quantity, as shown in the chain-dotted line in Fig. 8.
Then, a chain-dotted line(It is such as bottom one)With the intersection point of plane P3 as a key point, in Fig. 8 Shown in circle.
The determination mode of key point is foregoing illustrated, but is not limited to this;P4 can for example be selected with one above Dashdotted intersection point is used as key point, or ambit rule 0-255 or is brokenly divided into greater number, as long as can Determine the parameter of quadratic function.
After key point is determined, according to mathematical principle, using in the scope and plane P3 of the plane P1-P2 of both sides The position of key point can limit quadratic function:
GT=aGH 2+b GH+ c, if P1<GH<P2;
And
