no. 1 approach

[0057] In this embodiment, a case where a summary of a series of image groups captured by a capsule endoscope is displayed in a list will be described. By using this embodiment, when displaying a summary of a series of image groups captured by a capsule endoscope or images detected by predetermined image processing, it is possible to display them in a list, and it is possible to efficiently identify the desired image. Image.

[0058] figure 1 A capsule endoscope and its peripheral equipment used for inspection in a body cavity according to the present embodiment are shown. Such as figure 1 As shown in (A), the inspection system using the capsule endoscope 1 is composed of the capsule endoscope 1 , an antenna pad 4 , and an external device 5 .

[0059] When the patient 2 swallows the capsule endoscope 1 from the mouth, the capsule endoscope 1 inspects the inside of the body cavity. The external device 5 is a receiver arranged outside the body of the patient 2 , and the re...

no. 2 approach

[0113]In the first embodiment, a summary image was displayed as a list, but in this embodiment, one or more image processing routines are performed on the case data captured by the capsule endoscope, and each image processed The detected images are displayed in a list with the name of the image processing routine attached as a label. In addition, in this embodiment, since the workstation 7 used in 1st Embodiment is also used, the description is abbreviate|omitted.

[0114] Figure 8 It is a figure for demonstrating the list display of this embodiment. First, case data 71 composed of approximately 60,000 images captured by the capsule endoscope is transmitted from the external device 5 to the workstation 7 . The image processing unit 25 performs one or more image processing routines such as color detection (red detection, white detection, etc.), polyp detection, etc. on the case data 71. In the color detection, brightness values ​​based on predetermined color components are ...

no. 3 approach

[0126] In this embodiment, the operation of displaying a list of thumbnails and displaying summary information (color bar, time bar, etc.) Information that links the thumbnail with the summary information of all images.

[0127] Figure 11 A display screen showing a third embodiment (Example 1) in which a list display and a color bar or a time bar are simultaneously displayed, and the positional relationship of images selected on the list display is clearly shown. On the list display screen 100 , there are a list display area 101 displaying a list of thumbnails and a summary information display area 105 displaying summary information of all images such as a color bar or a time bar 103 .

[0128] On the color bar or the time bar 103 , position information of the image 102 focused on the list display can be displayed by a mark such as a cursor 104 , a line, a color change, or the like.

[0129] In addition, when the focus on the list display is moved (hereinafter, the image se...

Abstract

An image processing device is provided with an acquiring means for acquiring time sequential image data that are image data time-sequentially picked up by a capsule type endoscope, an image detecting means for detecting predetermined image data from the acquired time sequential image data, and a display control means for display the predetermined image data of the acquired image data in a view format.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the display of observation images captured by a capsule endoscope. Background technique [0002] In recent years, capsule endoscope systems have attracted attention. A capsule endoscope system is a system (for example, Patent Document 1) in which a capsule-shaped endoscope equipped with an imaging device and a wireless device is swallowed from a patient's mouth until the capsule endoscope is naturally discharged from the human body. During the observation period up to now, the capsule endoscope can sequentially photograph organs such as the stomach and small intestine, send and record the photographed images to an external receiver, and display the recorded images on the monitor of a computer such as a workstation. reproduce. [0003] As described above, unlike ordinary endoscopes, the capsule endoscope images various organs after the subject swallows the capsule endoscope until it is naturally excreted. (Inspection...
