Abstract

The essential part of an endoscope system is constructed from a medical observation device, a medical image processing device, and a monitor. A CPU (22) of the medical image processing device has function sections that are a three-dimensional model estimation section (22a), a detection target region setting section (22b), a shape feature amount calculation section (22c), a three-dimensional shapedetection section (22d), a threshold decision section (22e), and a polyp decision section (22f). The construction enables execution of processing that is appropriately adapted to an observation stateof a two-dimensional target image, and this improves detection accuracy in detecting a lesion having the shape of a local protrusion.

Description

[0001] This application is based on Article 42 of the Detailed Rules for the Implementation of the Patent Law. It is a divisional application of the invention patent application "Medical Image Processing Device" with the filing date of April 10, 2007 and the application number of 200780026931.7. technical field [0002] The present invention relates to a medical image processing device and a medical image processing method, and more particularly to a medical image processing device and a medical image processing method for estimating a three-dimensional model of a living tissue from a two-dimensional image of the living tissue. Background technique [0003] Conventionally, in the medical field, observations using imaging equipment such as X-ray diagnostic equipment, CT, MRI, ultrasonic observation equipment, and endoscope equipment have been widely performed. An endoscope device in such an image pickup device has, for example, the following functions and structures: it has an...
