IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD THEREOF, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM

摘要

The present invention an image processing apparatus, which processes an image of a tomogram obtained by capturing an image of an eye to be examined by a tomography apparatus, comprises, layer candidate detection means for detecting layer candidates of a retina of the eye to be examined from the tomogram, artifact region determination means for determining an artifact region in the tomogram based on image features obtained using the layer candidates, and image correction means for correcting intensities in the artifact region based on a determination result of the artifact region determination means and image features in the region.
