<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To specify an area in which a pixel value does not correspond to a three-dimensional shape of an imaging target in an intraluminal image. <P>SOLUTION: The image processing apparatus 10 includes: an area extracting unit 21 that extracts a candidate area of a classification target area to be a candidate for blood vessel, mirror reflection portion, or a color change lesion in which a pixel value inside does not correspond to a three-dimensional shape of an imaging target based on pixel values of an intraluminal image; and an area classifying unit 22 that classifies the classification target area of blood vessel, mirror reflection portion, or a color change lesion out of the classification candidate area based on the pixel values of the inside of the candidate area. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
