METHOD FOR PROCESSING AN ENDOSCOPY IMAGE

摘要

The invention relates to a method for processing a generated digital endoscopy image (12) of a patient (2), wherein: those pixels (16a-d) that depict a body region of the patient (2) are determined as image points (18a-d) in the endoscopy image (12), a color value (20a-d) is derived for each image point (18a-d) using the value of the associated pixel (16a-d), an area portion (24a-d) associated with each image point (18a-d) is derived for same, a color area (26A-C) is derived for each value (A-C) of the derived color values (20a-d) as the sum of all area portions (24a-d) of the image points (18a-d) comprising said value (A-C), an evaluation dimension (28) is determined for the endoscopy image (12) using the color areas (26A-C).
