ENHANCED DISPLAY OF MEDICAL IMAGES

摘要

A method of processing a digital radiographic medical image. The digital radiographic medical image is accessed and a plurality of regions of interest is determined. For each of the plurality of regions of interest, steps are performed: determining at least one candidate region of interest (ROI) disease; identifying one ROI disease from the at least one candidate region of interest; determining a processing method appropriate to the identified one ROI disease; and applying the determined processing method to the region of interest to generate a disease enhanced region of interest. The digital radiographic medical image and one or more of the disease enhanced regions of interest can then be displayed.
