#CMT# #/CMT# The system includes an additional image processing device (30) with at least one video input port (32a, 32b) for receiving crude video image information from a first image processing device (10), a means (31) for processing or analyzing this information in real time and generating processed video image information, and at least one video output port (35a, 35b) for sending the processed information to a display (20). #CMT# : #/CMT# The first imaging device stores, processes and outputs crude video image information. #CMT#USE : #/CMT# For real time processing of video image information, especially of a human or animal body, e.g. for medical imaging equipment such as ultrasound imaging devices or MRI scanning apparatus. #CMT#ADVANTAGE : #/CMT# Increased real time processing capacity with the possibility of noise reduction so that given structures in the body, such as a blood vessel or catheter, are more clearly visible. Likewise, unwanted structures such as the ribs, which obstruct photos of the lungs, can be removed. #CMT#DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS : #/CMT# The figure shows a block diagram representing the video image information processing system. 10 : First image processing device, e.g. PC with Windows operating system 20 : Display 30 : Additional image processing device 31 : Processor 32a : Analogue video input port 32 : b Digital (DVI) video input port 35a : Analogue video output port 35b : DVI video output port 40b : Processed video information. |
