Method and apparatus for processing image corresponding to radiographic pattern

摘要

The present invention relates to a method for processing an image corresponding to a radiographic pattern, the image being formed of a plurality of pixels each having a value corresponding to density. The method includes the steps of obtaining an image corresponding to a radiographic pattern so that values of pixels forming the image are stored in a memory; dividing the image into a plurality of image regions based on the values of the pixels forming the image, each image region including pixels each of which has a value falling within a predetermined range; and applying an image processing to the plurality of image regions of the image, processing conditions used for the plurality of image regions in the image processing differing from each other.
