Apparatus for processing a digital image for window width, level and curve shape

摘要

Apparatus for processing a digital image from a medical diagnostic imaging device. The apparatus includes an image memory, a configurable window width/level or combined window width/level and curve shape look-up table in the input data path to the memory and a curve shape look-up table in the output data path from the memory. The look-up tables and the image memory can handle digital images of different bit length through software control. This increases image processing versatility, minimizes image memory size, and reduces image transfer time.
