Title:
IMAGE ANALYZING DEVICE AND IMAGE ANALYZING METHOD
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2007/105516
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A CPU performs a polyp candidate detecting processing at step S4 so as to process a thinning image (25) for each label value, superposes the processing results on a polyp candidate image (26), and creates a poly candidate labeling image where the polyp candidate edges are labeled. The polyp candidate labeling image created by superposing the polyp candidate image (26) on an original imago (22) is displayed on a display. Thus, the positions of the polyp candidates on the image can be easily recognized, and the detection accuracy of the luminal abnormal tissue can be improved.
