Title:
IMAGE ANALYZING DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2007/105517
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A CPU performs a gray-scale value slope computation processing of, e. g., an R signal at step S10, performs isotropic variation feature value computation processing from the gray-scale value slope computed at step S11, and performs a polyp candidate detection processing to create a polyp candidate image (26) in a position where a polyp is present by using the isotropic variation feature value computed at step S12. Thus, the detection of the position where a luminal abnormal tissue is present is improved.
