RADIOGRAPHIC IMAGING SUPPORT SYSTEM, RADIOGRAPHIC IMAGING SUPPORT METHOD, AND RECORDING MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18464569 titled 'RADIOGRAPHIC IMAGING SUPPORT SYSTEM, RADIOGRAPHIC IMAGING SUPPORT METHOD, AND RECORDING MEDIUM
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a radiographic imaging support system that helps position a radiographing site of a subject in relation to a radiographic imaging apparatus. The system includes a hardware processor that acquires image information from an optical camera capturing an image of the radiographing site, generates target position information, and outputs this information, which includes details about the size of the radiographing site.
- Hardware processor acquires image information from an optical camera
- Generates target position information for the radiographing site
- Outputs information including the size of the radiographing site
Potential Applications
This technology could be used in medical imaging facilities, veterinary clinics, and industrial inspection settings where precise positioning of the subject or object being imaged is crucial.
Problems Solved
This system solves the problem of accurately positioning the radiographing site in relation to the imaging apparatus, ensuring high-quality and precise radiographic images.
Benefits
- Improved accuracy in positioning radiographing sites - Enhanced quality of radiographic images - Streamlined imaging process
Potential Commercial Applications
"Radiographic Imaging Support System for Precise Positioning" could find applications in medical equipment manufacturing companies, radiology departments in hospitals, and veterinary clinics.
Possible Prior Art
One possible prior art could be the use of manual positioning guides or markers to assist in positioning the radiographing site, which may not be as accurate or efficient as the automated system described in this patent application.
What are the specific components of the hardware processor mentioned in the abstract?
The abstract mentions that the hardware processor acquires image information, generates target position information, and outputs this information. However, it does not provide details on the specific components or technology used in the hardware processor to perform these functions.
How does the system ensure the accuracy of the target position information generated for the radiographing site?
The abstract mentions that the system generates target position information regarding the radiographing site, but it does not elaborate on the methods or technologies employed to ensure the accuracy of this information. Additional information on the calibration process or validation mechanisms would be helpful to understand how the system maintains precision in positioning.
Original Abstract Submitted
A radiographic imaging support system that supports positioning of a radiographing site of a subject with respect to a radiographic imaging apparatus, includes a hardware processor that acquires image information based on an optical image obtained by capturing an image of the radiographing site with an optical camera, generates first target position information regarding a target position of the radiographing site, and outputs the generated first target position information. The first target position information includes information corresponding to a size of the radiographing site.
