IMAGE PROCESSING DEVICE, IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18410187 titled 'IMAGE PROCESSING DEVICE, IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM

Simplified Explanation

The image processing device X described in the abstract includes acquisition means, inference means, and integration means. The acquisition means X captures an endoscopic image of an examination target, while the inference means X generates multiple inference results about an attention region in the endoscopic image. The integration means X then combines these inference results.

  • The acquisition means X captures endoscopic images of examination targets.
  • The inference means X generates multiple inference results about attention regions in the endoscopic images.
  • The integration means X combines the inference results to provide a comprehensive analysis.

Potential Applications

This technology could be used in medical settings for analyzing endoscopic images and identifying potential issues or abnormalities in examination targets.

Problems Solved

This technology helps in efficiently analyzing endoscopic images and identifying attention regions in examination targets, aiding in diagnosis and treatment planning.

Benefits

The benefits of this technology include improved accuracy in analyzing endoscopic images, faster identification of potential issues, and enhanced decision-making in medical settings.

Potential Commercial Applications

One potential commercial application of this technology could be in the development of advanced medical imaging systems for endoscopic procedures.

Possible Prior Art

Prior art in the field of medical imaging and analysis software may include similar systems that analyze images for diagnostic purposes.

What are the limitations of this technology in real-world applications?

This technology may have limitations in terms of processing speed and accuracy, especially when dealing with complex or detailed endoscopic images.

How does this technology compare to existing image processing devices in the market?

This technology may offer improved inference capabilities and integration of results compared to existing image processing devices, leading to more comprehensive analysis of endoscopic images.


Original Abstract Submitted

The image processing device X includes an acquisition means X, an inference means X, and an integration means X. The acquisition means X acquires an endoscopic image obtained by photographing an examination target. The inference means X generates plural inference results regarding an attention region of the examination target in the endoscopic image, based on the endoscopic image. The integration means X integrates plural inference results.
