20100259538 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR GENERATING FACIAL ANIMATION - An apparatus and method for generating an animation of a virtual character using video data and a limited number of three-dimensional (3D) key models of a virtual character, are provided. The video data includes a sequence of two-dimensional image frames. The key models are blended together using the calculated weights, and a 3D facial expression most similar to the 2D facial expression included in each image frame may be generated. When the above operations are performed for input video data including a sequence of image frames, a facial animation, which makes facial expressions according to facial expressions included in the video data may be created. | 10-14-2010 |
20120165673 | METHOD OF DISPLAYING DIAGNOSTIC IMAGE, IMAGE PROCESSING DEVICE, AND MEDICAL IMAGE SYSTEM FOR PERFORMING THE SAME - A method of displaying a diagnostic image is provided. The method includes setting an examination target of a subject, dividing the examination target into a plurality of examination regions, detecting whether a signal region indicated by a signal transmitted from a probe collides with each of the plurality of examination regions, calculating a collision frequency of each of the plurality of examination regions, based on a result of the detecting, and displaying a diagnostic image that indicates a sectional view of the subject and includes information indicating a degree of the collision frequency of each of the plurality of examination regions included in the sectional view, based on the calculation result. | 06-28-2012 |
20120232390 | DIAGNOSTIC APPARATUS AND METHOD - A diagnostic apparatus and method is provided. A diagnostic apparatus includes a region of interest (ROI) detection unit configured to detect at least one ROI in a diagnostic image formed according to an echo signal returned from a subject, an emphatic image generation unit configured to generate an emphatic image, and a display unit configured to display the generated emphatic image. | 09-13-2012 |
20130022253 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR ANALYZING ULTRASONIC IMAGE - An apparatus for analyzing an ultrasonic image is provided. The apparatus includes a feature point extracting unit configured to convert the ultrasonic image into a phase information image and extract a feature point from the phase information image, and an image registering unit configured to perform an image registration on the ultrasonic image based on the extracted feature point. | 01-24-2013 |
20130030278 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR DETECTING LESION AND LESION DIAGNOSIS APPARATUS - An apparatus for detecting a lesion is provided. The apparatus includes an extracting unit configured to extract at least one tissue region from an image of tissue regions, a setting unit configured to set at least one of the at least one extracted tissue region as a lesion detection candidate region, and a detecting unit configured to detect a lesion from the lesion detection candidate region. | 01-31-2013 |
20130094766 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CORRECTING LESION IN IMAGE FRAME - An apparatus for extracting a candidate image frame includes a generating unit configured to generate at least one lesion value that represents a characteristic of a lesion included in each of a plurality of 2-dimensional image frames that form a 3-dimensional image, and an extracting unit configured to extract, from the image frames, at least one candidate image frame usable for correcting a boundary of the lesion based on the at least one lesion value. | 04-18-2013 |
20130114904 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR DETECTING ERROR IN LESION CONTOUR, APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CORRECTING ERROR IN LESION CONTOUR, AND APPARATUS FOR INSPECTING ERROR IN LESION CONTOUR - An apparatus for detecting an error in a contour of a lesion includes an extracting unit configured to extract a contour of a lesion in each of a plurality of two-dimensional image frames that form a three-dimensional image, and an error determining unit configured to determine a presence or an absence of an error in a contour of a lesion in a target image frame of the two-dimensional image frames based on estimation information about the lesion in the target image frame and/or an energy value that corresponds to the contour of the lesion in the target image frame. | 05-09-2013 |
20130144167 | LESION DIAGNOSIS APPARATUS AND METHOD USING LESION PERIPHERAL ZONE INFORMATION - A lesion diagnosis apparatus is provided. The lesion diagnosis apparatus using lesion peripheral zone information includes a region division unit configured to divide a region based on lesions or organs included in a medical image, a region exclusion unit configured to exclude regions including lesions or organs other than a diagnostic target lesion among regions divided by the region division unit, and a peripheral region determination unit configured to determine regions other than a diagnostic region among remaining regions other than regions excluded by the region exclusion unit, as peripheral regions for lesion diagnosis. | 06-06-2013 |
