The described internal organs image that is partitioned into from the primitive medicine data is found out center path to these pipeline internal organs again, is meant: cut apart for the primitive medicine data, the organic image that reconstructs is then found out center path to the whole pipe cavity again.
Describedly determine to cut open the Surface Method vector, be meant:, vertical with tangential direction by three condition: a. according to the tangential direction of every bit on the center path for the every bit on the center path; The angle that cuts direction of b. catching up with a center path point is the least possible; C. vector length is 1.Thereby what solve this point cuts open the Surface Method vector.
Described is radius of sphericity with this approximate distance of putting organ walls, is meant: every on the center path
Point is obtained its distance to organ walls on every side, and according to the form of wall this distance is increased processing, eliminates the influence of gauffer, and with this radius as spheroid in next step processing.
Described according to cuing open the Surface Method vector, with hemisphere the pipeline organ model is gathered subtraction, be meant: for each point on the center path, with this point is the center of circle, the approximate distance that previous step obtains is a radius, and it is last cuing open the determined direction of Surface Method vector, makes hemisphere, and deduct hemispheroidal pixel with the volumetric pixel of organ, hinder the part of observing thereby be equivalent to remove organ.
Described remaining model is carried out region growing, guarantee to be communicated with, be meant: carry out region growing for cutting the pixel that needs to keep among the result, and the connectedness of assurance results area, because cutting issuable fragment is not communicated with reserve area, thereby removed, obtain being convenient to the organ image of inspections and examinations.
The present invention is with respect to the advantage of prior art: 1, the visual angle is more flexible and open, makes diagnostic procedure more directly perceived.2, can remove ponding and other foreign material in the colon, make that diagnosis is more accurate.3, the visual angle can also move on to the colon outside, observe configuration and with the getting in touch of perienchyma's organ.
