Abstract

See full text

A medical image processing device and a corresponding method are provided that can extract and enhance a signal in a medical image. A medical image processing device that applies image processing to a medical image, the device including an acquiring unit that acquires an original image, a first extraction unit that extracts a local bias component image, a creating unit that decomposes a difference image between the original image and the local bias component image into at least two frequency bands and creates a low-frequency component image formed of a component in the lowest frequency band, a second extraction unit that extracts a local bias component low-frequency image that is a local bias component of the low-frequency component image, and a computing unit that multiplies the local bias component low-frequency image by a gain, adds to the local bias component image, and computes a contrast enhanced image.
