Abstract:
An image processing apparatus includes an acquiring unit and an image processing unit. The acquiring unit acquires a radiographic image acquired by irradiating a radiation on an object and a scattered-ray component contained in the radiographic image, wherein the scattered-ray component originates from a scattered ray which is a radiation scattered in the object. The image processing unit performs an image process on the radiographic image in accordance with an instruction, wherein the image processing unit performs an image process based on a radiographic image acquired by the acquiring unit and a scattered-ray component acquired by the acquiring unit in a case where an instruction to perform the image process is received again.

Claim (Index 16):
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a program to cause an image processing apparatus to perform a method to reduce a scattered-ray component from a radiographic image, the method comprising:\n acquiring, by an identifying unit implemented by one or more processors, a radiographic image using a radiation detector that detects a radiation through an object; estimating a scattered-ray component contained in the radiographic image, wherein the scattered-ray component originates from a scattered ray which is a radiation scattered in the object; reducing the scattered-ray component from the radiographic image; and attaching identification information for identifying the scattered-ray component to the radiographic image, wherein, in a case where the scattered-ray component corresponding to the identification information exists in a reduction process performed for reducing the scattered-ray component from a newly acquired radiographic image, the scattered-ray component is reduced from the newly acquired radiographic image using the estimated scattered-ray component corresponding to the identification information.
