Abstract:
Disclosed herein is an image processing apparatus. The image processing apparatus collects volume data which relates to an object, generates volume-rendered image data from the collected volume data, acquires a projection image of the object at a position at which virtual illumination is emitted toward the object, based on the volume-rendered image data, and corrects the projection image by using at least one conversion function, thereby obtaining a result image.

Claim (Index 12):
An image processing apparatus comprising:\n a volume data collector which is configured to collect volume data which relate to an object; and an image processor configured to perform volume rendering of the collected volume data which relate to the object and to acquire rendered image data, wherein the image processor is further configured to acquire information which relates to a virtual illumination position, to determine at least one conversion function from a plurality of conversion functions stored in a database based on the virtual illumination position which relates to the object, and to correct the acquired image data by using the virtual illumination position and the at least one conversion function, and wherein the image processor is further configured to perform a tone mapping with respect to the acquired image data by using a second conversion function using coordinates of the virtual illumination position as independent variables and a distribution of the virtual illumination position.
