X-ray diagnostic apparatus and injector
View Patent ↗An X-ray diagnostic apparatus according to an embodiment includes a processing circuitry. The processing circuitry configured to acquire blood flow state information indicating a blood flow state in a blood vessel of a subject, and control at least one of an injection start, an injection speed, and an injection amount of injection of a contrast media into the subject by an injector based on the blood flow state information acquired.
1. An X-ray diagnostic apparatus, comprising:
processing circuitry configured to
acquire pixel values of pixels included in a predetermined region in each of X-ray images that are collected chronologically as blood flow state information indicating a blood flow state in a blood vessel of a subject, and
control at least one of an injection start, an injection speed, and an injection amount of injection of a contrast media into the subject by an injector according to changes of the pixel values, while acquiring the pixel values.
2. The X-ray diagnostic apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the processing circuitry is further configured to
acquire the pixel values in each of a plurality of regions included in the X-ray images, and
change a control related to the injection of the contrast media into the subject by the injector in accordance with changes of the acquired pixel values, according to respective importance of the regions.
3. The X-ray diagnostic apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the processing circuitry is further configured to
acquire a difference between the pixel values of a first region included in the blood vessel region of the X-ray images and a second region included in a non-blood vessel region of the X-ray images, and
execute a control according to changes of the difference between the pixel values acquired.
4. The X-ray diagnostic apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the processing circuitry is further configured to
acquire a difference between the pixel values, which are acquired before and after contrasting of the blood vessel region of the X-ray images, and
execute a control according to changes of the difference between the pixel values acquired.
5. The X-ray diagnostic apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein the processing circuitry is further configured to extract the blood vessel region from the X-ray images, which are collected before and after contrasting using the contrast media.
6. The X-ray diagnostic apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the processing circuitry is further configured to control a contrast media injection condition including timings of the injection start and an injection stop of the contrast media by the injector, the injection speed of the contrast media, and the injection amount of the contrast media based on the blood flow state information acquired.
7. An injector that performs injection of a contrast media according to a control executed by the X-ray diagnostic apparatus according to claim 1 .
8. An injector that performs injection of a contrast media according to a control executed by the X-ray diagnostic apparatus according to claim 2 .
9. An injector that performs injection of a contrast media according to a control executed by the X-ray diagnostic apparatus according to claim 3 .
10. An injector that performs injection of a contrast media according to a control executed by the X-ray diagnostic apparatus according to claim 4 .
11. An injector that performs injection of a contrast media according to a control executed by the X-ray diagnostic apparatus according to claim 5 .
12. An injector that performs injection of a contrast media according to a control executed by the X-ray diagnostic apparatus according to claim 6 .
