Abstract

See full text

An embodiment of the invention relates to a scanning device. The scanning device includes a scanning unit to detect radiation received during a scanning operation on an object. An imaging unit is arranged to reconstruct an image for a location on the object based on the detected radiation. A texture analysis unit receives an indicated area of interest of a medical image and computes at least one texture metric for the area of interest. An image comparison unit receives a plurality of texture metrics for a common area of interest within respective medical images and outputs a change metric indicating a measure of variation over time for the area of interest based on a comparison of the plurality of texture metrics.
