ABSTRACT:
An image processing apparatus for processing an image represented by a plurality of pixels corresponding with a plurality of image intensity signals, respectively, is provided. A selected one of the image intensity signals corresponding with a first image type is processed, in parallel with an image type determining arrangement, a first image processing module and a second image processing module. Preferably, the first image processing module has an output and is adapted to process images of the first image type, while the second image processing module has an output and is adapted to process images of a second type. The image processing apparatus includes: a first memory section, communicating with the image type determining arrangement, the first image processing module and the second image processing module, for buffering the plurality of the image intensity signals; a second memory section for receiving image intensity signals processed with the image processing modules; and a control section, communicating with the image type determining arrangement, the image processing modules and the second memory section for causing the output signal from the second image processing module to be received by the second memory section when the selected image intensity signal is of the first image type.
