ABSTRACT:
The invention concerns an image processing device, including an input for receiving a time series of data sets representing comparable volume digital images, each data having a position component and an intensity component, pre-processing means for modifying the data sets so as to obtain images updated in position and intensity, and comparative processing means for examining sets of time series of image elements and to detect therein signs of variations. The processing means include a modeling function for adjusting a parametric model separately on some of the sets of time series of image elements, to obtain pairs of data (image element, time) and a function for statistical analysis of said pairs of data to isolate the pairs of data representing a significant variation.
