Two major difficulties associated with medical image processing are the diverse image formats that must be dealt with because of the differences in image sources and the number of incompatible display systems available for viewing images both before and after processing. We describe a very small set of primitives that need to be defined to utilize any raster display. When these primitives have been implemented for a particular device, then a standard set of image display programs can be compiled and images and the results of image processing can be displayed. The main purpose of this paper is to describe what a raster display looks like from the point of view of the programmer and to define the specific hardware and software data about the raster display that must be known in order to implement the small set of primitives.
与医学图像处理相关的两个主要困难是，由于图像来源的差异，必须处理多种图像格式，以及在处理前后都有许多不兼容的显示系统可用于查看图像。我们描述了一组非常小的基元，为了使用任何光栅显示器，都需要定义这些基元。当这些基元针对特定设备实现后，就可以编译一组标准的图像显示程序，并显示图像和图像处理结果。本文的主要目的是从程序员的角度描述光栅显示器的样子，并定义为了实现这组小基元而必须了解的有关光栅显示器的特定硬件和软件数据。
