Abstract

An image processing system with self monitoring includes an image acquisition module for acquiring data corresponding to an image, and one or more image processing modules. The acquisition module interleaves the variable (and therefore unpredictable) image data with diagnostic data to provide known diagnostic data. The image processing modules process the diagnostic data together with the image data to monitor system performance.
