This book was released on 1999 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: "Registering medical images of different individuals is difficult due to inherent anatomical variabilities and possible pathologies. This thesis focuses on characterizing non-pathological variations in human brain anatomy, and applying such knowledge to achieve accurate 3-D deformable registration. Inherent anatomical variations are automatically extracted by deformably registering training data with an expert-segmented 3-D image, a digital brain atlas. Statistical properties of the density and geometric variations in brain anatomy are measured and encoded into the atlas to build a statistical atlas. These statistics can function as prior knowledge to guide the automatic registration process. Compared to an algorithm with no knowledge guidance, registration using the statistical atlas reduces the overall error on 40 test cases by 34%. Automatic registration between the atlas and a subject's data adapts the expert segmentation for the subject, thus reduces the months-long manual segmentation process to minutes. Accurate and efficient segmentation of medical images enable quantitative study of anatomical differences between populations, as well as detection of abnormal variations indicative of pathologies."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: "Registration between voxel images of human anatomy enables cross-patient diagnosis and post-treatment analysis. However, innate variations in the shape, size, and density of non-pathological anatomical structures between individuals make accurate registration difficult. Characterization of such normal but inherent variations provides guidance for registration. We extracted the pattern of normal variations in the appearances of brain structures from the T1-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) volumes of 105 subjects. This knowledge serves as a domain-relevant constraint which increases the accuracy of deformable registration. We represent domain knowledge in the form of voxel statistics, and embed these statistics into a 3-D digital brain atlas which we use as the reference. The knowledge acquisition process involves registering a training set of MRI volumes with the atlas. The method employed is a previously developed 3-D hierarchical deformable registration algorithm. This associates each voxel in the reference atlas with distributions of normal variations of intensity and 3-D positions of the training set. We evaluate statistical properties of these distributions for each atlas voxel to build a statistical atlas which contains the anatomical information of the population. When we register this atlas to a particular subject, the embodied statistics function as domain-relevant constraints. The deformation process tolerates non-pathological variations between subjects. When applied to 40 test cases, this knowledge-constrained registration method achieved a correct voxel classification rate above 95% for 36 cases; this is a 24% improvement over the performance of the algorithm without knowledge constraints. To overcome imprecisions in unconstrained registration that effect the rigorousness of the statistical atlas, we propose to build an initial statistical model of a small but accurately registered training set, then boot-strap it into a more reliable model. Besides guiding deformable registration, our knowledge representation also enables quantitative investigation of possible anatomical divergences between populations."

Download or read book Pattern Recognition written by Luc Van Gool and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2002-09-02 with total page 643 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We are proud to present the DAGM 2002 proceedings, which are the result of the e?orts of many people. First, there are the many authors, who have submitted so many excellent cont- butions. We received more than 140 papers, of which we could only accept about half in order not to overload the program. Only about one in seven submitted papers could be delivered as an oral presentation, for the same reason. But it needs to be said that almost all submissions were of a really high quality. This strong program could not have been put together without the support of the Program Committee. They took their responsibility most seriously and we are very grateful for their reviewing work, which certainly took more time than anticipated, given the larger than usual number of submissions. Our three invited speakers added a strong multidisciplinary component to the conference. Dr. Antonio Criminisi of Microsoft Research (Redmond, USA) dem- strated how computer vision can literally bring a new dimension to the app- ciation of art. Prof. Philippe Schyns (Dept. of Psychology, Univ. of Glasgow, UK) presented intriguing insights into the human perception of patterns, e.g., the role of scale. Complementary to this presentation, Prof. Manabu Tanifuji of the Brain Science Institute in Japan (Riken) discussed novel neurophysiological ?ndings on how the brain deals with the recognition of objects and their parts.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: "Registration between 3-D images of human anatomies enables cross-subject diagnosis. However, innate differences in the appearance and location of anatomical structures between individuals make accurate registration difficult. We characterize such anatomical variations to achieve accurate registration. We represent anatomical variations in the form of statistical models, and embed these statistics into a 3-D digital brain atlas which we use as a reference. These models are built by registering a training set of brain MRI volumes with the atlas. This associates each voxel in the atlas with multi-dimensional distributions of variations in intensity and geometry of the training set. We evaluate statistical properties of these distributions to build a statistical atlas. When we register the statistical atlas with a particular subject, the embedded statistics function as prior knowledge to guide the deformation process. This allows the deformation to tolerate variations between individuals while retaining discrimination between different structures. This method gives an overall voxel mis-classification rate of 2.9% on 40 test cases; this is a 34% error reduction over the performance of our previous algorithm without using anatomical knowledge. Besides achieving accurate registration, statistical models of anatomical variations also enable quantitative study of anatomical differences between populations."

This book was released on 2002-09-13 with total page 722 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fifth international Conference in Medical Image Computing and Computer Assisted Intervention (MICCAI 2002) was held in Tokyo from September 25th to 28th, 2002. This was the first time that the conference was held in Asia since its foundation in 1998. The objective of the conference is to offer clinicians and scientists the opportunity to collaboratively create and explore the new medical field. Specifically, MICCAI offers a forum for the discussion of the state of art in computer-assisted interentions, medical robotics, and image processing among experts from multi-disciplinary professions, including but not limited to clinical doctors, computer scientists, and mechanical and biomedical engineers. The expectations of society are very high; the advancement of medicine will depend on computer and device technology in coming decades, as they did in the last decades. We received 321 manuscripts, of which 41 were chosen for oral presentation and 143 for poster presentation. Each paper has been included in these proceedings in eight-page full paper format, without any differentiation between oral and poster papers. Adherence to this full paper format, along with the increased number of manuscripts, surpassing all our expectations, has led us to issue two proceedings volumes for the first time in MICCAI’s history. Keeping to a single volume by assigning fewer pages to each paper was certainly an option for us considering our budget constraints. However, we decided to increase the volume to offer authors maximum opportunity to argue the state of art in their work and to initiate constructive discussions among the MICCAI audience.
