Download or read book Digital Image Processing for Medical Applications written by Geoff Dougherty and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2009-04-09 with total page 463 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Image processing is a hands-on discipline, and the best way to learn is by doing. This text takes its motivation from medical applications and uses real medical images and situations to illustrate and clarify concepts and to build intuition, insight and understanding. Designed for advanced undergraduates and graduate students who will become end-users of digital image processing, it covers the basics of the major clinical imaging modalities, explaining how the images are produced and acquired. It then presents the standard image processing operations, focusing on practical issues and problem solving. Crucially, the book explains when and why particular operations are done, and practical computer-based activities show how these operations affect real images. All images, links to the public-domain software ImageJ and custom plug-ins, and selected solutions are available from www.cambridge.org/books/dougherty.

Download or read book Color Medical Image Analysis written by M. Emre Celebi and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-09-16 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the early 20th century, medical imaging has been dominated by monochrome imaging modalities such as x-ray, computed tomography, ultrasound, and magnetic resonance imaging. As a result, color information has been overlooked in medical image analysis applications. Recently, various medical imaging modalities that involve color information have been introduced. These include cervicography, dermoscopy, fundus photography, gastrointestinal endoscopy, microscopy, and wound photography. However, in comparison to monochrome images, the analysis of color images is a relatively unexplored area. The multivariate nature of color image data presents new challenges for researchers and practitioners as the numerous methods developed for monochrome images are often not directly applicable to multichannel images. The goal of this volume is to summarize the state-of-the-art in the utilization of color information in medical image analysis.

Download or read book Digital Processing of Biomedical Images written by K. Preston and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Until recently digital processing of biomedical images was conducted solely in the research laboratories of the universities and industry. However, with the advent of computerized tomography in 1972 and the computerized white blood cell differential count in 1974, enormous changes have suddenly occurred. Digital image pro cessing in biomedicine has now become the most active sector in the digital image processing field. Processing rates have reached the level of one trillion picture elements per year in the United States alone and are expected to be ten trillion per year in 1980. This enormous volume of activity has stimulated further re search in biomedical image processing in the last two years with the result that important inroads have been made in applications in radiology, oncology, and ophthalmology. Although much significant work in this field is taking place in Europe, it is in the United States and Japan that the level of activity is highest.

Download or read book Clinical Photography Theory and Practice written by Simon Brown and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-09-25 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is an authoritative and comprehensive reference for understanding clinical photography and improving the reader's ability to hone their skills and knowledge. The book first explores the rationale for clinical photography before going on to provide a practical guide to equipment selection, standardized techniques and digital workflows in a range of settings, from the professional studio to the DIY enthusiast, whilst also including telemedicine. Written and edited by three of the UK’s most experienced and qualified clinical photographers, with additional chapters written by other specialists, it is richly illustrated with numerous example images and suggested protocols and covers basic photographic theory, suitable equipment, digital image workflow and a major chapter on standardized representational photography, the cornerstone of professional clinical photography. Some medical specialties are covered in detail, including dermatology, dental and oral medicine, pediatrics, orthopedics, telemedicine and photography in surgery and the operating room. As well as a practical guide to clinical photography, the book also discusses the legal, moral and ethical contexts within which photography in medicine operates and, for the first time, explores the societal, cultural and religious factors for practicing in today’s digitally literate, multicultural world. This book will provide a valuable resource for biomedical photography students, practitioners and clinicians interested in developing their photography skills and applying them to medicine.
Download or read book Medical and Biological Image Analysis written by and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2018-07-04 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book deals with medical image analysis methods. In particular, it contains two significant chapters on image segmentation as well as some selected examples of the application of image analysis and processing methods. Despite the significant development of information technology methods used in modern image analysis and processing algorithms, the segmentation process remains open. This is mainly due to intra-patient variability and/or scene diversity. Segmentation is equally difficult in the case of ultrasound imaging and depends on the location of the probe or the contact force. Regardless of the imaging method, segmentation must be tailored for a specific application in almost every case. These types of application areas for various imaging methods are included in this book.
Download or read book Handbook of Biomedical Image Analysis written by David Wilson and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2007-04-25 with total page 583 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our goal is to develop automated methods for the segmentation of thr- dimensional biomedical images. Here, we describe the segmentation of c- focal microscopy images of bee brains (20 individuals) by registration to one or several atlas images. Registration is performed by a highly parallel imp- mentation of an entropy-based nonrigid registration algorithm using B-spline transformations. We present and evaluate different methods to solve the cor- spondence problem in atlas based registration. An image can be segmented by registering it to an individual atlas, an average atlas, or multiple atlases. When registering to multiple atlases, combining the individual segmentations into a ?nalsegmentationcanbeachievedbyatlasselection,ormulticlassi?erdecision fusion.

The present work is focused on the mathematical and computational t- ory behind a technique for deformable image registration termed Hyperelastic Warping, and demonstration of the technique via applications in image regist- tion and strain measurement. The approach combines well-established prin- ples of nonlinear continuum mechanics with forces derived directly from thr- dimensional image data to achieve registration. The general approach does not require the de?nition of landmarks, ?ducials, or surfaces, although it can - commodate these if available. Representative problems demonstrate the robust and ?exible nature of the approach. Three-dimensional registration methods are introduced for registering MRI volumes of the pelvis and prostate.
