Image Post-Processing in Dental Practice

Image Post-Processing in Dental Practice

Image post-processing of dental digital radiographs, a function which used commonly in dental practice is presented in this article. Digital radiography has been available in dentistry for more than 25 years and its use by dental practitioners is steadily increasing. Digital acquisition of radiographs enables computer-based image post-processing to enhance image quality and increase the accurac...

Image Post-Processing and Interpretation

Image post-processing is defined as the process of integrating a series of axial images into a form that is often easier to interpret than the sections themselves. The source transverse section is a fundamental image for interpretation. However, because of the complexity of coronary anatomy, interpreters must review coronary CT angiography interactively on workstations capable of 3-dimensional ...

Image Segmentation using Improved Imperialist Competitive Algorithm and a Simple Post-processing

Image segmentation is a fundamental step in many of image processing applications. In most cases the image’s pixels are clustered only based on the pixels’ intensity or color information and neither spatial nor neighborhood information of pixels is used in the clustering process. Considering the importance of including spatial information of pixels which improves the quality of image segmentati...

Fragmentation measurement using image processing

In this research, first of all, the existing problems in fragmentation measurement are reviewed for the sake of its fast and reliable evaluation. Then, the available methods used for evaluation of blast results are mentioned. The produced errors especially in recognizing the rock fragments in computer-aided methods, and also, the importance of determination of their sizes in the image analysis ...
