Digital image acquisition and processing in medical x-ray imaging

This contribution discusses a selection of today's techniques and futurc concepts for digital x-ray imaging in medicine. Advantages of digital imaging over conventional analog methods include the possibility to archive and transmit images in digital intormation systems as well as to digitally process pictures before display, for example, to enhance low contrast details. After reviewing two digi...

Image Processing Software Package in Medical Imaging: A review

MATLAB is at present among the best available technique for image processing. Medical images after digitalized processed can help reducing the number of false positives and they assist medical officers in deciding between follow-up and biopsy. This paper gives a survey of image processing algorithms that have been developed for detection of masses and segmentation techniques. 35 students from u...

Medical Image Processing and Analysis

Medical Image Processing Overview

Biomedical image processing has experienced dramatic expansion, and has been an interdisciplinary research field attracting expertise from applied mathematics, computer sciences, engineering, statistics, physics, biology and medicine. Computer-aided diagnostic processing has already become an important part of clinical routine. Accompanied by a rush of new development of high technology and use...

Multispectral imaging and image processing

The color accuracy of conventional RGB cameras is not sufficient for many color-critical applications. One of these applications, namely the measurement of color defects in yarns, is why Prof. Til Aach and the Institute of Image Processing and Computer Vision (RWTH Aachen University, Germany) started off with multispectral imaging. The first acquisition device was a camera using a monochrome se...
