Fusion and display of 3D SPECT and MR images registered by a surface fitting method
Since 3D medical images such as SPECT and MRI are taken under different patients positioning and imaging parameters, interpretation of them, as reconstructed originally, does not provide an easy and accurate understanding of similarities and differences between them. The problem becomes more crucial where a clinician would like to map accurately region of interest from one study to the ot...
متن کاملComparison of state-of-the-art atlas-based bone segmentation approaches from brain MR images for MR-only radiation planning and PET/MR attenuation correction
Introduction: Magnetic Resonance (MR) imaging has emerged as a valuable tool in radiation treatment (RT) planning as well as Positron Emission Tomography (PET) imaging owing to its superior soft-tissue contrast. Due to the fact that there is no direct transformation from voxel intensity in MR images into electron density, itchr('39')s crucial to generate a pseudo-CT (Computed Tomography) image ...
متن کاملCompensation of brain shift during surgery using non-rigid registration of MR and ultrasound images
Background: Surgery and accurate removal of the brain tumor in the operating room and after opening the scalp is one of the major challenges for neurosurgeons due to the removal of skull pressure and displacement and deformation of the brain tissue. This displacement of the brain changes the location of the tumor relative to the MR image taken preoperatively. Methods: This study, which is done...
متن کاملBias Field Correction of Breast MR Images
We present a method to automatically estimate and remove the bias eld of MR images where there is a single dominant tissue class. Assuming that a multi-class image is corrupted by a multiplicative, lowfrequency bias eld, the method evaluates the bias eld on a single tissue class, and extends it to the whole image. The algorithm works iteratively, interleaving tissue class domain and bias eld es...
متن کاملMeasurement of the correlation coefficients between extracted features from CT and MR images
Introduction: Nowadays applying computer in image processing is being improved revolutionary for solving medical images deficiencies. Image features that are analysis in image processing show image information. The aim of the present study was to find correlation between CT- scan and MRI images' features. Materials and Methods: After data acquisition, applying...
