Towards a Surgical Tool Using Hyperspectral Imagery as Visual Aid

چکیده
This paper presents a new application to exploit the capabilities of hyperspectral imagery as a visual supporting tool during surgeries. In order to enhance the visualization of regions affected with spilt blood, a hyperspectral imaging technique has been developed. We propose a neural network approach to nonlinearly combine the wavelengths of the spectrum in order to reduce the effect of spilt blood in an image and produce a clearer image of the concealed area. Preliminary experimental results guinea pigs are presented to validate the method. A sketch of a four-band multi-spectral camera, tuned in wavelengths identified using the learning algorithm, is also presented.

During a surgical procedure, blood covering the surgical field hinders the surgeon’s visual inspection. We propose a novel application of hyperspectral imagery in the biomedical field. We conceived a method to exploit the capabilities of hyperspectral imaging systems in order to provide clearer images of areas covered by blood to the surgeon. We developed a neural network approach to generate a...
متن کاملLand Cover Subpixel Change Detection using Hyperspectral Images Based on Spectral Unmixing and Post-processing
The earth is continually being influenced by some actions such as flood, tornado and human artificial activities. This process causes the changes in land cover type. Thus, for optimal management of the use of resources, it is necessary to be aware of these changes. Today’s remote sensing plays key role in geology and environmental monitoring by its high resolution, wide covering and low cost...
متن کاملOverlap-based feature weighting: The feature extraction of Hyperspectral remote sensing imagery
Hyperspectral sensors provide a large number of spectral bands. This massive and complex data structure of hyperspectral images presents a challenge to traditional data processing techniques. Therefore, reducing the dimensionality of hyperspectral images without losing important information is a very important issue for the remote sensing community. We propose to use overlap-based feature weigh...

Oil spill is one of major marine environmental challenges. The main impacts of this phenomenon are preventing light transmission into the deep water and oxygen absorption, which can disturb the photosynthesis process of water plants. In this research, we utilize SpecTIR airborne sensor data to extract and classify oils spill for the Gulf of Mexico Deepwater Horizon (DWH) happened in 2010. For t...
