Comparison 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 کاملAssessment the Changes of Cortical Thickness in Alzheimer’s Disease in MR images using Freesurfer Software
Purpose: In this study, the main goal was to determine the correlation between the thickness of cerebral cortex and the severity of cognitive disorder in Alzheimer's disease Materials and method: Twenty patients diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease with mean age of 72.95 year(14 women and 6 men) and Ten Cognitively normal (CN) subjects with mean age of 70.50 year( 7 women and 3 men) were include...
متن کاملFusion 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 کاملPhenol Removal from Aqueous Solutions by Adsorption on Activated Carbon of Miswak’s Root Treated with KMnO4
Background and Purpose: Phenol and derivatives are common pollutants of drinking water which are blamed for crucial adverse effects such as poisoning, cancer, and malformation. In this study, an activated carbon of Miswak’s root (MR) was used for the removal of phenol from aqueous solutions as a low-cost and high surface adsorbent. Materials and Methods: Adsorption exper...
متن کاملCortical Surface Reconstruction from High-Resolution MR Brain Images
Reconstruction of the cerebral cortex from magnetic resonance (MR) images is an important step in quantitative analysis of the human brain structure, for example, in sulcal morphometry and in studies of cortical thickness. Existing cortical reconstruction approaches are typically optimized for standard resolution (~1 mm) data and are not directly applicable to higher resolution images. A new PD...
