A Novel Approach For Medical Image Fusion Based On NSCT Theory
نویسنده
چکیده
In medical application the multimodal image fusion is an important tool. It has developed with the advent of various imaging modalities in medical imaging. It is mostly used for the medical diagnosis. In this proposal a novel fusion technique is proposed for the multi modal medical image based on the NSCT (non-sub sampled Contourlet transform). In this algorithm high frequency and low frequency components are fused by using fusion rules. In this project the two different fusion rules based on phase congruency and ‘averaging’ method is proposed. Finally the fused image is reconstructed by using the inverse NSCT with all coefficients. Simulation results show the proposed frame work provides the better and effective analysis of multimodal fusion. Simulation is done using MATLAB.

Medical Image Fusion by Combining Nonsubsampled Contourlet Transform and Sparse Representation
In this paper, we present a novel medical image fusion method by taking the complementary advantages of two powerful image representation theories: nonsubsampled contourlet transform (NSCT) and sparse representation (SR). In our fusion algorithm, the NSCT is firstly performed on each of the pre-registered source images to obtain the lowpass and high-pass coefficients. Then, the low-pass bands a...

Due to the differences between the visible and thermal infrared images, combination of these two types of images is essential for better understanding the characteristics of targets and the environment. Thermal infrared images have most importance to distinguish targets from the background based on the radiation differences, which work well in all-weather and day/night conditions also in land s...
