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...

MR imaging can be used for many applications in oncology. Its main roles in cancer imaging are determining locoregional tumor extent, characterizing tumors, and monitoring treatment. MRI, like CT, relies on morphological criteria for lesion differentiation. This reliance, however, can make it difficult to detect small cancerous deposits and to differentiate tumor recurrence from treatment-induc...

for the time dependence of the macoscopic magnetisation M(t) of a sample under the influence of an external field H(t) where γ =μ / Ih is the gyromagnetic ratio of the nuclei under consideration with magnetic moment μ and spin I, i, j, and k are the usual triad of unit vectors along the Cartesian axes. The external field has the form H(t) = H0k + H1(t), where H0 is strong and constant while H1 ...

Diffusion is the thermally induced motion of water molecules in biological tissues, called Brownian motion. Diffusion-weighted MRI (DWI) by means of apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) calculation can be used for in vivo quantification of the combined effects of capillary perfusion and diffusion. With the advent of echoplanar imaging (EPI), DWI of the abdomen has become possible with fast imag...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Conventional imaging lacks sensitivity and specificity for the detection of early subcortical cerebral infarction. The purposes of our study were (1) to determine the accuracy of diffusion-weighted (DW) MRI for early subcortical infarction and (2) to determine the efficacy of DW MRI for differentiating acute from nonacute subcortical infarctions when conventional MR demon...

Motion and deformation are common in prostate diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI) during acquisition. These misalignments lead to errors in estimating an apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) map fitted with DWI. To address this problem, we propose an image registration algorithm to align the prostate DWI and improve ADC map. First, we apply affine transformation to DWI to correc...
