An image fusion technique for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and positron emission tomography (PET) using local features and fuzzy logic is presented. The aim of proposed technique is to maximally combine useful information present in MRI and PET images. Image local features are extracted and combined with fuzzy logic to compute weights for each pixel. Simulation results show that the propose...
Fig. 1. Maximum-intensity-projection F-FDG PET image (A), axial non-enhanced CT (B) and fused PET/CT image (C) showing increased tracer uptake corresponding to a 8 cm mass located in the left breast (arrows) with a SUVmax of 22. At hematoxylin and eosin stain the breast mass was composed by large cells arranged into a solid pattern and characterized by abundant vacuolated clear cytoplasm, marke...
In present PET/CT scanners, PET attenuation correction is performed by relying on the information given by CT scan. In the CT-based attenuation correction methods, dual-energy technique (DECT) is the most accurate approach, which has been limited due to the increasing patient dose. In this feasibility study, we have introduced a new method that can implement dual-en...
A combination of four-dimensional computed tomography with (18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (4D CT-FDG PET) was used to delineate gross tumor volume (GTV) in esophageal cancer (EC). Eighteen patients with EC were prospectively enrolled. Using 4D images taken during the respiratory cycle, the average CT image phase was fused with the average FDG PET phase in order to analyze...
Tumor segmentation in PET and CT images is notoriously challenging due to the low spatial resolution in PET and low contrast in CT images. In this paper, we have proposed a general framework to use both PET and CT images simultaneously for tumor segmentation. Our method utilizes the strength of each imaging modality: the superior contrast of PET and the superior spatial resolution of CT. We for...
The use of PET in the staging of patients with NSCLC is cost-effective, mainly due to a reduction in the number of futile operations. The addition of SUVmax to pathologic tumor size identifies a subgroup of patients at highest risk for death as a result of recurrent disease after resection. Tumor staging is more accurate with PET-CT than with CT alone or with PET alone. The greatest source of e...
