We propose a method for registration of 3D fetal brain ultrasound with a reconstructed magnetic resonance fetal brain volume. This method, for the first time, allows the alignment of models of the fetal brain built from magnetic resonance images with 3D fetal brain ultrasound, opening possibilities to develop new, prior information based image analysis methods for 3D fetal neurosonography. The ...

the incidence of multiple myeloma (mm) affecting the jaws is 30% and on rare occasions the oral involvement can be the first indication of the disease. authors report a case of mm in a 40-yearold woman who presented with a multilocular radiolucent lesion in the left mandible initially mistaken as an ameloblastoma. conventional radiographs revealed a multilocular lesion on the molar region. comp...

abstractneuroimaging allows noninvasive evaluation of the anatomy, physiology, and function of the brain. it is widely used for diagnosis, treatment planning, and treatment evaluation of neurological disorders as well as understanding functions of the brain in health and disease. neuroimaging modalities include x-ray computed tomography (ct), magnetic resonance imaging (mri), single photon emis...

Introduction: Nowadays, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in combination with computed-tomography (CT) is increasingly being used in radiation therapy planning. MR and CT images are applied to determine the target volume and calculate dose distribution, respectively. Since the use of these two imaging modalities causes registration uncertainty and increases department w...

Image segmentation is an essential procedure in many applications of image processing. Image segmentation can be classified to boundary representation and regional representation. Magnetic Resonance Image (MRI) is one of the best technologies currently being used for diagnosing Brain Tumor in advanced stages. MRI is a form of medical imaging using nuclear magnetic resonance of protons in the bo...

BACKGROUND Magnetic resonance imaging studies have reported that lithium can increase the volume of gray matter in the human brain, a finding that has been ascribed to the established neurotrophic or neuroprotective effects of the drug. Lithium, however, might directly influence the intensity of the magnetic resonance signal so it is possible that the volumetric findings are artifactual, essent...

-The most important task in digital image processing is image segmentation. This paper put forward an unique image segmentation algorithm that make use of a Markov Random Field (MRF) hybrid with biologically inspired technique Bacteria Foraging Optimization Algorithm (BFOA) for Brain Magnetic Resonance Images The proposed new algorithm works on the image pixel data and a region/neighborhood map...

we present a case report of bupropion-induced diplopia in a 26-year-old woman who suffered from atypical depression. âfter four weeks of taking bupropion (225 mg per day) she complained of headaches, blurred vision, and diplopia. no neurological and ophthalmologic abnormal signs were found. her brain magnetic resonance imaging (mrï) and magnetic resonance venography (mrv) were normal as well. â...
