Image classification is a most important step for image analysis. As the same in medical area especially for diagnosing the disease of the patient, classification plays a great role for the doctors to treat the patient according to the severeness of the diseases. In case of DICOM images it is very tough for optimal identification and early detection of diseases. Classification is a computationa...

In this paper, a distributed PACS (Picture Archiving and Communication Systems) using a network shared file system is proposed. Several distributed hospitals and sites use PACS to manage medical images. For these distributed sites to work together, it is necessary to construct integrated PACS for these distributed files. In the proposed system, the DICOM (Digital Imaging and Communications in M...

Problem statement: One of the most common degradations in medical images is their poor contrast quality and noise. The DICOM image consists of speckle (multiplicative noise). While the image is enhanced, the multiplicative noise present in the image is also enhanced. Approach: This study describes the hybrid method to improve the image quality of Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (...

OBJECTIVES To investigate whether standardizing commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) display devices to the digital imaging and communications in medicine part 14: greyscale standard display function (DICOM part 14: GSDF) would affect the presentation of dental images. METHODS Two COTS display devices from the radiology department of a dental teaching hospital and a laptop computer monitor for ref...

The increasing use of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) requires changes in our diagnosis and treatment planning methods as well as additional training. The standard for digital computed tomography images is called digital imaging and communications in medicine (DICOM). In this article we discuss the following concepts: visualization of CBCT images in orthodontics, measurement in CBCT images...
