Abstract:
Segmentation is one of the crucial steps in applications of medical diagnosis. The accurate image segmentation method plays an important role in proper detection of disease, staging, diagnosis, radiotherapy treatment planning and monitoring. In the advances of image segmentation techniques, joint segmentation of PET-CT images has increasingly received much attention in the field of both clinic and image processing. PET - CT images have become a standard method for tumor delineation and cancer assessment. Due to low spatial resolution in PET and low contrast in CT images, automated segmentation

Abstract:
One of the most challenging aspects of medical modalities such as Computed Tomography (CT) as well hybrid techniques such as CT/PET (Computed Tomography/Positron emission tomography) and PET/MRI is finding a balance between examination time, radiation dose, and image quality. The need for a dense sampling grid is associated with two major factors: image resolution enhancement, which leads to a strengthening of human perception, and image features interpretation. All these aspects make an unsupervised image processing much easier. The presented algorithm employs super-resolution-reconstruction

Abstract:
Summary:It was the success of software-based image registration that eventually led to the introduction of hardware-based concepts for image fusion, such as combined PET/CT tomographs. A prototype PET/CT was first presented in 1998, with various commercial designs to follow since 2000. PET/ CT is used primarily as a diagnostic modality in the field of extra-cerebral oncology imaging. The major advantage of combined imaging over retrospective software registration is the nearly identical position of the patient during both complementary examination, and therefore tomograms of identical parts of

Abstract:
Hybrid PET/CT scanners can simultaneously visualize coronary artery disease as revealed by computed tomography (CT) and myocardial perfusion as measured by positron emission tomography (PET). Manual registration is usually required in clinical practice to compensate spatial mismatch between datasets. In this paper, we present a registration algorithm that is able to automatically align PET/CT cardiac images. The algorithm bases on mutual information (MI) as registration metric and on genetic algorithm as optimization method. A multiresolution approach was used to optimize the processing time.

Moreover, the RIS time stamps of these reports were analyzed. 2995 lesions using a set of 41 classification labels (TNM features + location) were manually segmented on the corres

Abstract:
AbstractBackgroundOver the past couple of decades, a number of centers in the brain have been identified as important sites of nociceptive processing and are collectively known as the ‘pain matrix.’ Imaging tools such as functional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) have played roles in defining these pain-relevant, physiologically active brain regions. Similarly, certain segments of the spinal cord are likely more metabolically active in the setting of pain conditions, the location of which is dependent upon location of sym

Abstract:
A recent study from MRI has revealed that there is a minor increase in cerebral-spinal fluid (CSF) content in brain ventricles and sulci, along with a substantial decrease in grey matter (GM) content and brain volume among Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients. It has been discovered that the grey matter volume shrinkage may indicate the possible case of dementia and related diseases like AD. Clinicians and radiologists use imaging techniques like Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), Computed Tomography (CT) scan, and Positron Emission Tomography (PET) to diagnose and visualize the tissue contents of

Learning-based methods have been proved to perform well in a variety of areas in the biomedical field, such as biomedical image segmentation, and histopathological image analysis. Deep learning, as the most recently presented approach of learning-based methods, has attracted more and more attention. For instance, massive researches of deep learning methods for image reconstructions of computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) have been reported, indicating the great potential of deep learning for inverse problems.

Abstract:
Affibody-based imaging of HER3 is a promising approach for patient stratification. We investigated the influence of a hydrophilic HEHEHE-tag ((HE)3-tag) and two different gallium-68/chelator-complexes on the biodistribution of Z08698 with the aim to improve the tracer for PET imaging. Affibody molecules (HE)3-Z08698-X and Z08698-X (X = NOTA, NODAGA) were produced and labeled with gallium-68. Binding specificity and cellular processing were studied in HER3-expressing human cancer cell lines BxPC-3 and DU145. Biodistribution was studied 3 h p.i. in Balb/c nu/nu mice bearing BxPC-3 xenografts. Mi

Abstract:
Summary:In clinical practice different CT imaging protocols are implemented within combined PET/CT acquisition protocols. From a radiologist´s perspective the full potential of PET/ CT for oncology imaging can be used only by exploring the full capacity of the CT. This mandates the use of oral and intravenous contrast material as well as a CT image quality which proves diagnostically sufficient by radiology standards. The integration of a fully-diagnostic CT exam portion into combined PET/CT is demanding and requires adjustments of CT acquisition protocols. Given the use of the CT for CT-based

Patients, methods: Routine whole body scans of 353 patients referred to FDG-PET/ CT exams at 4 university hospitals were employed. All potentially malignant lesions in 13 different body regions/organs were classified as either concordant or suspicious in FDG-PET or CT only. In the latter case the

The Artificial Intelligence (AI) Pet Robot is a culmination of multiple fields of computer science. This paper showcases the capabilities of our robot. Most of the functionalities stem from image processing made available through OpenCV. The functions of the robot discussed in this paper are face tracking, emotion recognition and a colour-based follow routine. Face tracking allows the robot to keep the face of the user constantly in the frame to allow capturing of facial data. Using this data, emotion recognition achieved an accuracy of 66% on the FER-2013 dataset. The colour-based follow rout
