The need for systems that can stock, represent, and provide efficient retrieval facilities of images of particular interest is becoming very high in medicine. In this respect, a l...
This paper presents a new Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS), called cbPACS which has content-based image retrieval resources. The cbPACS answers similarity queries...

A novel method for the segmentation of multiple objects from 3D medical images using inter-object constraints is presented. Our method is motivated by the observation that neighbor...
This work presents an efficient and automated method to extract the human cerebral ventricular system from MRI driven by anatomic knowledge. The ventricular system is divided into ...

The presence of speckle in ultrasound images makes it hard to segment them using active contours. Speckle causes the energy function of the active contours to have many local minim...
We use the performance of the Bayesian ideal observer as a figure of merit for hardware optimization because this observer makes optimal use of signal-detection information. Due t...

Abstract. Magnetic resonance tagging is used to quantify and visualize myocardial motion. The lack of tag persistence, however, is often a problem in visualizing motion throughout ...
In this paper, a novel region growing algorithm for segmenting burn wounds in digital photographs of the skin is presented. This segmentation step has been developed as part of a C...
