Artificial intelligence and machine learning in 2D/3D medical image processing
\"Medical image fusion is a process which merges information from multiple images of the same scene. The fused image provides appended information that can be utilized for more precise localization of abnormalities. The use of medical image processing databases will help to create and develop more accurate and diagnostic tools\"-- Provided by publisher.

Magnetic resonance imaging for groundwater
This text explains the fundamental principles and practical applications of a modern, but respected, hydrogeophysical tool: the magnetic resonance sounding method. Here, Legchenko applies the method to the characterization of aquifers and groundwater-related natural hazards.
BOOK
Practical Image and Video Processing Using MATLAB
UP-TO-DATE, TECHNICALLY ACCURATE COVERAGE OF ESSENTIAL TOPICS IN IMAGE AND VIDEO PROCESSING
This is the first book to combine image and video processing with a practical MATLAB®-oriented approach in order to demonstrate the most important image and video techniques and algorithms. Utilizing minimal math, the contents are presented in a clear, objective manner, emphasizing and encouraging experimentation.
The book has been organized into two parts. Part I: Image Processing begins with an overview of the field, then introduces the fundamental concepts, notation, and terminology associated with image representation and basic image processing operations. Next, it discusses MATLAB® and its Image Processing Toolbox with the start of a series of chapters with hands-on activities and step-by-step tutorials. These chapters cover image acquisition and digitization; arithmetic, logic, and geometric operations; point-based, histogram-based, and neighborhood-based image enhancement techniques; the Fourier Transform and relevant frequency-domain image filtering techniques; image restoration; mathematical morphology; edge detection techniques; image segmentation; image compression and coding; and feature extraction and representation.
Part II: Video Processing presents the main concepts and terminology associated with analog video signals and systems, as well as digital video formats and standards. It then describes the technically involved problem of standards conversion, discusses motion estimation and compensation techniques, shows how video sequences can be filtered, and concludes with an example of a solution to object detection and tracking in video sequences using MATLAB®.
Extra features of this book include:
* More than 30 MATLAB® tutorials, which consist of step-by-step guides toexploring image and video processing techniques using MATLAB®
* Chapters supported by figures, examples, illustrative problems, and exercises
* Useful websites and an extensive list of bibliographical references
This accessible text is ideal for upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in digital image and video processing courses, as well as for engineers, researchers, software developers, practitioners, and anyone who wishes to learn about these increasingly popular topics on their own.

Radiation Detectors and Sensors in Medical Imaging
Medical imaging instrumentation design and construction is based on radiation sources and radiation detectors/sensors. This review focuses on the detectors and sensors of medical imaging systems. These systems are subdivided into various categories depending on their structure, the type of radiation they capture, how the radiation is measured, how the images are formed, and the medical goals they serve. Related to medical goals, detectors fall into two major areas: (i) anatomical imaging, which mainly concerns the techniques of diagnostic radiology, and (ii) functional-molecular imaging, which mainly concerns nuclear medicine. An important parameter in the evaluation of the detectors is the combination of the quality of the diagnostic result they offer and the burden of the patient with radiation dose. The latter has to be minimized; thus, the input signal (radiation photon flux) must be kept at low levels. For this reason, the detective quantum efficiency (DQE), expressing signal-to-noise ratio transfer through an imaging system, is of primary importance. In diagnostic radiology, image quality is better than in nuclear medicine; however, in most cases, the dose is higher. On the other hand, nuclear medicine focuses on the detection of functional findings and not on the accurate spatial determination of anatomical data. Detectors are integrated into projection or tomographic imaging systems and are based on the use of scintillators with optical sensors, photoconductors, or semiconductors. Analysis and modeling of such systems can be performed employing theoretical models developed in the framework of cascaded linear systems analysis (LCSA), as well as within the signal detection theory (SDT) and information theory.
