This volume of Springer’s Lecture Notes in Computer Science series records th the proceedings of the 8 International Workshop on Digital Mammography (IWDM), which was held in Manchester, UK, June 18–21, 2006. The meetings bringtogetheradiversesetofresearchers(physicists,mathematicians,computer scientists, engineers), clinicians (radiologists, surgeons) and representatives of industry, who are jointly...
The Digital Database for Screening Mammography (DDSM) is an invaluable resource for digital mammography research. However, there are two particular shortcomings that can pose a significant barrier to many of those who may want to use the resource: 1) the actual mammographic image data is encoded using a non-standard lossless variant of the JPEG image format; 2) although detailed metadata is provided,...
The appearance of tissue in mammograms is altered by the presence of a mass. Existing mass synthesis methods have not addressed this structural deformation. We present a method for modifying the fine-scale detail in regions of digital mammograms. Regions are decomposed into sub-bands localised in scale and orientation using a wavelet-like decomposition. New structures are synthesised in the high frequency...
Background. Transplant teams evaluate potential organ and tissue donors to exclude donation of tissues at risk for disease transmission. Standards dictate that serological tests be performed on every donor to assess the presence of transmissible diseases including: Human Immunodeficiency Virus 1 & 2, Human T Lymphotropic Virus 1 & 2, Hepatitis C, Hepatitis B surface Antigen, Hepatitis B core...
