Streaking artifacts caused by metallic objects severely affect the visual quality of CT images, resulting in medical misdiagnosis. Commonly used approaches for metal artifact reduction usually consist of interpolation and iterative methods. The former one tends to lose image quality by introducing extra artifacts, while the latter is more computational expensive. This paper proposes a new approach...
In developmental imaging, 3D+t series of microscopic images allow to follow the organism development at the cell level and have now became the standard way of imaging the development of living organs. Dedicated tools for cell segmentation in 3D images as well as cell lineage calculation from 3D+t sequences have been proposed to analyze these data. For some applications, it may be desirable to interpolate...
Three-dimensional (3D) biomedical image sets often have in-plane resolutions that are exceedingly higher than the out-of-plane spacing between images. Image interpolation can be used to reduce the effective out-of-plane spacing. Optical flow and/or other registration-based interpolators have proven useful in interpolating this type of data in the past. When acquired images are comprised of signals...
We propose to use Gaussian process regression to accurately estimate the diffusion MRI signal at arbitrary locations in q-space. By estimating the signal on a grid, we can do synthetic diffusion spectrum imaging: reconstructing the ensemble averaged propagator (EAP) by an inverse Fourier transform. We also propose an alternative reconstruction method guaranteeing a nonnegative EAP that integrates...
In elastography, Conventional Linear Array (CLA) - based RF data acquisition can only provide good quality displacement measurements in the direction of beam propagation (axial direction). For obtaining high-precision Lateral Displacement Estimation (LDE), one of the popular methods is by interpolating A-lines in between neighboring RF A-lines. However, acquiring and utilizing the actual data from...
The relation between normal and pathological aging and the cerebrovascular component is still unclear. In this context, the common marmoset, which has the advantage of enabling longitudinal studies over a reasonable timeframe, appears as a good pre-clinical model. However, there is still a lack of quantitative information on the macrovascular structure of the marmoset brain. In this paper, we investigate...
In the field of medical imaging, atlases are generally used for computer-aided anatomical and functional parcellation of a brain, and for distinguishing which tissue is normal and which is pathologic. The purpose of this paper is to create a set of human brain atlas probability maps, which would be publicly available for clinical and research community and could be applied to computer tomography (CT)...
Fast and accurate registration of image data is a key component of computer-aided medical image analysis. Instead of performing the registration directly on the input images, many algorithms compute the transformation using a sparse representation extracted from the original data. However, in order to apply the resulting transformation onto the original images, a dense deformation field has to be...
