Video Image Analysis In Pathology

Origins of ... image analysis in clinical pathology.

The term "image analysis" is reserved for a special discipline in pathology that aims to obtain diagnostically important information in an objective and reproducible manner, by measuring and counting. The origins of measuring microscopical images are almost as old as the microscope itself. Leeuwenhoek (fig 1) in the 17th century had developed a system to measure microscopic objects. As a refere...

Two Novel Chaos-Based Algorithms for Image and Video Watermarking

In this paper we introduce two innovative image and video watermarking algorithms. The paper’s main emphasis is on the use of chaotic maps to boost the algorithms’ security and resistance against attacks. By encrypting the watermark information in a one dimensional chaotic map, we make the extraction of watermark for potential attackers very hard. In another approach, we select embedding po...

Digital Image Analysis in Pathology: Benefits and Obligation

Pathology has recently entered the era of personalized medicine. This brings new expectations for the accuracy and precision of tissue-based diagnosis, in particular, when quantification of histologic features and biomarker expression is required. While for many years traditional pathologic diagnosis has been regarded as ground truth, this concept is no longer sufficient in contemporary tissue-...

Multiple Layer Image Analysis for Video Microscopy

Brian S. Eastwood: Multiple Layer Image Analysis for Video Microscopy. (Under the direction of Russell M. Taylor II.) Motion analysis is a fundamental problem that serves as the basis for many other image analysis tasks, such as structure estimation and object segmentation. Many motion analysis techniques assume that objects are opaque and non-reflective, asserting that a single pixel is an obs...
