CT and MRI Scans: Different Types of Images
Both CT scanners and MRI scanners can ‘slice’ the body in various directions. Horizontal scans are the most commonly used. Horizontal scans can be compared with slicing off the top of a boiled egg. To get an idea of what a horizontal CT or MRI slice is like, trace your index finger from one ear to the other, passing your cheeks and the tip of your nose along the way. This equals a horizontal MR...

متن کاملFast MRI for repeated scans
Radiological assessment of brain disease progression and response to therapy is often performed with repeated MRI scans acquired every few weeks/months. In these longitudinal studies, each scan is acquired anew without taking into account the information present in previous scans. However, many image regions remain unchanged from one time point to the next, making the difference image between t...
متن کاملFuzzy Connectedness Image Co-segmentation for Hybrid PET/MRI and PET/CT Scans
In this paper, we presented a 3-D computer-aided co-segmentation tool for tumor/lesion detection and quantification from hybrid PET/MRI and PET/CT scans. The proposed method was designed with a novel modality-specific visibility weighting scheme built upon a fuzzy connectedness (FC) image segmentation algorithm. In order to improve the determination of lesion margin, it is necessary to combine ...
متن کاملDeformable Lung Registration for Pulmonary Image Analysis of MRI and CT scans
Medical imaging has seen a rapid development in its clinical use in assessment of treatment outcome, disease monitoring and diagnosis over the last few decades. Yet, the vast amount of available image data limits the practical use of this potentially very valuable source of information for radiologists and physicians. Therefore, the design of computer-aided medical image analysis is of great im...
