Method for Estimating the Intensity Mappingbetween MRI
نویسندگان
چکیده
A method is presented for determining the intensity mapping between MRI images that may have been acquired using diierent sequences or instruments. The method can be applied to fully elastic matching and produces spatially localized probability functions that are capable of representing in an eecient way strong intensity distortions due, for instance, to the shading eeect in MRI.

Statistical intensity correction and segmentation of MRI data
the spatial intensity inhomogeneities that are due to the equipment. This paper describes a statistical method that uses knowledge of tissue properties and intensity inhomogeneities to correct for these intensity inhomogeneities. Use of the Expectation-Maximization algorithm leads to a method (EM segmentation) for simultaneously estimating tissue class and the correcting gain eld. The algorithm...
متن کاملPotential positive MRI contrast agent based on PVP-grafted superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles with various repetition times
Objective(s): The present study aimed to evaluate the capability of synthesized and modified superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) as the positive contrast agent in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) by investigating the effect of repetition time (TR) on the MRI signal intensity. Materials and Methods: SPIONs were synthesized using the co-precipitation method, and their surfac...
متن کاملEstimating IDF based on daily precipitation using temporal scale model
The intensity –duration –frequency (IDF) curves play most important role in watershed management, flood control and hydraulic design of structures. Conventional method for calculating the IDF curves needs hourly rainfall data in different durations which is not extensively available in many regions. Instead 24-hour precipitation statistics were measured in most rain-gauge stations. In this stud...

This paper uses the results of river suspended sediment flux (SSF) analysis to propose a new hydrological method for quantitatively estimating the river bed and drainage basin (sheet erosion, rill and gully erosion) components of total erosion intensity in river basins. The suggested method is based on the establishment of the functional power connection between mean monthly water discharges (W...
متن کاملBrain Volume Estimation Enhancement by Morphological Image Processing Tools
Background: Volume estimation of brain is important for many neurological applications. It is necessary in measuring brain growth and changes in brain in normal/abnormal patients. Thus, accurate brain volume measurement is very important. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the method of choice for volume quantification due to excellent levels of image resolution and between-tissue contrast. St...
