چکیده

Dental Radiographs have a valuable aid in the diagnosis of periodontal diseases and the evaluation of treatment effects. Computer-based image acquisition and processing techniques will now further increase the importance of radiography in periodontal diagnosis. Digital Subtraction Radiography (DSR) requires a pair of images with identical gray-level distribution and projection geometry is needed to identify the periodontal diseases. In DSR, a pair of identical images can be obtained without mechanical alignment of patient, film and x-ray source. The drawback of this technique is, if there is any mechanical alignment in the camera view then mismatching will occur in the result. This paper presents a method for automated diagnosis of periodontal diseases using a single radiographic X-ray image which eliminates the requirement of pair of images.

Diagnosis of brain tumor using image processing and determination of its type with RVM neural networks

Typically, the diagnosis of a tumor is done through surgical sampling, which is more precise with existing methods. The difference is that this is an aggressive, time consuming and expensive way. In the statistical method, due to the complexity of the brain tissues and the similarity between the cancerous cells and the natural tissues, even a radiologist or an expert physician may also be in er...
