چکیده
This paper describes research into knowledge-based image interpretation in clinical orthodontics. Similar work on knowledge-based methods is reviewed. We consider how a tiered knowledge-based system may provide an effective solution to the problems encountered. An autonomous intelligent segmentation system, for finding model-based features in lateral skull x-ray images, is described. Initial results are given.

An intelligent visual task system for lateral skull X-ray images
This paper describes research into structured, knowledge-based image interpretation. An integrated framework has been developed, within which most tasks associated with the automatic interpretation and analysis of lateral skull X-ray images (cephalometry) can be performed. A model-based image analysis system makes use of a blackboard architecture and multiple knowledge sources. Its performance ...
متن کاملQuantitative Comparison of SPM, FSL, and Brainsuite for Brain MR Image Segmentation
Background: Accurate brain tissue segmentation from magnetic resonance (MR) images is an important step in analysis of cerebral images. There are software packages which are used for brain segmentation. These packages usually contain a set of skull stripping, intensity non-uniformity (bias) correction and segmentation routines. Thus, assessment of the quality of the segmented gray matter (GM), ...
متن کامل3D Skull Warping from 2D X-Ray Lateral and PA Images
Methods Normally the 3D skull data from individual patients can be obtained from CT scanner. However, the overhead expenses and the maintenance costs of a CT machine have deterred many dentists and orthodontists from possessing the machine, so only a few orthodontists use the CT for diagnosis and treatment comparing to the x-ray images that are standard procedures for orthodontic measurements. ...
متن کاملLocal Diagnostic Reference Levels for Some Common Diagnostic X-Ray Examinations In Sabzevar County of Iran
Introduction: Diagnostic reference level (DRL) is a useful tool for the promotion of optimization. The national DRLs (NDRLs) are useful, brief, and robust guidelines for optimizing radiation protection in a country. The aim of this study was to extract the local DRLs (LDRLs) for some common radiologic examination in Sabzevar county. Materials and Methods: There are eight radiology departments ...
متن کاملFuzzy Based Experimental Verification of Significance of Skull Tissue removal in Brain Tumor Image segmentation
In anatomical aspects, magnetic resonance (MR) imaging offers more accurate information for medical examination than other medical images such as X-ray, ultrasonic and CT images. Tumor segmentation from MRI data is an important but time consuming task performed manually by medical experts. Automating this process is challenging due to the high diversity in appearance of tumor tissue, among diff...
