Stimulated Cores and their Applications in Medical Imaging
نویسندگان
چکیده
Representing geometric properties of objects in medical images independent of object size necessarily requires a multiscale, or scale space, analysis. We describe means called cores for representing middle and width properties of greyscale image objects via scale space measurements and describe an efficient algorithm for their computation called stimulated cores. We present applications of stimulated cores in a variety of medical imaging tasks.

Background & Aim: Molecular imaging enables us to non-invasively visualize tissue microstructures and lesion characterization, allowing accurate diagnosis of diseases at early stages. A successful molecular imaging requires a nontoxic contrast agent with high sensitivity. Nowadays, a wide range of nanoparticles have been developed as contrast agents for medical imaging modalities. Here, we revi...
متن کاملOn Optimization of Resilient Rocking Cores
The research leading to this paper was prompted by the need to estimate strength and stiffness of Rigid Rocking Cores (RRCs) as essential elements of resilient earthquake resisting structures. While a limited number of such studies have been reported, no general study in terms of physical properties of RRCs, their appendages and adjoining structures have been published. Despite the growing know...
