Pansharpening fuses spectral information from the multi-spectral image and spatial panchromatic image, generating super-resolution images with high resolution. In this paper, we proposed a novel 3D multi-scale attention convolutional network (MSAC-Net) based on typical U-Net framework for imagery pansharpening. MSAC-Net is designed via convolution, mechanism replaces skip connection between con...

Super-resolution (SR) is a technique that produces a high resolution (HR) image via employing a number of low resolution (LR) images from the same scene. One of the degradations that attenuates performance of the SR is the blurriness of the input LR images. In many previous works in the SR, the blurriness of the LR images is assumed to be due to the integral effect of the image sensor of the im...

introduction:in this study, ecg signals have been embedded into medical images to create a novel blind watermarking method. the embedding is done when the original image is compressed using the ezw algorithm. the extraction process is performed at the decompression time of the watermarked image. materials and methods: the multi-resolution watermarking with a secret key algorithm developed in th...

conclusion osem3d may provide better image quality and higher contrast than other methods for small animal imaging with the new myocardial imaging agent, [18f] fptp. results the location and size of myocardial infarction on pet images correlated closely with that observed with ttc staining. among the four reconstruction methods, osem3d provided the best assessment of infarct size (r2 = 0.994, p...

We propose an effective super resolution reconstruction algorithm based on patch similarity and back-projection modification. In the proposed algorithm, we assume patch to be similar in natural images and extract the high-frequency information from the best similar patch to add into goal high-resolution image. In the process of reconstruction, the high-resolution patch is back-projected into th...

PURPOSE The Ingenuity time-of-flight (TF) PET/MR is a recently developed hybrid scanner combining the molecular imaging capabilities of PET with the excellent soft tissue contrast of MRI. It is becoming common practice to characterize the system's point spread function (PSF) and understand its variation under spatial transformations to guide clinical studies and potentially use it within resolu...

Background Despite recent progress in fast cardiac imaging, respiratory motion remains a challenging problem, usually leading to poor image quality when scanning poor breath-holder patients or acquiring high spatial resolution images. Today respiratory motion is compensated using navigators or external physiological sensors and can result in decreased scan efficiency and increased setup complex...

Photoactivated localization microscopy (PALM) and related fluorescent biological imaging methods are capable of providing very high spatial resolutions (up to 20 nm). Two major demands limit its widespread use on biological samples: requirements for photoactivatable/photoconvertible fluorescent molecules, which are sometimes difficult to incorporate, and high background signals from autofluores...
