Fractal analysis is widely applied to investigate the vascular system in physiological as well as pathological states. We propose and examine a computer-aided and fractal-based image analysis technique to quantify the microvascularity in histological specimens of WHO grade II and III gliomas. A computer-aided and fractal-based analysis was used to describe the microvessels and to quantify their...

Although immunohistochemistry (IHC) is a popular imaging technique, the quantitative analysis of IHC images via computer-aided methods is an emerging field that is gaining more and more importance thanks to the new developments in digital high-throughput scanners. In this paper, we discuss the main steps of IHC and review the techniques for computer-aided chromogenic IHC analysis, including met...

A CAD (computer aided design) analysis software package (CADVIEW) was designed for use with prosthetic and orthotic CAD CAM (computer aided design/computer aided manufacture) systems. Using the Microsoft Windows 3.1 environment, CADVIEW provides a series of anatomical shape viewing and analysis tools. These tools include simultaneous display of multiple sockets and multiple views, two dimension...

Computer graphics is a fast growing field as it contributes significantly to the advancement of modern technology aimed at empowering human and nation wealth creation. Computer-Aided Design (CAD), Computer-Aided Manufacturing (CAM) and Computer-Aided Geometric Design (CAGD) are commonly used to reconstruct surfaces in order to obtain a set of limited and disorganized geometric sample values. Th...

Modeling and simulation of processing plants are widely used in industry. Construction of a mathematical model for a plant is a time-consuming and error-prone task. In light of extensive advancements in computer science (both hardware and software), computers are becoming a necessary instrument in industrial activities. Many software tools for modeling, simulation and optimization of proces...
