Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAutomatic Boundary Detection of Wall Motion in Two-dimensional Echocardiography ImagesFaten Abed Ali Dawood, Rahmita Wirza Rahmat, Mohd Zamrin Dimon et al.Problem statement: Medical image analysis is a particularly difficult problem because the inherent characteristics of these images, including low contrast, speckle noise, signal dropouts and complex anatomical structures. An accurate analysis of wall motion in Two-dimensional echocardiography images is “important clinical diagnosis parameter for many cardiovascular diseases”. A challenge most researchers faced is how to speed up the clinical decisions … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 8 · 15 Jul 2011 · 8,188 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpartan-3AN Field Programmable Gate Arrays Truncated Multipliers Delay StudyMohammed H. Al MijalliProblem statement: The image processing applications, such as MPEG video compression used in CT scan frames requires real time conditions and the algorithms should be verified and optimized before implementation which cannot be done with Application Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs) because they are not reconfigurable and cost is very high. Approach: The FPGA is a viable technology that could be … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 6 · 13 Jun 2011 · 6,428 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel Approach to Medical Image SegmentationNandagopalan Shanmugam, Adiga B. Suryanarayana, Sudarshan TSB et al.Problem statement: Segmentation is a vital aspect of medical imaging. It aids in the visualization of medical data and diagnostics of various diseases. Ultrasound image segmentation, in particular echocardiographic image segmentation, is required to identify the regions of interest such as Left Ventricle (LV) and other cardiac cavities. Existing methods do not address the drawbacks of speed and quality of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 5 · 7 May 2011 · 7,214 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImplementation of Computer Aided Diagnosis System Based on Parallel Approach of Ant Based Medical Image SegmentationJayabalan Jaya, Keppanagowder ThanushkodiProblem statement: The aim of this study is to develop Computer Aided Diagnosis (CAD) system for the detection of brain tumor by using parallel implementation of ACO system for medical image segmentation applications due to the rapid execution for obtaining and extracting the Region of Interest (ROI) from the images for diagnostic purposes in medical field. Approach: For ROI segmentation, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 25 Feb 2011 · 8,130 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparative Study of the Effect of Lossy and Lossless Block Based Binary Plane Techniques on Medical ImagesNalla Subhash Chandra, Mahaboob Basha Shaik, A. Govardhan, M. BalrajuProblem statement: The general and medical images in specific contain different regions holding information of different significances. To elaborate medical information, the doctor prefers to focus on certain selected region (s) of interest. So for medical images the diagnostically important regions must be preserved at high quality, whereas the rest of the image is required only in a contextual sense. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 11 · 23 Oct 2010 · 7,380 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractParallel Approach for Content Based Medical Image Retrieval SystemM. Emmanuel, D.R. Ramesh Babu, Jayashree Jagdale et al.Problem statement: Parallel implementation of a CBIR system for medical applications due to the rapid progress in the technologies for obtaining and storing digital images for diagnostic purposes in medicine. Approach: For feature extraction Wavelet decomposition was used for texture, global color histograms for color and novel wavelet based approach for shape feature extraction. The system had been implemented in … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 11 · 23 Oct 2010 · 7,631 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExperiment of Tamper Detection and Recovery Watermarking in Picture Archiving and Communication SystemsSiau-Chuin Liew, Jasni Mohamad ZainProblem statement: Medical images such as x-rays, ultrasounds and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) plays an important role in helping the physicians to diagnose a disease or body conditions. These images can be tampered with existing image processing tools that is easily available. The usage of security measures such as watermarking can protect the integrity of the images. Numerous watermarking schemes … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2010 · 7,651 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOn the Application of Artificial Neural Networks in Analyzing and Classifying the Human ChromosomesIbrahiem M.M. El EmaryThis study aimed to represent an advanced software tool assists in analyzing and classifying the human chromosomes. Our new software handles both classifying and analyzing the medical image of human chromosomes according to the following steps: 1- we use the image processing utilities in Matlab to analyze the image; where we provide a new filter to remove the noise depending … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2006 · 7,515 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractField Programmable Gate Arrays Based Realization of Truncated MultipliersMuhammad H. Rais, Mohammed H. Al MijalliProblem statement: Due to high cost and non reconfiguration of Application Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs) in image processing applications, for example MPEG video compression used in CT scan frames requires real time conditions and the algorithms should be verified and optimized before implementation. Approach: Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) provides reconfiguration and implementation at the same time. Results: The implementation … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 7 · 24 Jun 2011 · 6,694 accessesView PDFCite
