Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMOBILE COMMUNICATIONS FOR USING IN TELEMEDICINEMarjan Ghazi Saeedi, Mashaallah Torabi, Sakineh Hamidi, Hassan RanjiTelemedicine the use of telecommunication and information technologies in order to provide clinical health care at a distance helps eliminate distance barriers and can improve access to medical services that would often not be consistently available in distant rural communities. It is also used to save lives in critical care and emergency situations. Although there were distant precursors to telemedicine, … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 12 Feb 2014 · 9,985 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn integrated Framework Based on Texture Features, Cuckoo Search and Relevance Vector Machine for Medical Image Retrieval SystemYogapriya Jaganathan, Ila VennilaAs medical images are widely used in healthcare applications, Content Based Medical Image Retrieval (CBMIR) system is needed for physicians to convey effective decisions to patients and for medical research students to learn imaging characteristics for their extensive research based on visual features. However the performance of the retrieval is restricted due to high feature dimensionality of visual features. To … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 11 · 24 Sep 2013 · 6,878 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWavelet Statistical Texture Features with Orthogonal Operators Tumour Classification in Magnetic Resonance Imaging BrainR. Meenakshi, P. AnandhakumarTumors medically also called neoplasms are an abnormal mass of tissue resulting from uncontrolled proliferation or division of cells occurring in the human body. If such growth is located in the brain then it is called as brain tumor. Identification of such tumors is a major challenge in the field of medical science. Early identification of tumors prove to be … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 10 · 5 Sep 2013 · 6,600 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThree Dimensional Reconstruction of Human Heart Surface from Single Image-View Under Different Illumination ConditionsAqeel Al-Surmi, Rahmita Wirza, Mohd Zamrin Dimon et al.The 3D reconstruction from a single-view image is a longstanding issue in computer vision literature, especially in the medical field. Traditional medical imaging techniques that provide information about the heart and which are used to reconstruct the heart model, include Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Computed Tomography (CT) images. However, in some cases, they are not available and the applications … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 7 · 17 Jun 2013 · 7,613 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHybrid Algorithm for Lossless Image Compression using Simple Selective Scan order with Bit Plane SlicingS. N. Sivanandam, A. Pasumpon PandianProblem statement: Identifying the new lossless image compression algorithm for high performance applications like medical and satellite imaging; a high quality lossless image is most important when reproduction which leads to classify the data for decision making. Approach: A new lossless hybrid algorithm based on simple selective scan order with Bit Plane Slicing method is presented for lossless Image compression … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 8 · 28 Jul 2012 · 7,484 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Enhanced Approach for Medical Brain Image EnhancementJ. Umamaheswari, G. RadhamaniProblem statement: One of the most common degradations in medical images is their poor contrast quality and noise. The DICOM image consists of speckle (multiplicative noise). While the image is enhanced, the multiplicative noise present in the image is also enhanced. Approach: This study describes the hybrid method to improve the image quality of Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 8 · 27 Jul 2012 · 6,964 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA New Algorithm for Fractal Coding Using Self Organizing MapS. Bhavani, k. ThanushkodiProblem statement: In medical imaging, lossy compression schemes are generally not used due to possible loss of useful clinical information and also degradations may result in lossy compression owing to operations like enhancement. As the medical images are huge in size a good lossy compression technology is required to store them in medical archives in an economical manner. There is … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 6 · 15 Mar 2012 · 7,583 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMedical Image Compression with Lossless Region of Interest Using Adaptive Active ContourR. Loganathan, Y. S. KumaraswamyProblem statement: With increasing bandwidth, digital medical image storage and transmission is a boon to patients and health professionals alike. Medical images are available instantly and avoid the need to carry the data physically. Popular imaging techniques extensively used in medicine include X-Ray, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), Ultrasound and Computed Tomography (CT). The images produced from the above techniques can … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 5 · 1 Mar 2012 · 7,723 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSegmentation of Medical Image using Clustering and Watershed AlgorithmsM.C. Jobin Christ, R.M.S. ParvathiProblem statement: Segmentation plays an important role in medical imaging. Segmentation of an image is the division or separation of the image into dissimilar regions of similar attribute. In this study we proposed a methodology that integrates clustering algorithm and marker controlled watershed segmentation algorithm for medical image segmentation. The use of the conservative watershed algorithm for medical image analysis … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 12 · 22 Oct 2011 · 8,780 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
