Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNovel Preprocessing Technique in the Computer Aided Detection of Breast CancerSenthilkumar Balasubramaniam, Umamaheswari GovindaswamyAnalyzing medical images is the most challenging task in medical image processing. Computer Aided Detection (CAD) tool is the aid for the radiologists in analyzing such images for the effective detection and diagnosis of the disease. Such a CAD tool consists of Preprocessing, Segmentation and detection processes. In this study we have improved the preprocessing by using the Selective Median … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 12 · 8 Nov 2012 · 6,651 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVoice Activation Visualization for Echocardiograph and 3D Angiographic Images in SurgeryRahmita W. Rahmat, Mohd Z. Dimon, Zinah R. Hussein, Hasan H. KhalilIn some cases, surgeons need to navigate through the computer system for reconfirmation patients’ details and unfortunately surgeons unable to manage both computer system and operation at the same time. In this paper we propose a solution for this problem especially designed for heart surgeon, by introducing voice activation system with 3D visualization of Angiographic images, 2D visualization of Echocardiography … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 11 · 9 Oct 2012 · 8,304 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Fuzzy Neural Approach for Medical Image RetrievalC. Sriramakrishnan, A. ShanmugamImage retrieval based on a query image is necessary for effective and efficient use the information that is stored in medical image databases. Medical Image Retrieval is difficult as not only the localization and directionality of human visual system is to be considered but also the pathological condition. Image identification and segmentation for feature extraction pose a challenge to image … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 11 · 8 Sep 2012 · 6,670 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 · 7,486 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 · 6,969 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractContent Based Medical Image Retrieval with Texture Content Using Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix and K-Means Clustering AlgorithmsB. Ramamurthy, K. R. ChandranProblem statement: Recently, there has been a huge progress in collection of varied image databases in the form of digital. Most of the users found it difficult to search and retrieve required images in large collections. In order to provide an effective and efficient search engine tool, the system has been implemented. In image retrieval system, there is no methodologies … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 7 · 24 May 2012 · 7,452 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractContent Based Image Retrieval of Ultrasound Liver Diseases Based on Hybrid ApproachR. Suganya, S. RajaramProblem statement: In the past few years, immense improvement was obtained in the field of Content-Based Image Retrieval (CBIR). Nevertheless, existing systems still fail when applied to medical image databases. Simple feature-extraction algorithms that operate on the entire image for characterization of color, texture, or shape cannot be related to the descriptive semantics of medical knowledge that is extracted from … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 6 · 24 Mar 2012 · 7,648 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 · 7,588 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 · 7,727 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSegmentation of Ureteric and Bladder Calculi in Ultrasound ImagesS. SridharProblem statement: The framework for segmenting calculi in ureter and bladder using ultrasound images is proposed in this study. Calculi are due to abnormal collection of certain chemicals like oxalate, phosphate and uric acid. These calculi can be present in kidney, urethra or in urinary bladder. The extraction of calculi in medical images is a difficult task as no standard … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 5 · 27 Feb 2012 · 6,918 accessesView PDFCite
